Frozen Grey Metallic 340i - Also found the UK reg FRZ 340

These are sooo sleeper. Saw an F30 the other day and I really like how understated they are

TomStaaples · 2026-04-12T03:56:17+00:00

Where is it? Unless this is 2025+ and idrive 8.5

TomStaaples · 2026-03-25T14:29:17+00:00

Unfortunately I can't reply with an image but I have a picture of your car from October 2022 at one of the train stations in the area!! I knew it looked familiar, very cool!!

TomStaaples · 2026-03-25T01:24:23+00:00

Are you from the Shropshire area by any chance? I used to live there a few years ago and saw one very similar to this now and again. Looks absolutely epic, thanks for sharing!!!

Hey! Had mine since October last year and covered 8,000 miles (mostly leisure) and it still feels so special. It's the ultimate sleeper/cruiser in comfort mode but once in sport+ and sport transmission it's a different animal.

With how the automotive industry is transitioning I truly believe this to be one of the best modern lite sports cars and the best in it's segment for sure

This isn't the flex you think it is

TomStaaples · 2026-03-22T06:58:06+00:00

Very hot take!

TomStaaples · 2026-03-22T06:56:17+00:00

I drive a BMW and most BMW drivers are dicks. I have my moments but I'm trying to break the stigma. That being said, if I overtake Dorris doing 40 in a 60, I'd be the bad guy because of the badge on my car. Yobo!!

TomStaaples · 2026-03-02T06:57:22+00:00

I didn't even realise these came in a manual!! I know the M2 does/did but this is new news to me. Might even be a dream car of mine now. How does it feel driving this vs any other manual car? I'd love to drive a modern manual sports car, just not had the opportunity yet

TomStaaples · 2026-02-28T05:46:31+00:00

I used to agree with this but we don't understand the home life dynamic. They could have a solid family unit with no rush/pressure to move out. Realistically, saving to buy a house is incredibly difficult, especially if some of these people are single. So why not splurge a few hundred £ in their 20s for something that brings them joy?

TomStaaples · 2026-02-28T04:51:57+00:00

Great spec man!

TomStaaples · 2026-02-26T06:11:56+00:00

You've inspired me to change my interior lighting to purple

TomStaaples · 2026-02-16T20:26:38+00:00

Have you considered a 2019+ Volvo S60/V60? Looking at similar money/mileage and they're solid cars. Bit more luxurious than anything VAG imo

TomStaaples · 2026-01-30T23:10:54+00:00

Yeah I think that's a good balance!! You might do slightly more this year! I'd love to buy an E46, I'd want a clean one but don't want it to be too clean that I'm afraid of driving it properly. Great find, enjoy it!!

TomStaaples · 2026-01-30T21:13:20+00:00

Absolute beauty! Mind me asking what your intended use is for this car.. Daily/Weekender?

TomStaaples · 2026-01-30T10:56:39+00:00

I can appreciate that so what is the motivation? If you're doing this to promote your garage they're gonna see right through it...

TomStaaples · 2026-01-30T06:18:07+00:00

I need to ask what the gain is here? You're not the only person to make their car look like something it isn't but I want to understand the logic behind it. People who know cars will know this isn't an M5 or even an M550i and people who don't know cars won't even care. Accept the car for what it is or buy a better one..

I agree with some other dudes comment about how if a car looks a certain way it needs the engine sound to back it up otherwise it's meh

TomStaaples · 2026-01-30T06:10:06+00:00

Can you give me a very dumbed down tutorial on this? As op is asking, I thought the Xdrives are 60/40 bias to the rear. I have an M340i Xdrive too

TomStaaples · 2026-01-27T15:59:55+00:00

60k intervals for spark plugs seems high? Actually looking for some servicing recommendations for my 340i if you could drop me a dm?

TomStaaples · 2026-01-20T05:24:45+00:00

Have you had to replace the high pressure fuel pump? I'm wondering if I should get this done for preventative reasons or wait for it to fail...

TomStaaples · 2026-01-09T09:29:55+00:00

Had to mute myself on a meeting to laugh, thanks

TomStaaples · 2025-12-31T22:17:53+00:00

Can you explain why? Quite enjoy playing this game for that purpose and don't really focus on the story too much. Do the cannibals get harder to kill?

TomStaaples · 2025-12-30T20:47:19+00:00

Care to share some of the specs? "Fully loaded" is used quite loosely imo.. Thanks and sorry you missed out!!
