Any thoughts on it?
owner's a mechanic, so has done the last service or two himself. according to rta website as of tonight, he hasn't renewed rego. alas, it seems to be optioned with adaptive headlights which is a first i have seen for a 130i (bmw vin decoder website). never did a ppsr search on it though as i lost interest and searched for a car with lower km's. sell me the rims if you buy it

I'm in WA so the rego lapsing is not an issue as I'd need to re-rego it over here anyway.

Did you go and see it? If so what's the general condition of the car like? It looks nice from the photos but am interested to know about any nicks etc and just how well the car presents in the light of day?

I'm going to call the guy later today - I sent an email earlier in the week but he hasn't answered that.

Looks like it has a fair few factory options that are nice - sunroof, cruise control and an early satnav??

I never inspected it, just enquired once. From the photos it seems pretty clean, but I cannot confirm if it presents the same in person.

As for being in WA, I can suggest you ask the seller to take the car down the road to Advan Performance for a PPI. They're ~10 mins away from the seller.

It has an aftermarket sat nav unit.

Was talking to a mechanic in South Sydney (specialises in BMWs) who offered me to change my exhaust and put a chip in, saying i will increase power by 20%, for around $1000. Not sure how i get a new exhaust from that, so im assuming he will remove the weak point of it and weld it back up. Is this possible or is he p1ssing in my ear, $1,000 for 40kw is pretty enticing!

I find it hard to believe, as most mods have read about have not increased perfromance. Just changed the noise.

Just wondering is the iDrive version in the 130i CCC?

Does it support playing music over bluetooth (A2DP) or just phone calls only?

It's CCC if it's the pre-LCI version, and the LCI got the option of the widescreen CIC.

The CCC doesn't support music over bluetooth, but you can kinda overcome that by buying a 3.5mm bluetooth dongle and plugging it in to the AUX input.

Thanks for the reply.

I can still see some of the cars after 2007 have the power steering tank, thought they changed it to electric steering after LCI. For example this car on carsales is 2009 and still has the power steering tank.

Did LCI front bumper change? How can you tell if a 130i is LCI? LED rear tail lights?

I'll probably have to do an android head unit swap.

Rear tail lights and interior doorcards with leather patches are the easiest.

that car in question is mine actually. definitely a 09 LCI.

the head unit is different too. slightly different air con controls. the lci has chrome surrounds to the dials. headlamp cover is glass too instead of plastic.

bmw took away xenons in the lci model making them an optional extra. same for the sunroof. why they would do that in the halo model I dont know.

but yes. having owned both pre lci and lci models the easiest way is to check the tail lights and door cards. rest of its quite subtle.
