It's a number plate, who cares, just forget about it and enjoy the car
Think the reason you can't fit the MPE, is that on the M3 / M4 it replaces the 2nd cats as well? If BMW even do decide to make a new model MPE, it will be backbox only to get round this, but it kind of defeats the purpose and makes it pretty pricey for not much result. @Jonny will know, since he has the MPE, Im just going by t'net, if I'm wrong about the cats?

Ooooo, well that makes it interesting then why the BMW wabs won't sell them to us MY19 boys...
Changing back pressure can have an impact on emissions and with the new WLTP certification they will potentially have to certify it with the optional exhaust which is a big job
Alongside that you now are very likely to have a GPF which is even more sensitive to back pressure changes
I was thinking it might be changes to how manufacturers are allowed to have optional exhausts... that bit about certification rings a bell - something about a manufacturer not being able to offer an exhaust that is louder that the OEM fitted one, and that there was something about 'loud exhaust' buttons etc.
Got a nice surprise from Paul at Bavarian... Because of the delays he wangled £350 out of BMW that can be spent on anything 'accessory'
Phone reception wasn't great so thought Paul originally said "£50" so lol'd, but suspected I'd just misheard.
But lose the heated wheel?
Not sure what to spend it on.....
Mirrors would look great with the other exterior carbon. Those wheels feel great to hold though and as demonstrated by @MarkM ’s picture, really lift the interior.
Part of me hopes they extend the offer on the M4 until after I get the house move completed!
So, all those bits then!
Was thinking of getting royal steering wheels to make me up a custom steering wheel (somehow tie alcantara, white stitching, white and black leather together, like the interior), which would mean picking up the carbon mirrors possibly then with the BMW discount.
Still browsing the catalogue.. .
Yeah when they put the interest rate up againPaul was saying they have got a decent number of M4s secured for stock over the next quarter. ..
Yeah when they put the interest rate up again
How are you finding it? Is it run in yet?
Thank **** for that
His looks a bit skinny though
I really don’t like the feel of the standard wheel, it was always being changed as I missed the alcantara AMG wheel £448 from Cotswold though, mirrors are £300, pedals are £160 (want!)
‘Real’ pics for you, mirrors are beautiful, can’t wait to Santa brings these
