I sold the E46 Coupe a while back and have now purchased a 3dr, Alpine White, Manual, M135i. I absolutely love this car!!! Its so quick, but also really refined. I have the adaptive suspension and when you press Sport.............awesomeness appears!!!
The standard power output is 320bhp but a few guys over here have had them on rolling roads and they seem to be closer to 340bhp.
I currently own an E92 335i and I was considering getting a M135i. I had a look at an estorial blue one at the dealers a few weeks back and they certainly look better in the metal. I didnt like them when I first saw the photos a few months back if I'm honest but now it really grown on me. The adaptive suspension would be the first box I'd tick too. I've decided to hang fire until they confirm prices of the CLA amg.
Cracking car. When I was replacing my 2.0 Scirocco that was top of my list but alas I feared I would lose my licence so opted for a 116i M Sport which I've had since 1 March and I'm lovin it!
I actually think this car is one of those, hell of a lot of car for the money, car's? Because it's an M car hot hatch for 10k LESS then an RS Audi! And not a lot more then a Golf!
Looks really nice mate, whats the space like in the back? The boot looks decent too.
The space is fine in the back mate, some people say it could be a little larger but I find it fine.
I know what you mean too, the Golf (specc'd) is pretty much the same price but the whole package is nowhere near as good. The fact that the mags dont pitch them in the same road tests etc speaks volumes -not sure VW would be too appreciative!!
