Saw a VO 1M going up the Wakehurst Parkway. Looked amazing.

I also see everyday on my way to work an AW 125i with Msport heading along Mona Vale Rd. Anyone on the forum?

Hahaha, my M3 was in there that afternoon too, it had an overnight sleepover to have it's battery replaced (grrrrr $1100 later + $300 for some new mats)

The 1M goes in there tomorrow AM for it's diff oil replacement, belatedly, cause they didn't have the fluid when she went in for her first service some weeks back . Oh yeh, hopefully this time they won't drive the car 16k's on their test ride

16k's is a very long test drive. I would say something otherwise you'll have 30+ on your 1M too. I can't get over these battery prices I wonder how much aftermarket batteries cost?

Hi Alpine, I am having my car serviced next Wednesday at Rolfe, did they change your transmission fluid too? was it the correct one (LT5)?

The guy seemed keen, and was a previous 135i owner, however he called me a short while later and said his wife was going into labour so couldn't make a decision about the car. Ah well, a few more people have gotten in touch and seem keen. Took some new photos this arvo with the factory rims (261) fitted with new rubber.

Was at Brisbane BMW today... Saw an AW 1M with Euro plates **FUN**.

Said hey to the driver... don't know if he's a member here or not but he was in too much of a hurry to stop and talk... just got a grunt of acknowledgment on the way past...

Pictures just don't do them justice... Those flared fenders REALLY give the car some presence...

I must admit, the plates looked pretty cool on his car. I think my power surprised him although we never got to run it properly. I still think it's crazy how a modded N54 gives the bigger M3 and M5 drivers a big shock! He seemed to know what the 135i was about as he'd been stalking me for a little while. We both floored it from about 30km/hr in 1st gear and I swear my car sounded louder which really surprised him and his wife. But I'm sure once you wind out that sweet V10 it's a much louder beast!
