I had the bmw m performance exhuast fitted on mine on Monday as a little present from Santa. It provides the much needed sound track the 125i needed. Theres a real nice bassy drone sound on acceleration which is especially noticeable between 2-3k in sport mode. It's nothing in your face though which suits me just fine. Noticed a few burps and gargles also in the limited time I have driven on it. Can't wait for the summer now to open up that sunroof.

The car feels pretty much complete now which is the best compliment I can pay the exhaust. I didn't expect to so pleased with it.





Looks great  :cool:

Been too look at a suzuki swift 1.2 4x4 sz4 to maybe replace my leon as my winter/shopping car later in the year.
Shame they dont have a bigger engine option though
Saying that I adapt as I did when I was using my daihatsu as the winter/shopping car

We've now owned our 2013 Suzuki Swift Sport since April this year and I've got to say it's a cracking little car. It's a pity they didn't do it in 4x4 version, but it's now got its winter boots on so should be reasonably sure footed when the snows inevitably arrive in the next few weeks. The Swift 4x4 in SZ4 trim has very similar equipment level to the Sport and would be a sensible purchase
