Hi I'm Sam and I am new to this site. I have a Z4 3l completely standard (just had to replace a nearly new run flat tyre at great expense) so any hints and tips on how to make it look or go better would be appreciated

Welcome :-)

The first thing I did when I had the e90 320d is get rid of the runflats and replace with regular Bridgestone's, it improved the ride so much and worked out about 35 pounds a tyre less.

A remap is good for 12-15bhp but combine that with a decent exhaust and your looking at about 210bhp.

MUCCCCCHHH better matey

Let us not talk about MPG and BMWs flagship series in the same thread again ^_^

I won't mention mpg again.

That 740i is so tempting!

Found another better priced example but its a 740i, not sure how thirsty it would be on a long run.

Nice wheels though.

Seems a bit over priced but looks like a really nice example http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/bmw/7-series/bmw-7-series-735i-v8-4dr-auto--1-owner--nav--leather/1025986

Im sure someone will correct me if im wrong but the Clubsport is pretty much a regular 330ci but has a manual gearbox, the sound deadening removed from under the bonnet and larger rear spoiler.

Think they were available in Estoril blue unlike the regular 330ci.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys :-)

Im not sure to be honest, as much as I love my Type R I originally got it for my 29 mile commute to work and I fitted engine mount inserts, unsilenced centre exhaust and Spoon N1 replica backbox so its extreamly loud.

However I now work 490miles from where I live and every 2 weeks I have to put up with the noise for the whole 490mile journey so it would be nice to have another Beemer for comfort.

I was thinking of an E38 728i but not sure what sort of mpg to expect on a 490mile motorway journey?

Hey guys,

Im new to forum and havn't owned a BMW for about a year now but thinking of getting another one.

Anyway just thought id say hello.
