SubLoaded's F10

What's this? Asking for parts before showcasing what it's for? People have been banned for less... 🦇

:fencelook::cthulhu::cartel:

Before u wanna mod the car, start by modding your signature and and car pic:cartel:

I guess it's about time that I did this :blab:

So to start this thread off properly, petrol price and consumption of a straight 6 NA getting sucked up in traffic for 1000km weekly fark me.

*Enter the tractor...*

F10 520D M Sport (N47T). Picked her up with 102k KMs on the clock and a good, documented, history. Massive shout-out to @Coisman who ran about 10 VINs for me until I found this, clean, car :smilebounce: Your efforts are always appreciated.

I wasn't happy with the remaining life on the discs and pads so the dealer had them replaced in time for my collection and completed an oil change service.

The day I collected her:

New car.. New phone.... What more excuses do I need to snap up a picture (yes, I'm that guy that will park the furthest away from any living thing)

Initial impressions
The car has a great power-to-weight ratio. You forget that you're in a 20d. The torque of the diesel makes the car feel effortless and it always seems to be in the right region of its power-band. Going from a 6spd to zf8 is a night and day difference and the electric steering makes the car feel a lot smaller than it is.

I've even managed to shock a few small cars off the line here and there :tiptoe:

Other than that, it's really comfy and has some nice creature comforts. Found myself driving and unaware a few times. Those seats just make me wanna sleep :fencelook:

My plans are to add a slimline boot spoiler and splitters/lip to the front bumper. The car is a fishbowl at the moment - begging for windows tints so I'll get that done as well.

Not really a fan of the wheels but they're comfy and will do for now.

Needless to say it'll go through the usual diesel goodies.. dp..remap.. and removing the 'unnecessary' bits :rollsmile:

But for now - 1st up on my list is a gearbox service.

I'll upload more pictures as I go along.

Thanks for the read :chef:

This truly is one of the best daily's one can go for now, considering size, comfort, fuel price and maintenance costs.
