After plumes of black smoke on over run, serious difficulty starting when cold, and finally both keys self destructing, it was time for the stupid car to go.  So yesterday, we chopped it in getting a grand total of £350 in px (I couldn't be arsed to clean it for a private sale as it was gopping!), and took delivery of this.   :smiley:





















118d M Sport.  Nice car, if a little lacking in options tbh.  The missus needs a reliable car for work, so we've payed for that.  Just looking forward to the occasional clean, service, and drive without having to tear it apart fixing things for a while! 2 year warranty with an 11k parts and labour limit means I'm not touching the bloody thing this time!

Never say never, but it says Diesel on the filler cap so fingers crossed, it won't happen again!  :lipsrsealed:

I read somewhere that opening the doors on new/keyless BMW's primes the fueling system :lipsrsealed:
