andyg

so, no one for paintballing,any good ideas for a meet running up to xmas, it would be good to do a night in leeds, sheffield,manchester etc, few beers and that must be a few holiday inns with good secure car parks and cheap overnight rates!

welcome to the club,send us some pics,however cant seem to be able to upload mine?? (probably doing somthing wrong!)

hi all just signed up to checkout the forums and see whats what, just bought a 2004 X3 M-tec 2.5 and ready to find out the dangers within

i think i need to buy an i phone! my blackberry does sod all!but sounds kinda cool if u can do it from a phone(just dont turn right with your window open!) :lol:

lol Ive been doing it with my phone for AGES lol pretty nice idea just hammers the battery....completely pointless and gets pointless when you go round a corner and your phone falls off the dash lol

have fun! whats the worst that could happen, i have to work in mine 24-7 it can be more fun than a ride at alton towers! :lol:

Wont be buying them, but its my first winter in a RWD car.

Its twitchy it the wet so might have to stick with the FWD when the snow comes:angry:

haha!! lol :lol: you do have a point , will just keep it moving though, you cant drift from a standstill!i will stick to the main roads

why would you want new tyres in drift season

;)

lol

has anyone purchased the new winter tyre package? think they could be useful with the winter being tipped as worse than last year, but a grand for the set?think i may stick to my shovel :lol:

i wont have that problem the amount mine burns! thinking of getting shares in castrol, i think im one of their main contributors :lol:

reckon its a real ##### to park!haha :lol:

am i the unluckiest beemer driver in the world? as some of you know i had a turbo failure at 40 odd thousand miles, got it fixed a week b4 warranty ran out, still burning oil! took it back for exploritory checks, oil burn now within tolerances "apparently", but had to have it back again today due to the mecahnic not tightening up the intakes on the mannifold and it was buzzing and resonating like hell! think its ok now, what next! :unsure:

congratulations, hope you have a happy life together and all that, lucky guy by the photo!

welcome :D is the beemer a new purchase?

sitting here wondering whether i can fit a heads up display in my 3 series, lets be honest with the amount of traffic enforcement around these days you seem to be encouraged to watch the speedo and not the road,so a heads up may tick the box of being able to do both , has anybody tried this or knows of the price to get it put in :D

Welcome to the club,

might be a while before you get the top off, unless you have a warm waterproof coat. lol

Hi All,

Just found the club so have joined up. Now driving E46 330 Ci Sport Convertible with hard top. Not my first BMW but is the best I have owned.

hiya mate,

if live in e yorks check out bmtech in hessle hull, probabaly will work out cheaper paying as you go and taking the risk (these guys are alot cheaper than main dealer and are backed by bmw)

bad luck mate, you will have the accident mgmt companies calling you to ask about your neck next, i got a shunt last year in my celica and insurance where more interested in the injury than getting my motor back on the road (told em not interested, thats why we all pay too much for car insurance) all the false claims!

......and some t##t runs into the back of me :angry:

its miles per gallon has gone up dramatically, and i need all i can get (i have a heavy foot!)

wow thats a stroke of luck! should drive like a new car once you have had it back!

Hi Steve,

Yeh about a ltr,arent sure if this is just normal usage now, getting a bit paranoid after the turbo incident though

Not the first time I have heard about this problem

How much does it burn? 1 ltr a month?
