BMW 1 series /M_Style

Beautiful and clever)

My first BMW, as well as the first Personal auto.

It began with the search for a suitable instance. The object of desire was the Audi A4 B6, but destiny hurled us (BMW) together. BMW persecutes me all my life, excited my imagination, but it seemed unattainable for me.

The ads, I noticed long before the purchase. No lack of additional options and the price made me scroll through the ads quickly, and having admired and read I came down from my dreams and returned to search for something more affordable.

However, I could hardly keep from buying it. But after negotiations with the seller, it was decided to take!

BMW 1 series Gray Prop

Here it is – a gray propeller! I bought it suddenly because it was the crisis :-)

We preferred the BMW 1 Diesel, but when we saw gray, we decided to buy it.

1. To travel on a long distance is much more comfortable on the gray

2. Rear-wheel drive gives less right to mistake

3. You want to go fast in it

Apparently, I’m not felt fully the whole character of it, but I think that everything is still ahead, and I’ll describe new emotions after closer acquaintance with 120.

 

E87 Urchin

It is not a car, it is the most favorite girl, on which I’m ready to invest not only the soul and finance also; the benefit it’s not capricious, and it doesn’t require a lot, oil – Motul and fuel – 98… ;)

The drive delight is indescribable verily, but the same has a Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7

Now, I think, it’s time to talk about the history of acquaintance and purchase!

I met it on a dark parking of the show quite by accident.

I went for another one, but the next was “This”.

Passing by I could break my neck, and sitting in the “3”I asked the keys from the “BMW 1» and when the immense door opened, and window without frame was down I understood that it would be mine…

After a week away, I got the gift – winter tires with the original “cast products”, )

Some girl derived before me so that the interior and traversing were untouched…

BMW 1 series 115

I had a lot of different BMW, but all of them had only one defect – they were not new…

I took a young fool course at the beginning: I bought a car with wrong documents, then I bought another one (but it burst into flame while moving), then I bought a BMW 80s and put in it the money of BMW E46 M3. Then I decided to stop with the tuning and just buy a good, nice and (that it is more important (!) reliable car.

Now operational kilometers were 50,000, during that time I understood that:

1. The hatches are very comfortable.

2. Not big size helps in the city, where there is a jam of traffic or small parking places and etc

3. 115 hp. – It’s enough in the city in principle. Of course it depends on the driver. Mine is faster then race, where it’s important not only the motor, but also the driver experience.

4. Y E87 6- step regulation with the DS and the manual gearbox. It’s possible to go slow, faster, and faster + using manual gearbox. Very fast and responsive automobile and you have a rest in the jam of traffic.

BMW 1 series 2.0 Diesel

I had a Peugeot 206, 1,6l (109 hp), it was black with a mechanical gearbox and15”wheel! I was happy, that car was very pacey! I had a plan to change it but a bit later! I knew exactly what I want, it was supposed to be the BMW 1 Series, 3-door or 2-door, with 2,0 diesel ( 177 hp) It was good on taxes and dynamics) : And of course It should have mechanical gearbox! The color should be – “white”, because I think that It’s the most winning color for such car! And once I was in the Internet “just look” and came across this miracle! I fell in love immediately! The price was not bad and everything was as I wanted and even more. I didn’t care about the M-body kit! Operational kilometers were 37 t/km! For 2 days I divorced with French and married a German AND now I ride, I’m glad! Operational kilometers are 51 т.км! Dynamics is enough (from 325 (Е90)), fuel consumption is 8,2-8,4l/100km – in the city, and  5-5,5 l/100 km in the country! A little later I think to make the chip tuning and change radiator grille to black! )

BMW 1-series Penguin

I had two Mazda 3 before this automobile. The first one was broken it in slivers in three month and in 5 thousand kilometers. Result: the automobile in slivers my passenger and I only had one scratch apice, there were five people in the other car which was hit – three of them were in intensive care unit of a hospital. Fortunately everybody survived.

Received insurance money I bought absolutely the same Mazda 3. In a year, I understood that something was amiss this automobile didn’t favor me, however there were good girls in the Mazda club. I needed to find money in the bachelor budget to buy new auto.
The choice was difficult and stressful. There was a Chevrolet Tahoe, Lexus is250, Honda Legend and Toyota Avensis on approval. As a result, the choice fell on the Lexus, which was ordered. By the way, if Lexus were available at that moment, there wouldn’t be this webblog.

Three month waiting for Lexus is250 expired and my car (is250 luxury) arrived in Moscow in September 2007. I was called into the salon to register certain documents and order additional. Arriving into the salon, I was bored, because my manager was busy. By the way, that salon was on Rublevka. There is the auto show BMW near it, where I decided to walk.

I did not expect to see anything new; I sat in the X5, 7, 3; pushed buttons. And I already was going to leave, I noticed anything in the corner. A three-door hatchback. The first question was: “Is this BMW?” The second: “why is it so cool?” There was the test-drive of BMW 1 with the three-liter engine by hard adventure for the manager of Lexus.

In general I had any financial difficulties in the Lexus auto show and I must to declare of the black Sedan. As these goods was in low supply, there were no any problems with the refusal and deposit return.

In November 2007 I became the owner of the three-doors BMW 130 in black and with strange configuration. I took the car on a by-order basis, therefore the choice of options was fully at that time realized (I thought so). For example, there was a sunroof and music in it, however, there was no rain sensor and cruise control.

After a year of driving, I thought to change it. I started to get used to. And in a not very pleasant evening I had the idea to update it. Well, there was a body kit, sports exhaust, as real boys had.
You can see it on the photos. The process took 5 months.

BMW 1 series winged baby-beemer

I am happy! ! !

installed: Lambo-doors, Molding body kit.

It’s very squirrely and gray, I really like it!

Fuel consumption is sane – minimum 7,5 – I’m shocked! (I could only dream of it when I had old one)

I settled down to the auto immediately It’s very convenient, I was interested in only one thing  - How can growth under2 metersman sit there? Well, at least 1,90 – it was not clear for me, because even for me it seemed close at the beginning ( It was more spacious in Mazda :P )

I felt every mogul :) the day before the purchase I had a ride on brother’s car (Volvo c80), the difference is unreal, It was like a ship:) when I moved to the BMW 1 it seemed that the teeth would be fall down, now I HATE every little bump on the road!

Verified: more than200 km/hthe automobile goes only downhill.

A speed record was achieved210 km/h(the speed according to the GPS-navigator, speedometer showed 220)

If I need to sell it, I have already decided that somebody from my family will perform it. I cannot do it. I cannot even imagine that it go away me someday with someone forever. . .

BMW 1 series maimi

I derived in so serene a manner on the Mazda 3 and didn’t even think to change it, I liked it. Then I went to Egypt, absolutely not thinking about car changing. And one of the sunny days we were sunbathing, as always we were talking about cars..

. Discussed mutual acquaintance auto that he had decided to sell and then was a question “Would you like to change your auto to his?” At the beginning I was confused but then the brain started to work very quickly ( How much will I have from selling, how much should I add, and when will it happen), but the first of all it was necessary to receive the parents consent (It’s quite helpless without them)… and of course I was thinking about new car up to the end of the rest…I arrived back, told to my  parents…was very surprised to get the approval…Sold mine and bought BMW…

What can I say about this machine, It’s sweetie…In the beginning it was scary – rear-wheel drive, and I had no the experience to use of the rear-wheel drive…But as soon as I got behind the wheel, the road was changed into a nice trip…Even the jam of traffic are not spoil the mood, I don’t notice it…

BMW 1 series Bambi

Part I.

Our acquaintance has taken place in a hot summer day. It was the middle of August, on Sunday, we went by force of habit to the Segafredo to drink coffee…

At that time I was puzzled over the car selection. Basic reference standard could be a mechanical gearbox,Sedanwithout fail and diesel again. I took stock of two models: Toyota Camry, or BMW 3, but the stars were ordered otherwise…

We left the cafe and walked to the car by easy stages, it was when I saw the sign BMW in the distance. I offered to enter…

Having heard out my wishes, polite manager informed us happily that they were waiting for new BMW3 during two weeks, and the old one had already been sold out, and unfortunately, he could offer me only BMW1. I turned my nose, but went to watch…

In 15 min. later we returned from the parking and signed the documents.

Leaving the salon, in my head twisting only one thought: “Wow! Came to coffee!”

 

Part II.

A week passed. Euphoria was down. My brain started to work. I was thinking a lot how could I buy automatic, small, and even gasoline car, while I was waiting for the purchase… IN the same evening I picked up the car.

The adaptation period was long enough and hard… The memory of Veni selling rankled in my  heart, I was irritated by gear shifting robot, there was a feeling that all is not so…

Now, I am satisfied with everything, in general, except the fuel consumption…
