Just picked mine up this morning , m sport plus with a sun roof and heated electric seats , the hand over guy got an easy morning as I'm not interested in all the techy stuff , he laughed when I told him I don't know how to work my phone , never mind connect it to the car :lol:
It's a great piece of kit and very quick , sounds great too .
I'd recommend one if your thinking of buying a small quick estate .

Ha , I'm that inept with computers I don't know how to post them , I tried abracadabra and waving a chopstick around as I don't have a magicians wand but it doesn't work :lol:
It looks like a slightly lower mineral grey touring on 19s with oyster dark oyster interior , panoramic roof makes a big difference .

Can you not borrow any 8 year old for 5 minutes? They will show you how to upload pics.

If I managed it, then anyone can.

My neighbours have 2 young sons but as good a friend as they are I'm not going to knock on their door and ask for their children ! It's a bit Rolf Harris :o
It's a great car though , it's a smack in the mouth that the wife is the main user , I'll have to make do with my 14 year old mitsubishi l200 pick , workers model with wind up windows ! Or my raggy old 2ks worth of slk :headbang:
That said , the sales guy said it was a first that someone said they caught the bus over to pick their new car up , it was also the first 340 they had supplied .

I've no idea what any of that means , seriously , it may as well be in Chinese , root of the problem is I've no interest in technology so no interest in learning about it . The wife just got me an I phone type telephone and it took me 2 days to work out how to send a text , even to the extent if removing the SIM card and putting it back in my ancient £8 tesco phone that didn't even have a camera :D
 
Just wondering how you're getting on with your 340i now it's run in? Enjoying the sunroof, happy with the adaptive suspension etc etc?

30+ mpg possible on a longer run?

Getting tempted to change my 525d and Z4M for one.

Was looking on the F30 forum and found these pictures, lovely!

That last one looks like a 340d ?
 
Waiting for a call back from a dealer to see what my 5 series is worth as a trade in, or not worth as the case will no doubt be!

MPPK due to be released will give it 360bhp and a M Performance exhaust sound track

Nope, but that's fine with me as an all in one car. Odd as the 335i was.

Drove one yesterday and the box worked really well with that engine!!! Quicker shifts than in my F11 5 series!

Can you get manual gearboxes with these?

Its strange that they offer a manual gearbox for the 340i Saloon yet don't offer it with the 340i Touring :?

Tourings must only be purchased by old people by the look of it then! :lol:

Mine looks exactly like that but with a panoramic sunroof , I like the roof as it makes it feel less claustrophobic , suspension is noticeable between settings , 4 pot brakes are strong .
It seems to be mid thirties on a run back to Durham at Xmas and now it's got a couple of thousand miles on it's genuinely fast when trying to make progress , gearbox is great in all settings and manual mode .
I can't really fault it but I've always liked fast estates , I'll be keeping it when the wife decides on which convertable to buy , she's down to a boxster or slk , slk 350 looks amazingly good value when a couple of years old , boxster at the same age is almost twice the price !
Sorry , neither of us can get away with the e89 z4 .
