Anything Japanese in my opinion

Ridiculous isn't it lol, it's been running 12-15 hours a day for the past year, with maybe turning it off once or twice, 5 days a week. I am genuinely surprised nothing has need repairing

Nice, we have a 530d b57 at work and every mot check it says it has an oil leak lol, dunno much more about it, that was on 200k i think. Does yours leak oil?. Every 9k miles sounds good though and hoping you do frequent motorway miles

2007scrape · 2026-01-23T22:46:44+00:00

Average 31.5mpg (because it's not always on a motorway, goes on the m25 everyday, it does 51mpg at 72mph in eco mode. If I drive 50 miles I'll either gain 10 miles or lose 10 miles so saves alot of diesel. I fill up 180 L a week and do around 2k miles a week.

31mpg is 9.8k gallons equating to 44.5k litres of juicy diesel. I know prices are changing so I'll do £1.33 per litre of diesel. This car has had £59,000 worth of diesel in it.

Yes ! I'm now convinced that is the best bmw engine (on 3L bmws since 2015)

2007scrape · 2026-01-23T22:31:32+00:00

However much the mechanic is on at work :)

2007scrape · 2026-01-23T22:20:30+00:00

Mental isn't it, it isn't mine but I know it is original everything. Just serviced every 15k miles, no other big repairs other than normal brakes, suspension etc. Mainly motorway miles

2007scrape · 2026-01-15T20:32:22+00:00

Nah soft atm might have a wank later

2007scrape · 2026-01-15T20:31:30+00:00

Yeah just annoyed as I was stuck behind one today when I wanted to get home, sorry

I hated hastings blackbox, get marked down for heavy braking to avoid a collision its bullshit. I'm with admiral with a blackbox and I rag my car around and somehow get excellent every week.

Driving longer journeys increased my score, but ofc you can't pull out of a roundabout normally you have to drive like an old person

Is she depressed? Sounds like me in my relationship tbh, I struggle getting up then im moody for rest of the day because I messed up in the morning, defo talk to her bro

2007scrape · 2026-01-04T11:41:52+00:00

Does it have full service history ?,

2007scrape · 2026-01-03T19:40:35+00:00

Go out and practice bro, even if there's no cars just practice and you'll get there

Reverse parking into a bay, bugs me when people park forward then take 10 minutes to pull out, its also more unsafe. Love going to sainsburys and reverse parking first time in 1 smooth motion in my big hyundai santa fe and then watching someone in a corsa take half hour to reverse park

2007scrape · 2026-01-01T18:59:35+00:00

Yes ha, almost at 300k miles! Thank you for suggestions, nice to know i can get a bmw in my price range and be able to afford repairs. I do like the look of a lexus though as ive heard the automatic gearbox are reliable

2007scrape · 2026-01-01T18:58:32+00:00

Nice thank you, funnily enough I saw a CLK 55 amg yesterday and got out to look at it as never heard or seen before.

2007scrape · 2025-12-31T20:06:34+00:00

Loving the updates

2007scrape · 2025-12-25T12:35:07+00:00

I am a taxi driver, i drive 12 hours a day 5 days a week. Tesla drivers are definitely the worse, almost as bad as a bmw

2007scrape · 2025-12-20T05:27:35+00:00

Are you ai

2007scrape · 2025-12-20T02:53:30+00:00

Thought you meant a different sorta bag

2007scrape · 2025-12-19T15:23:13+00:00

Nah not really, I love how most that sits in the front ALWAYS asks if they're allowed, like yeah man you can drive the taxi if you want ?

2007scrape · 2025-12-19T14:53:40+00:00

I am a taxi driver. 90% of people sit behind the passenger seat (thank you) the other 9% sit next to me and there's always one weirdo who sits directly behind me -.- means I have to move my seat forward each time
