biggerbigneil 0 Posted April 19, 2007 Cheers Guys, didn't think it was the right place but the majority of people on BMW forums are really arrogant so thought I'd stay here haha Andi should really expand to atleast a TT forum with the amount of owners on here, then an M3 section would be nice also!

biggerbigneil 0 Posted April 19, 2007 This one drives very well, test drove one at Vines of Guildford in a very nice Oxford Green, which I thought looked perfect. Took Hugo along (house mate who is a technician for Barons BMW), he said it had been in a crash, good person to know! Anyway that one was near double the price and the steering wheel shook, wheels were kurbed and disks, pads, tyres needed changing. This one is on schnitzer suspension, custom 19" splits (8.5 at the front and 9.5 at the rear), new tyres, disks, pads, FBMWSH and is so much more fun to drive than a standard one. In my view a better purchase than a MK5 GTI or RS4 but I guess I'm preaching to the wrong croud as Ben and Hugo would much rather have the RS4 (estate) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lippy 0 Posted April 19, 2007 nice schnitzer and alpina mods always look good IMO. Shows your not the usual BMW sheep aswell! ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrishill 0 Posted April 19, 2007 I've always like the E46 M3's, loads of road presence coupled with great performance and BMW quality. Nice example there, enjoy! Andi should really expand to at least a TT forum with the amount of owners on here, then an M3 section would be nice also! how about an 'interlopers' forum for members who no longer own corrado's but want to show off their new toys? :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy665 0 Posted April 19, 2007 Lovely looking car, could not be misaken for a regular coupe - whereas the new 3 series coupe is a stunning car I don't think the new M3 looks different enough. Only problem with this car (and many others) is that they're so damned capable and refined that you have no sense of drama. Good friend of mine got rid of his Schnitzer M3 after 6 months because it was TOO competent - a problem I'd happily live with Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
