Smile My Imola Red 330i Sport

OK, I know it's not a Scoob, but.......

I cleaned my car yesterday because it was black! LOL Thought I'd take a couple of pics. It's done 122,000 miles and is still running as sweet as a nut!







All I've done recently is re-finish the brake calipers and worked wonders with a plethora of Meguiars products. Scrubs up OK!

All the best
Matt

You took the words right out of my mouth.

How can a car with 122 on the clock, look that good, if not showroom condition.

The camera doesn't pick up all the little chips all over the front end! LOL If I was being fussy, I'd get the front bumper, bonnet and wings painted, but I don't think it's worth it really. It's all original and should probably stay that way.

Thanks for the kind comments

Cheers
Matt

I had the front bumper of my 330 Sport done, it looks AMAZING now
The chips just being there used to annoy me
Well worth getting it done

What no diesel !

My old e46 325ci is still going strong on 150k, mate has it and still nothing has gone wrong...

Got a hankering for a 330cd MSport, quite rare though. Did you ever drive the 320d Matt ? What was it like as a comparison as there are more 320cd MSports about.

Happy new yr to u and the wife !

How long did all that take then Matt? Was it about 8 hours for the last one, when we saw you in the summer?

No point him getting the front resprayed - by the time the wax has dried on this one, he'll have chopped it in for another 330d, with a different excuse for buying yet another one

Hi Jase,

Happy New Year to you and the family too!

I've driven a couple of 320d's and they're fine. Just not as satisfying as the 330d to drive. The 320 seems to run out of revs too soon. They're still pretty quick and very economical though. Try both and see which one suits you best.

Pete,

Damn, you know me too well! LOL

Cheers
Matt
