New F30 320d

[///M3FAN]

Hi All

Posting pics here as I could not do it on the New Members Intro page

Specs are 2013 F30 320d Msport
Alpine White, Dakota black leather
18inch 400m wheels, narrows and wides
Stock standard apart from a Bluetooth receiver installed. 54k kms on clock(yes thought this was a misprint when I saw the add for the car)
Just picked up an OEM space saver kit although car has Conti RFTs I am old school, prefer having a spare especially on the long road.

Future plans are to fit gloss black double slat kidney grilles, m4 style mirror covers, double exhaust outlets, still deciding on which style bootspoiler to fit.

Have a slight crease in the passenger side skirt, looks like a brick hit the side of the skirt, anyone have any tips on how to remove the crease? Heat Gun? or will it need filler and sanding

great find, specially with low mileage!

Congrats, thats a beaut of a car with that mileage especially! with regards to the crease, maybe try light heatgun first and see how it reacts...if it doesn't move much then go the other route.

Thanks all, really happy with this car, cant believe the difference in performance and tech compared to its predecessor. Had a 2014 Ford Focus 2.0 TDCI Sport, while that car felt much faster and nippier, this F30 is just much more refined, smoother ride, and tech wise, the Focus fuel cons avg was around 8.5, thus far F30 sitting on 7.4, this is mixed cycle driving with majority being sitting in traffic for an hour in the AM at the moment

FYI, anyone looking for a space saver for the F30, part number is BMW6796144, this fits the E60, E90, F30 etc, I actually got this from a guy who used it in a Mini Countryman

Long Overdue update. Mileage now on 82000kms, car has been trouble-free this past 2 years other than standard annual oil servicing. Got the brakes error pop up few weeks ago. Had the brakes done last week, went with Febi Front and Rear pads and Safeline sensors. Discs and fluid still hundreds. Brake feel same as OEM. Too early to check brake dust frequency but will monitor.
Also fitted 2 new Bridgestone Potenza S001 runflats in the rear, balanced and swapped fronts(L&R) and then Aligment. Car driving like a dream again.
Also took the time to replace the flower shaped lock nut set with the spline set, as during all this work done the Original lock nut got misplaced, excellent service from SMG Tygervalley in removing the old nuts and replacing with the new spline set.
Now that I replaced the rears I am going to sell on my Space Saver wheel and jack kit as my wife is set on Runflats, doesnt want hassle of changing to spare wheel in the event of a flat. Will then replace the front conti's with the Bridgestone in a few months.

Now time to add some Msport goodies and do a full on detail
