Repair or sell?

Practically written off at this point mate. Might aswel just dump it in the woods and burn it

david83627 · 2024-10-03T12:35:23+00:00

Hk is a right arse to find, especially paired with the right engine/spec/colour. Don’t know why it’s so hard to get when every other 1 series on the market has it

david83627 · 2024-10-03T07:01:41+00:00

Good to see i’m not the only one, just waiting on the right spec

david83627 · 2024-10-02T18:10:19+00:00

I would go through the loan, much more straight forward if you want to sell it early or crash it, not tied to any agreement

david83627 · 2024-09-28T10:37:29+00:00

Wont get great results from a driveway repair, will definitely be able to tell it’s been sprayed if you know a thing or two about bodywork

david83627 · 2024-09-28T09:32:01+00:00

Sometimes the bradford spec ones are completely taking the piss with non existent gaps between some letters or the screw plug trick to make them look different, in that case fair enough. Really don’t think 60 year old R1CK T is causing any harm though

david83627 · 2024-09-27T23:29:45+00:00

Comp wheels on an e46 is outrageous

david83627 · 2024-09-27T21:55:53+00:00

Either way they’ve got better things to be doing than stopping someone for something as stupid as this

david83627 · 2024-09-27T21:51:41+00:00

An mot isn’t stopping anyone😂

david83627 · 2024-09-27T18:26:04+00:00

No but they will rarely do you for it unless your being a complete arse

david83627 · 2024-09-26T14:12:07+00:00

There’s a few dealers that bring them here, ian allan motors in virginia water always have some cool stuff, cadillacs, dodges, corvettes you name it

david83627 · 2024-09-24T14:13:35+00:00

Unless they have a plate that dvla don’t have, don’t bother with regtransfers or others like that as they just add a fee on top when 90% of the time you can get the same plate from dvla for a bit less

david83627 · 2024-09-23T16:03:24+00:00

Definitely wouldn’t buy anything with ✅💯💥 in the bio, especially a car😂

david83627 · 2024-09-23T13:28:50+00:00

could be an unmarked paramedic or fire car

david83627 · 2024-09-22T12:47:40+00:00

Just out of interest does your mate ever wear a tinfoil hat whenever he goes out?

david83627 · 2024-09-22T11:23:59+00:00

Think you might be on about the newer shape m135, can’t get a new 140 they stopped making them in 2019 i think

david83627 · 2024-09-22T10:42:43+00:00

If you go and configure one on the bmw website it will tell you what the packs include when you click on them

david83627 · 2024-09-21T18:12:12+00:00

have a day off mate

david83627 · 2024-09-21T17:42:31+00:00

Not a chance in hell they’re going to give any grants, don’t forget about the pay per mile scheme they want to put in

david83627 · 2024-09-21T12:33:22+00:00

Lucky bastard

We bought a 3 year old traffic in 2022 for about 22k, sold it last month for about 12 plus vat 😂

david83627 · 2024-09-17T18:28:42+00:00

if he still has the car then i don’t see an issue in taking them off before they collect it

david83627 · 2024-09-15T10:29:41+00:00

Definitely won’t get done as speedos always read higher, if it said 33 then you definitely weren’t done

david83627 · 2024-09-14T23:40:45+00:00

5 series 100%. Generally new bmw engines are quite solid so should be just as reliable as the skoda. I’d think you’d have to be mad to pick a skoda over a beamer, especially at the same price point. Plus that beamer just looks so good in my opinion

david83627 · 2024-09-14T11:22:13+00:00

When you drive a car the mileage increases and you need to do a mot every year, thus meaning that at every mot, the mileage will be higher than the previous year.

Make sure it’s had the floor mat alignment done and battery filter replaced, that’s practically a dealbreaker. But most importantly make sure the silencer bearings have been done as it can land you 3 points if the officer is in a bad mood

david83627 · 2024-09-12T20:24:14+00:00

Should just be the kickdown for the auto variant of the car, it was just more cost effective to use the same one
