I have zero knowledge of e90s so I'm doing a lot of reading at the moment. Awesome car though.
that car is sweeeeet that youve brought - its got the lip spoiler too right and dark lines, also loved the gloss black diffuser

Enjoy it mate there a dream to own

Just saying hi to everyone on the forum. I purchased a 2008 320d E92 a few weeks ago in white and I stubbled across this forum looking for pictures of e92s with csl wheels.

I've got a few things in mind that I want to do to the car but at the moment it's just going to be new wheels as one of mine has two hairline cracks

Hi all,

I'm Berty from London and I have a 320d MSport which is my introduction to BMWs and I've owned her for about a year now..... Love it! I absolutely love DIY projects and will be looking to upgrade my headlamps along with a few other bits soon. I am looking forward to great advice from you guys and hopefully contribute where I can. If there are any meets in or around London, give me a shout!

Hi all, first post on here so be gentle!!

I picked up my latest motor on thursday night... had a 123d 3dr for the last 16 months or so and changed to a 320d Coupe as we were looking to get a slightly bigger car anyway.

Fairly chuffed with the 3, decent spec incl Pro navigation, Enhanced bluetooth, voice control, USB interface, cruise, full leather, 19"wheels and no doubt a few other things I've forgotten... this has got the 181bhp engine whereas the 1 series was 204bhp, not too disappointed with less power as overall the 3 is comfier to drive.

Anyway, enough talking and a few photos...

The old one first...



And my latest one...









Thanks for looking!

Craig

Hi, been lurking around for a while, finally picked this up last night,



318d SE Business Edition, to be honest I'm a little disappointed, well thats wrong I'm happy with the car but I may have rushed into it and got the wrong spec, it doesn't have cruise control and I can't stream music from my phone. Still its nothing that can't be modded, on the list are wheels, de chrome the grill and maybe some tints.

One thing I have been trying to find out is the official spec, all the decoder sites I fine doesn't recognise the VIN, do does anyone know where I might find the details?

connor.

Been part of the forum for ages, but now back here after joining the fold again.

Had an alpine white 320d m sport coupe back in 2008 and only sold it as i was doing too many miles and the company i worked for went under. Then got divorced..........bad times.


I've run a few high revving honda's but now wanted something more civilised. picked this up last week.



Sorry about the crap photo of the rear, only one I have at the min.

Its another 320d and i'm well happy with it. One quick question, can the rear spolier i have be removed? i'm not a fan. Is it stuck or bolted?

Hello everyone

I am new to the forum and not sure if I can just advertise like this, if not would somebody please move this post to the correct area. I’ve been selling tyres on ebay and a buyer suggested that I post up on here. I deal with BMW tyres so if anybody is interested in keeping it Original Equipment, I can get 18 and 19 inch runflats for any model of BMW. Prices for a pair are £280-£300. Delivery is £20 or you can collect from me in Slough, Berkshire. All brand new with recent manufacture dates. Message me on 07960878409, Mandeep

Hi everyone. I've just registered on the forum, looking to buy an E90 and found plenty of useful information so far. I used to own an E90 Alpina D3 mono turbo which I really enjoyed in particular the ride and handling I thought was great. Looking to buy a 330i or 335i this time!

Forgot to mention, the original plan was to go for a 320si as they look like they might be a really fun car, but after finding out about the liner cracking issues, I've decided that it's too much of a risk, hence the 330i or 335i decision.

hello all...

Heres mine I've had it a month got it off a fellow BMW fan, this was his 5th!!! 330 D M Sport, its had the swirl flaps removed and had the inlet manifold de-choked before I got it...its got stacks and stacks of history including the original bill of sale £36000 8 years ago ouch!!!


it had the ally inserts in the dash and doors which over time had started to scratch and wear so out came the carbon wrap....

I do like to mod my cars to OEM+ but im trying to resist with this car going to far. So far I've
1.Carbon wrap dash/door inserts
2.Carbon wrapped the rear diffuser
3.Added 12mm hubcentric wheel spacers to the rear.
4.Xenon Led total interior bulb swap
5.Wrapped/Amber coloured my front fogs
6.Re sprayed my kidney grills gloss black
7.Painted my inner rear lights with red glass paint to match up like Lci rear lights


For now that's it, future plans include E-maps Remap, Im thinking a Carbon rear CSL style ducktail spoiler ( im on the fence on this one ) and possibly some 19" volssens ...
