So long Z4 hello M135i

[TitanTim]

Sad day today to let the Zed go so was out early for a last drive before collecting the new motor at 10am, just a shame it rained so was unable to get the roof down Will miss the Zed a motor with lots of plusses and the odd minuses.

And so onto the M135i and a completely different car, looks are marmite but I like it, the engine is a creamy peach and the ride on the adaptive suspension sublime and very comfortable. Car is fitted with Michelin Pilot Super Sports which seem very sticky and completely different to the runflats I've had on the last few BMWs. This is the first F Series car I've owned and amazed with the techy stuff in the iDrive etc.

As for performance have taken it easy today but the exhaust has some lovely crackles and pops on the overrun but trying to keep revs below 4500 :?

Enjoy Tim. Only had a passenger ride in one but sounded great and went well. They are as quick as the 4M's so I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun.

Cheers Lee, did think of Auto Box after the original test drive, its a very fast change and impressive but still prefer a manual

Good stuff Tim. Weren't tempted by MP exhaust?

Funnily enough though, I picked up mine yesterday after chopping in the 35i. EB 5dr Manual :wink:

Looks great Tim! The red leather never photographs great but good combo. Just remember not to give it the beans when taking your mother out!

Was there a reason you didn't want to wait 2 months and get it on a 64 plate or was this deal related?

I like the colour combo Richard

Nice spec, not too keen on the model but nice toys.

What is that in the air vent?

[Bradders75]

You should have kept both!

 

[Angie4m]

What is that in the air vent?

A BMW Air freshener. Called natural air for some mad reason

[TitanTim]

Thanks all, yes its the BMW air freshner holder lol currently inserted with green tea aroma

Half tempted with the M performance exhaust but I think its around 900 quid for the back box only and usure for that money if the sound is worth it over standard.

Richard, Coral and Silver, its the only combo to have

I couldn't part with the Z3 over the Z4 so the 4 had to go
