At last you got your car!

Looks great and the 230s finish it off a treat, haven't seen them on an E90 before.

Where did you get those from?

There were loads on ebay, but i bought them about 2 months ago from bm autosport, great tyres front and back, referbed, cost me £1200.

I have seen them for less but hey there like new.

I'm going to d badge on the back, change the bm badges for carbon all round, very light tint just in the back and maybe a black front grill.

I might lower the car to on the h&r, i know it will only drop it about 15ml because its a m sport, but the back sits a bit higher than the front. What do you think?

[jjbirch]

like will said the alloys make the car

[philg]

I have a few questions to, it does not have bluetooth but has phone options on the steering wheel is that if i get hands free? Also there is an aux in, in the centre console, is that for a i pod connection?

Congratulations on your new car, those alloys really set it off. I want black grills on mine, still undecided at the minute though need to see a black 1 with them on first.

[Darrens]

Looks great with those wheel. Health to drive.

Just picked up a 06 320D M Sport in red (pics to follow if it ever stops raining here in N Ireland).

Yes the aux in is for the ipod or other mp3 player, not as good as the usb connection and you don't have direct control over the ipod from the stereo.

Get some more pics up after do you your mods.

[Snooky]

Congrats!

Needs blacklines too in my opinion

Click on the thread in my signature for a Black (albeit Carbon Black) with a black grill. My advice is go for it. Worse case scenario is sell it here or ebay if you don't like it.

i don't have an i pod at the moment, I'm looking to go down this road as i hate having loads of CD in the car, Does the i pod just plug straight in. Or could i buy some sort of usb key adaptor that would go in the same way?

Congrats on the car. I'll look out for you when I'm visiting my office in Sunderland.

You can use a USB stick or certain portable hard drives. Search around on here as someone did post which hard drives work.

Only if you have a USB slot next to your Aux input in the armrest.

Very nice looking car - loving the wheels

Good point. If you have no USB any mp3 player including ipod can be played through the AUX in.

I just put various playlists together on an ipod and shuffled them. As you have prefered music there was no need to access the ipod during driving

[Oli]

Get the Dension 500, that has Ipod and USB input

[encee]

Has your car been lowered at all Phil, or is it just on standard suspension ?

Reason I ask, is that the 230`s look fantastic on it, and really set the car off.............so-much-so, that I now want some again, to set my E92 off.

Shouldn`t have looked at this thread..............

LOL, in all seriousness mate, your car looks brilliant, and already a credit to you !

[M3-FAST]

Car looks great, especially on 230's

Last pic from the rear, defo looks lowered!!

enjoy!

Agreed, tempted to swap the Alpinas for a set after seeing that.

You can get a kit off Blueparrot (£59) that works in conjuction with the CK3200 (£99) that will let you operate the phone via the steering wheel buttons, you won't get all functions but you will be able to start/stop a call and I believe use voice activation just check out the Parrott web-site for details.

Nice looking car BTW - the wheels really do look superb on the saloon.
