    I have one (bought 2 months ago). Fuel about 28-30mpg steady around urban areas. Motorway, sensible gets 33-36 mpg, so not much worse than diesel 120d when factoring in extra £ of diesel. The best thing is, it's not a 3 series. It's not the sensible choice. They are rare!
  3. Hi had same issue with same year model in feb. does the car start ok? Very common for glow plugs to die. Only make start a little rough belay below freezing. So unless you feel engine is compromised leave it.... Wiper sounds like a) fuse is blown- have you tried to switch on whilst it was frozen over? B) dodgy relay G
  4. The size you mentioned are on mine stock, but yours look great on the pic, why change the? I like the hatch in that colour with the stock wheels....
  5. Tony, reckon you need an expert to testify that if you hit the bump at the road speed limit it will damage your car . Also take photo of bump and include a pen or tape measure for scale with today's paper and email to yourself that same day. They are sneaky at going back and filling potholes whilst claim is in pipeline. It will be a long and bureaucratic process!

  7. Hi Ben, I have just picked up my 2009 135i. Dealer tried to sell me one, got two years thrown in. Spoke to indi BMW specialist about remap and mentioned the cover. They can get funny about claims, want to send their own techi to look over car first. Make sure u keep the car serviced via vat regd garage or could void. Make sure they use genuine parts or could be void. Ultimately they will try and wiggle out of coughing up...
