2011 E90 320D

Hey guys so I had been searching for a 320D LCI for a while something with low mileage and been well looked after. After almost giving up I put a post on the forum hoping there would be some luck. I received a message. 2011 E90 320D, auto, low mileage and all the necessary maintenance. I thought surely this must be too good to be true. Car had a list of extras done to it which was everything I would have done to the car if it were in stock form. Only problem was it was in KZN. After MANY a struggle I finally decided to just risk it. I rented a car drove down to KZN and there she was. A big thank you to @"KPM_330"  View attachment 1View attachment 2

I drove her home the next day and put her straight over the pit for a once over. She needed  some work done hence the late post. I noticed a leak on the hot side of the cooler instead of replacing the cooler with a stock one I had a 335i cooler ready to bring down those intake temps. The Hot side fitted perfectly the cold side was 8mm smaller so some modifications were needed. View attachment 3View attachment 4View attachment 5 Big thank you to @"Danny@DSCmotorsport" for the great billet connector works a charm.

Next on the list was a swirl flap delete being a late 2011 model the swirl flaps are part of the inlet gasket pretty weird. Anyways blanked her off and car is on the road again running so sweet. Attached is diagram for blanking plug if anyone needs to have madeView attachment 8View attachment 9

Lastly was a quick stop to Retrofitters for interior LED lightsView attachment 1

Next up is angle eye LEDS and a HID or LED headlight kit:)

Congrats on the cabbie bud, car looks very clean, even the interior on the light colour roof shows how it has been cared for. 
Props to you @"KPM_330" and it sure looks like Reece will be doing the same as well!

We have been reading for a while how a Fanatic was taking such good care of this car.
Then recently was shocked to read he sold it.

Now even more happier it went to another Fanatic and diy/ mods keeps coming.

Well done
