From those pics I like it, but think the number plate suggests the driver may be a PRAT  :signLOL:

WANT.

I predict this is going to be a devastatingly quick car where it counts. Gah! decisions made impossible owing to the fact no dealer in the land is probably going to have one to test drive for God knows how long.

Ha ha!

I hate having money burning a hole in my pocket, I've had to ban myself from looking at the Pistonheads classifieds - I was spending hours on there dreaming last week! Need to do something quick though, she's spending it in her mind as fast as me.

A bit more info:




Oh boy! What was that RS thing again???


....A fast car with 5 doors and more useful, to some like me, load space. I've done the 2-door BMW coupe thing and enjoyed it immensely but it's not practical (for me).

Post by: andrewparker on December 09, 2010, 12:30:26 pm
For me neither represents a realistic ownership proposition, so practicalities are neither here nor there. That's the first M car in recent times that looks tomdo the badge some justice, and I like M cars!

love it too.
Go Mike  :happy2: cant be 'that' much a month on finance  :signLOL:

If it looks that good std, can you imagine it with a few subtle mods  :drool:

If this had a ford badge on it people would e crying chav and tacky. This makes the focus rs look tame, the front bumper is out of proportion with the rest of the car and the front fenders are too flared IMO making it look after Market.

I personally like this car and the frs but can't help but think how we have some badge snobs on here.
Title: Re: BMWs latest chav has arrived
Post by: andrewparker on December 09, 2010, 01:35:41 pm
Haha, the majority of people on here drive VWs. What do you expect?!
Title: Re: BMWs latest chav has arrived
Post by: tony_danza on December 09, 2010, 03:19:53 pm
Badge snobs??? I'm currently in-between cars, so running around in my French sh*tbox track car. I have no loyalty to any brand.

The kicker is though, no matter what it looks like, it's an M-car - so it will be proper. The 135i is a beautifully handling car and for those old enough to have driven E30s back in the day, it's as close as they've come since. More power, real LSD, adding lightness and M-tweaks.... there's no way this car can be a bad 'un.

Im with Poverty on this one.  That bumper is about as MAX POWER as they get.  Definitely more chav looking than the FRS. 

I would however still have one of these for the exact same reason as mr Danza has eluded to, awesome engine and chassis and build quality, with residuals to match.

I dont like it but thats the only conclusion i can draw having not driven it!

Looks mean as hell and no doubt it will go, and drive just as well! If I hadn't had got such a good deal on mine I think this is where I would have been heading. Awesome  :drool: :drool: :drool:

I'm not a BMW fan at all, but that does looks a hench little motor and the Evo initial review (last month) suggests it will have the power & character to compliment its appearance well.

Audi Rs3 then the Bmw imo.

I love 1 series BM's but only the hatches.  The coupes look daft IMO.  The little boot sticking out just looks completely out of place to me.

RS3 for me too.....already on my shortlist.....of one :wink: Roll on April :evilgrin: then onwards to stage 2 :driver:

BMW coupe drive's well and I'd expect the 1M to be a belter, just not for me

Now if we had a professor Frankenstein who could meld the 1M and the RS3 together! :jumping:

I like it.  Apart from the lower 'bent' door line!  Pity, the whole idea is just fantastic, execution IMO (looks) are just not right!
