Congrats Bill! She's a fine car. Love that colour. You weren't too far behind Mark after all.

What you doing on this forum just now, you should be taking her out for a blast  :grin: :grin: Get out there man!

My damn beautiful wife asked some friends over for dinner yesterday and they are gonna be here any minute.  So no fun for me tonight :undecided:

Well... maybe a little later!  Must resist the alkyhol.

Ah the old dinner parties. Looking forward to hearing a thorough review pal  :smiley:

Unfortunately I can't drive it as friends just came over! NOOOO.  I'll add some thoughts later. :wink:

Pics never do the 1 series justice though, it looks amazing!  Colour is superb and interior is fantastic.

Thanks for the comments chaps, gotta go entertain now!

It's a beauty Bill, mine will be here Sat/Sun next week so only a week to go. I checked my cancelled GTI slot and it's still not been built  :grin: despite supposedly entering build 2 weeks ago.
Cancelled GTI, M135i beast mode.

Bear - wow!! That is stunning, and Estoril Blue is THE colour to get!! Can't wait to hear your thoughts once you give it a blast!

What a p1sser you've got people round - of all the nights  :grin:

Edit: Just showed the missus and she is drooling over your car - she now wants one when her car is up for renewal (which I quickly vetoed at least until I get an R  :grin:)

In my opinion that is a stunning car. I wouldn't own one only because of the running costs (that's why I'm getting rid of my S2000 after all), but there is no denying BMW have really done well to correct those ass ugly cars they've been pumping out the last few years.

I understand it's not to everyones tastes, but me likey. Can't wait to hear how it drives.

Congratulations! :)

Looking good Bill, and i've got to say i don't think i've ever seen a M135 on the road (or in a showroom). :whistle:

You just need a new signature now. :cool:

I can't believe he's not woofed his dinner down, poured all the drinks down the sink and told his missus they've run out so he has to go up the shops to restock (for an hour)  :laugh:

Looks Awesome Bear!!!  :cool: Especially in EB... Best colour by far in the range. I don't know what all the fuss is about with regards to looks. Looks Fab & equally aggressive compared to the GTi.

All the Best Buddy!!! ENJOY...
