Well, that went quickly-I’ve had my 20i e89 for a whole year now & nothings fallen off (apart from the wheels )
After my previous e89 experience I was a bit nervy to start with, listening for any slight change of tone or the sound of the gearbox devouring itself :?
I needn’t have worried as It’s been superb, holding its own on a eurotrip that took us all the way to Monaco in the company of a 3.0si and a z4m

It’s never going to sound as good as a six, but in every other respect this car has surpassed expectations I had for it.
No regrets and recommended

Good news Rob , id certainly not be put off the 20i as once tweaked provide a great combination

I recognise those cars Rob
I can’t believe it’s been a year since we were arranging that trip!!
The car goes well mate and you’ve got all that extra storage room under the bonnet so it’s a win win

You’re looking more like Santa every day :lol:

With the free time you have next year you can take Mrs Bear on an extended euro trip for a month or two :wink:

I must admit, that thought had crossed my mind 8)
Still waiting for my sodding letter from work though :roll:

If I was you mate I’d do it. You now know m how easy it is to travel in Europe so why not see more of it?
You’ve the added bonus that your old 4 pot probably does 2000 miles to a tank full if you’re not racing me from the tolls

 

[Paulr]

A year! Get away! Doesn’t seem a few. Weeks ago you were introducing us all to it, wow, time flies.

 

[Marlon]

That went quick - looks like it proved a good decision

 

[buzyg]

The way you describe it the 2ltr turbo lump in the E89 has far less character, than the 2ltr Turbo lump in my Fiat Coupe had.

I’ve had my 20i e89 for a whole year now & nothings fallen off

Never had that problem with the Fiat. :? Bits where always falling off. :lol:

You have to congratulate him on achieving a speeding ticket with it as well

That year did indeed go quickly though.
