A nice drive in the snow.

[Craig]

Thought as it has been snowing we would take a trip up into the hills around belmont (bolton) and surrounding areas. a few roads were closed. Due to the snow being so think. Was a nice drive anyway.

Bar those f**king awful sidelights I still wish I'd bought this years ago, such a soft spot for it

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Good grief man, show it some suds haha !

Been lowered or does it sit like that now !?

 

[davo172]

Can' believe you made it an a bmw everyone I have seen the last few days is stuck in snow !

 

[Craig]

Lol I have got some white ones to pop In just haven't done it yet. It will get a nice bath when the weather gets better haha. No mate thats how low it sits now. Yep made it with no problems. Touch wood it's been great. Though the tyres are due to be replaced shortly.

 

[Craig]

Ouch at 23mpg, getting more than double that now in the Mondeo ST TDCI and doing near 15k miles a year I think I'd need to look at the 330d diesel.

 

[Craig]

Haha I know you can feel it a little on the pennies. I roughly do that a year but didn't want a diesel lol.

 

[Djw John]

Could be worse, just filled up the family Mazda 6, 2.5 petrol and 25 mpg. 163bhp does not make it worth it.

Wow my 300hp/300ft/lb 6MPS got a real world 25mpg.

 

[Djw John]

Yeah, this does short journeys when the wife drives it and fast journeys when I drive it. On a run up north got it up to 33mpg.

I don't see us keeping it for long, been 9 months and that's been 9 months longer than I've Wanted it!

 

[Craig]

Lol that's crazy. Like you say it' worth it if your pushing some good bhp.
