  1. welcome buddy to bmwoc :D i had a mk6 escort estate 1.8si many moons ago and it was actually quite a good car :unsure: and i managed to get a speeding ticket in that as well (i do not condone speeding on public roads.....its very bad) :D ;)
  2. not havin any probs here bud, im using google chrome. ;)
  3. that is just mental, i want a go :D don't think i'd get away with it over here tho :angry:
  4. i wanted an owners club dedicated to bmw's, so i entered bmw owners club into the google box and hey presto, here i am :D i hope you don't sense sarcasm in this, i don't mean to.......honest :P

  6. heh, i tried it once in my cupra. not sure if it was the type of tyres but man i was going nowhere :angry: mind you it was up to the headlights :blink:
  7. Ah leave it in the boot it looks good like that. Might go for that look myself.:)
  8. whens that mart? ok just found it "pinned" on the other bit :rolleyes:
  9. well how weird is this! I got into work today and picked up my oil, checked the oil on my lunch break and hey presto i now have NO lumpyness at all and probally the most strange is that the level was to the top, full, opposite of empty, completely ruddy full :huh: :blink: :o weird or wot!
  10. might just do that sam. it would be good to get a few people to do some meets every now and then around this area, weston is as good a place as any. :D B)
  11. ok, i'll try tomorrow to get a pic as i'm getting some oil from work and gonna top it up and keep an eye on it. £29 for a 4lt castrol 10 60w, bit cheaper than the £45 at halfords. :P
  12. WELCOME, i'm a bit of a newbie myself but welcome anyway. :D your not too far from where i bought my car, and also from my hometown of bristol B)
  13. hahaha, ok. thanks gav, i'll await a response. :rolleyes:
  14. i'll be up 4 it dep on loc' and day! and if i gotta car thats not falling apart :rolleyes:
  15. well they look dark, almost like tissue or something, weird?
  16. uuummm! there is a smell there but not a smell i'd associate with burning oil, but i don't really know much :unsure: i check the oil and did notice funny little lumps (about 3-4mm roundish) it runs like a dream really. i have got a rac gold warranty with it as well so hopefully what ever it is it'll be covered...i sooo hope :unsure:
  17. cheers guys, so i may of bought a banger, i hope the warranty will cover what ever it is :(
  18. ok, i'll top it up when i get back to work monday as i work for a motor factor, would there be any signs if the head gasket is gone (apart from a lack of oil). how many hours labour would i be looking at for a garage to do that? :unsure:
  19. :lol: :lol: :lol:

    MPG

    i've only used mine around town at the mo and i'm seeing about 15mpg :blink: might take it for a run on the motorway soon and see what it does then?? hopefully see a better figure there as its a 3.2 :huh:
  21. ok, i had a thread asking same question in the "3 series" section and no-one answered :( i just wanted to know if there is anything to look out for on the e46 m3 (common faults or known issues), any info would be much appreciated. :) 1 thing is that i've just got someone to check my oil and it's low, yet i only took delivery of it on the 12/09/11 and he apparently had a service done on it (garage man person thingy) and i cant seem to see any puddles? any ideas? :blink:
