Thought I'd create my own thread on here to showcase modifications and talk about my car! I've owned a few E90's, an F30 and also an F10 - I spent most of my time over on F30 Post.
(Apologies in advance as I know I'll waffle on)
Bit of background... My previous car was an F30 335d and it was great, bonus of it being x drive too! Only thing was I found it a bit on the small side in the cabin but the engine made up for it. I considered an F10 535d but after driving a few, it just didnt feel wow (strange as I loved my first F10). My wife suggested looking at the F06. I don't know why I didn't think of it... After looking at a few I'd made my mind up it was the car I wanted! I was all set to buy one but on close inspection, the driver side seat leather was all worn and that put me straight off.
I told myself to wait and the right car will come along. After a few weeks it did! Soon as I saw it on BMW AUC website, it was the one I was after. It had a few extras that I wasn't bothered about but coming from a very well specced F30, There was a few things that was a must. There seem to be very few 640d's with HUD and SLI.
I'm glad I've found the perfect car for me. It makes me smile everytime I get in it. My F10 gave me the same feeling, but this was something the F30 was missing - that wow factor. Feel great to be back in a RWD
