Re: A Mini Adventure ... Never seen a velvet blue E92 :o Goes to google. Wasn't that the colour of your E46 M3? Loved that colour.

Absolutely love it. Looks boss as f**k. Gives a really alpha male impression of the owner.

Yup, and that they make the best (most complicated) diesel engines, which are often bought for the wrong reasons. IE miss daisy buying a 120d to go 3 miles each way to work, then complaining about DPF problems.. That said the dealers should take care of preventing that, but I presume they make...

Didn't know you were that old mate! Internets is a funny thing sometimes. Don't argee with the last bit though :nono: Then again what do I care, I'm a Honda boy now. (I keep forgetting) :cool:

Bad times Ben, you'll make some cash breaking it though! Always look on the bright side Is the gearbox in good nick? How much do you want for it? My mate has a K20 DC2 and needs a good box..

You all scared me away :dapprove:

Re: A Mini Adventure ... Not as bad as I thought! Lmao at you buying it to save money then modding it though, ah well at least you tried :rasp:

You've got to be kidding?! I hope you're counting your mrs' car as your own!

Welcome to CS. :rasp:

In fact that is a point Rob, if the brakes needed changing... surely they'd have a broken sensor and therefore a warning light on the dashboard?

at least its not a poverty spec 116i (or a mini!)

Bosch/Brembo is BMW OEM? Pagid is budget? (at least when I was in the scene..) Going in balls deep with the BMW god of CS because #yolo

If you're going to buy from ECP, ALWAYS check CarParts4Less before buying ​same company but always, always cheaper (in my experience)

Ah well, I could be a c**t and say judging by his username "Slammed172" that the OP is more internet hero than driving enthusiast... but I wont say that :)

Z4M is epic... but you already knew that.

cross keys!:clown:

£4k minimum from what I've read on PH! Odd that I was reading this thread ready to ask if it had been reliable lol.

It's a shame with the megane, it really does play into the "its french..." stereotype :(

Mate of mine paid that at a reputable garage for an E46 replacement turbo and fitting, with his knackered one in part ex. Of course if it went on mine I'd do it myself but was just stating figures :) Yeah you're right. What have you read about the R26? That said, the Megane is plagued with...

£1500 for a headgasket?!! f**k that, I'd do it myself with some tiger seal.

Really? What about DMF, Clutch, EGR Valve, DPF, Injectors, Swirl Flaps... ? Then of course the turbo, which will be a good £1200. Scary business with diesels these days! Kinda glad I sold my 320d when I did, although the next owner ran it to 140k without trouble after me. I just don't think...

Looking good! my mate did the xenon conversion on his and said it was the best mod he'd done.. That LSB interior though :| It's the only thing that puts me off buying a LSB M3!

Weird that, as modern cars, especially diesels scare me :clown:

O really? Did you have many problems with yours aside from the head gasket? I need an M car in my life, was originally going to go with a 330ci but thought why not go the whole hog?

DC5 would be fun! (DC2 would be more fun though ;) :P ) Ah I remember your E46, and was it Vein who had the Black one?

Not what I was expecting! Deffo needs the wheels sorting It was you who had the E46 330ci with the rust wasn't it? Or was that Vein.. TomSX.. You had a 330 didn't you?

Cheers pal, it sounds great when driving now with the air filter mod.. Nice to see the CS multiquote still sticks like a b**ch

Something to do on a weekend I guess! You have an E90 now?! *Searches users threads*

Me neither. Came from a 280ftlb 240bhp 1000kg turbo car too.

Sounds like you want a turbo motor.. The lack of torque thing always makes me smile.. ​When on da internetzzzzzz
