yeh its true. i gonne get my mom's 1 in less then 2 years. i won't gonne get many mods because i like the car in the current setup. but i will get some mods (sutch as the m sport package, tinted windows). i deffinetly like the car because of the light package, this includes the little leds under the handle's to open the door and some leds in the intereur of the car (srry fr my english )

i dont think people shouldn't have respect for your car because of the engine. because afterwords its the driver that makes the difference (not saying that a 135i wouldnt defeat a 118).

the car i gonne own is a 118d. i dont have the "your car has bad specs" problem because in belgium taxes are REALLY high and because its very hard to get an insurance with a car with over 150hp when your like 18-20 years. and because belgium's youth seem to prefer driving old cars instead of new ones (or do the parents prefer this??). and plus in belgium the cops are , how shall i call them, bastards. for exemple: your car is parked and you'r on your way to get a ticket but by the time you get back you already got a parkin ticket (some cop gave this). and drive 30km to fast and your gonne crap your pants when you see the speeding ticket.

anyway, nice car! i hope you enjoy it.
keep me up-to-date with pics of your mods

greetz from belgium!

Much better. It is a great improvment over when you bought it. I really love the look of your hatch...keep it up!
