Post by: GTIjames on July 31, 2010, 08:57:55 pm: Very nice mate :drool:

Mine is going on Friday and I was close to getting a 1'series coupe but went a different route in the end

How do you find the handling compared to the golf and What mods you done :happy2:
Title: Re: Few pics of my new car.
Post by: Aparoon on August 01, 2010, 12:18:09 pm: Handling feels really well, it's been pissing down since I've had it so not gone mad it's a bit twitchy in the wet...

I've fitted the performance carbon rear spoiler, performance black kidney grills, performance stripes and performance pedals, looks soo much better now!

Thinking about having the wheels done gloss black and a map then it then it should be spot on :happy2:

Title: Re: Few pics of my new car.
Post by: Deako on August 02, 2010, 12:16:21 pm: Looks lovely. Id love a 135i so much. 123d looks nice though!! :)
Title: Re: Few pics of my new car.
Post by: Aparoon on August 02, 2010, 02:58:11 pm: I drove a 135i the week before getting this as I was unsure what to get ,and the 135i I looked at was cheaper! But I really wasn't that impressed, i'm sure mapped it would be a different story... But to be honest I don't miss the speed at all, I love driving this and i'm glad I went for it over the 135i :smiley:

Post by: tony_danza on August 02, 2010, 03:01:24 pm: Superb!

Love these cars and all their RWDy goodness!!
Title: Re: Few pics of my new car.
Post by: PDT on August 03, 2010, 10:20:39 pm: I spent 6 hours mapping one of these when they were first released for sale, the achieveble results are fantastic! just be carefull who you choose to map it, a lot of stuff out there is poorly developed and doesnt come close to a pro remap.

If you want some contacts for a good map then give me a shout :happy2:
