[songsaboutmycat]

Whats an asshole fan club?

 

for pendantic people n people who own bmws 

 

bt otherwise wateva floats ur boat, im not gnna judge 

[cort16]

I've had 3 of these. I bought them all on the same day .

 

V reg red 318i - Brilliant car I used for a my daily for a bit. Not fast but good all around. Would buy again. 

X reg 316i auto - 1 owner from new who was blind and never serviced it. New wings fitted and had full giffer JRG with caramac interior. Drove lovely after a new MAF was fitted and an engine flush and oil changed stop the oil light flashing. Sold it to my mates 82 year old grand dad who sharked me on the deal.

 

52 plate "golden goose" 320d with a new turbo, which failed to run correctly and made horrible wirring noises for a bit. Spent ages tinkering, 1 miles from the house it blew up and wouldn't start again. I sold it to a local lad who had it running a month or so later but I've never been able to bring myself to ask what was wrong.

 

All of them had the airbag light on.

 

Not discouraged I bought a 520i, which finally put me off BMW's for ever. Here they are best to worst.

WW. Don't listen to the miserable buggers, it's just jealousy.

 

(Watch the rush for tickets in a few days when you call Roffle.)

I was about to suggest you Google it, thought better of the idea immediately.

[Pillock]

TooSavvy, can you translate please?

[songsaboutmycat]

i likke proytonz

[bub2006]

I'm confused. I think toosavvy has lost the competition though. Love the BMW either way. I wouldn't mind trying one.

[songsaboutmycat]

1.5 proton wel quicker than that bmw shed lol

[Dave_Q]

I suspects that songsaboutmycat is actually another poster in disguise* doing the subtle* trolling.

[bub2006]

The thought crossed my mind. Too suspicious?

[Lord Sterling]

Yo Bubz. I did offer you to try my e46 but you didn't like it because (understandably) you found it too claustrophobic I seem to recall.

[rantingYoof]

I drove a 530 manual (2002 flavour) and the weird driving angle put me off - you seemed to be orientated differently to the pedals, or something.

 

Or maybe the one I drove was catastrophically fucked...

[spike60]

When i first came on AS I liked the way every vehicle and everybody was accepted with irreverent good humour regardless of what they it were, there was little genuine negativity but even without our departed troll this seems to be changing a little. Not for the better in my eyes. So what if it's not your bag? If we all liked the same stuff it would be just yet another car forum.

[Jim Bell]

Wise words indeed.

[Dave_Q]

For what it's worth I APPROVE the rescue of a low spec 4-banger BMW from under some leaves. 

 

I've just spent the purchase price of this car on a set of tyres and a few other bits for my Subaru - who got the best deal, the man with new tyres or the man with a WHOLE EXECUTIVE GERMAN VEHICLE?

[surprisingskoda]

Conor informed me today that a mate of his cannot sell an E46 332i with long test, coilovers and an LSD for £400.

 

ENJOY!

I would question that strongly, given that the only factory e46 lsd was in the m3 and it's £700+ for the rear end all of which is needed to fit into a non m3.

Or maybe it has a £1000 quaife or kaaz lsd in it...

Or maybe it's welded.

[Craig the Princess]

Aren't most of the negative comments meant to be tongue in cheek?

 

Swop 4 Xbox m8?

[Jim Bell]

Thats it.

Im deleting ALL of my posts and flouncing off to tell everyone on twitter that Ive flounced off so everyone knows that Ive flounced off.

Just think, your A/S secret Santa present could have been a leaf blower.

[Jim Bell]

Ok Im staying. But juts to see if my AS secret santa present is a leaf blower. And to see if Bollox can 3d print manifold flaps. And also for the roffles. And for the likes. But NOT because I want to.

[inconsistant]

Leaveblower is a bit Pistonheads. Autoshite is more bent rake.

[bub2006]

Yo Bubz. I did offer you to try my e46 but you didn't like it because (understandably) you found it too claustrophobic I seem to recall.

Situation changed slightly. I've even taken to non power steering. Will have to try again!

[andy18s]

Would that be a powerfully built leaf blower?.......

[Shep Shepherd]

I really want to see how well the car scrubs up. As far as I can tell, it looks to be pretty sound under the gunge. I wonder why it was taken off the road in the first place?

[5speedracer]

You'll be telling us you want your life back and to stay out of the limelight next, a'la Nigel.

That's a fairly early N42 B20, Valvetronic of oil leaks. If it's smoking, the rings are shagged - common on neglected ones. Plus the usual E46 shite - rust, brake pipes, rust, door locks, wishbones, rust etc. A solid one does drive well but if it's burning oil, don't spend a bean more than is necessary to MOT it. 

 

I've got a 2007 E90 with this engine, just replaced the timing chain assy at 100k. Great when they run properly, fucking horrid when they don't.
