M135i - Estoril Blue Loveliness

[AdDaMan]

Well in contrast I've had the opposite experience
But it's all good either way.

 

[Jon.G]

Decent spec, hadn't noticed you could get heated seats without electric memory.

 

[BREMBO]

Very nice, seem to be getting a good reputation

Enjoy!

Whos house is that Dave?

Whos house is that Dave?

The one with the double garage is Sarah's parents place. Other is our flat.

 

[ForceIndia]

Great colour.

 

[Scutch]

Really wish I could get on with this, but the looks are horrid :dapprove:

Bloody BMW hatch.

Appreciate it for what it is though, and with that in mind it's one hell of a car. Just prefer the coupe. Saying that, I've got a Megane.

Great choice all the same, Dave

 

[Herr Flick]

It is a lovely house.

 

[Matt W]

Just awesome. Deliberately not going to test drive one as I'll end up wanting one. Going to wait until all the leased ones are up for sale after the 2 years

 

[davo172]

Great Car Dave best bmw colour ever colour to imo
Would of got it from another dealer thou couldn't drive round with DICK LOVE IT on my number plate LOL!

 

[midge]

Looks great that, What is 'efficient dynamics' ?

 

[Sir_Dave]

Looks great that, What is 'efficient dynamics' ?

All the fancy 'greener' technology. Explanation: http://www.bmw.co.uk/en_GB/topics/discover-bmw/efficientdynamics/technologies.html

Basically brake regeneration (charges the battery iirc), electric steering, start/stop, optimum gear shift indicator, etc etc to help save fuel.

My mates 116d has that. Shame it not one of these. His is so slow its dangerous where as yours is the exact opposite. Well, still dangerous..lol

 

[Matt W]

Grey is also lovely.

 

[Cliotoby]

Very nice! Love estoril.

 

[MarkCup]

I love the way they call it brake regeneration to make it sound like it's got some fancy F1 technology.

The reality is it's 'off the throttle regeneration' as the actual brakes contribute nothing!

Very clever all the same though, my Fiesta does the same and it works well.

 

[Ian_182]

Car looks great dave,thats the colour combo i would pick also.

 

[Waitey]

Running in. Ha gaaaaaay.

Done 800 miles in mine so far.

 

[Jason_E]

Ugly as f**k but at least you're happy! Lovely Colour is that, especially on M Kitted cars.

what mpg you getting?

 

[chriscummins7]

I think it looks great Dave.

And everything I've heard says they are properly awesome to drive... Such a steak with the deal you've got it on too!!! Enjoy mate

 

[TimR26]

Looks great Dave

I'd like to try one of these with a manual box as I don't like the auto.

 

[Waitey]

what mpg you getting?

40.3

 

[Ian_182]

Thats pretty good for a 335D to be fair.

Father in law got that out of his 535D on constant motorways.

The new 330d and 335d engines seem to be a bit more efficient than the older ones.

 

[C.J]

Really like this colour. If I swap my coupe to a saloon, I'd want Estoril too.

Do they have the rear plug in the boot also, to allow the 'golf tee' mod (without actually needing to get under the car)?

 

[Richyy182]

I'm very jealous - love it - enjoy it mate

 

[Lal B3N]

Fck running it in! Get it driven hard lol.

Looks lovely! Bet it's a lovely place to sit in. Drove a 320d the other day and although I nearly fell asleep because of its awful engine the interior really was awesome.

 

[Sam@NP]

looks great mate, I'd have gone for the ZF box personally.

Spun it on the motorway yet?

 

[Budgie]

Properly lovely car, this.

Bloody quick too!

 

[Nickson]

Awesomeness.

Love the car Dave!

 

[Gally]

Dave, what other car shares those wheels? Guy in my street had a 2 door BMW in Estoril Blue with those wheels but i'm positive it's not an M135i.

 

[Gally]

Looks like an msport coupe of some kind but the net throws up nothing.

 

[Gally]

Could have been an M235i! Hmmm! I'll need to have a better look! On a private plate so no idea if it was properly new.

 

[Nick172Cup]

You been drinking Gally? Lol

 

[Gally]

I should have taken a picture of it. After seeing the M235i it's possibly one of those. When did they release it?

Oh and abstained for lent.

 

[ColinG]

Spun it on the motorway yet?

FLOL!!! He's running it in the girls way IIRC so won't have breached the magic 120mph mark yet.

 

[jayxx83]

Stunning motor. Nearly went for one of these myself but wanted more space. For those still interested, there are deals direct from bmw on pcp for £389 down and £389 per month for 3 years. Base spec though but still very reasonable.

 

[Bubbles]

Do the LED running lights come as standard on the M135 or is that an option?

Identical car at our gym yesterday, sounded nice!

 

[Ali]

Only good thing about the M135i is the ZF box. The car itself left me utterly cold. Best colour though.
