A New Face

JBT2 · 11-05-2016, 02:26 PM

Hello all.

Recently acquired a lovely little one owner, titanium silver, manual, 135i from a 1 Addict. I've wanted one of these since the model was released.

I've only had the car a few days and just love it. Doing the usual "bonding" things with it at the moment and learning how everything works etc.

I hope to be a useful contributor to this forum. See you out on the road sometime.

More bonding. Changed the oil and filter on Monday.

Wheel alignment done today at Accurate Suspension - it was quite a bit off and drives farrrr better now after Ken's magic. Tyre pressures have also been changed (virtually reversed the front to rear recommended pressures) to reduce the tendency to understeer. I'll try this combination but, will keep an eye out for an E92 M3 front sway bar anyway.

Took the Mrs in it for a 143km loop run this morning over Mt Nebo, Mt Glorious, Pine Mtn etc. What a fantastic little car.
