Just picked up the new car I've been waiting on for a while now..had to
take a day off to get it, but was well worth the wait.

I managed to source (after a good bit of searching) an immaculate (really)
E46 325i Sport facelift model in Topaz blue.

The dealer I dealt with was extremely professional and specialises in M Power
machinery, some of the stock they had was drool worthy, forgot to bring my
camera along though.

They completely detailed the car, fully waxed, valeted the interior
and detailed the engine bay. Was very impressed with them.

The spec includes:
-Genuine Sport model
-Unmarked black leather interior
-Heated seats
-Rear PDC
-Xenons
-CD player (no changer, but will be fitting a Dice Silverline)
-Carbon cube interior trim
-Unmarked MV1 alloys
-Bridgestone Potenza Runflats all round

Took a couple of quick pics this morning, excuse the quality.

Also, fitted a Simota Gruppe M replica as per my other thread.

I'll be taking better pics when I get a chance...
Thanks for looking, any comments welcome too!

Haha, actually like the all chrome grills would you believe, I was thinking I was gonna
change them immediately, but now I think I'm staying chrome!

well done donal
looks superb
is it an irish car?

Nope, picked it up across the water...looked at what was available
here before I looked over there, nothing here compared tbh.

Great engine, must sound good with that intake?

Yep, sounds great (loud) at higher revs..kind of like a roar.

Excellent Donal, lovely car - a worthy replacement.. how you finding
all that extra power?

Nice to have the extra power alright, a far more relaxed drive than the 318is.
The delivery is very different than the 4 cylinder too.

lol, I should probably give them away...one of the ballasts
was faulty..found out after I installed them (easy install btw)..

More than likely going to get the 60 LED ones from someone
like Umnitza instead...no ballasts to fail.

 

[Dmitri]

Congrats! Keep her between the ditches. Time to change the avatar and signature methinks

 

[smokeymurphy]

was just about the to say the same as above,
congrats dude,

cant wait to hear what the intake sounds like

 

[Topaz]

Lovely looking car and well done. Loved that colour also
