Drove a work colleagues F30 msport this morning again . Just a lovely car to drive. Definitely on my list for my next car. .
Springs should set the car off and IMO needs nothing more done. (y) .

It's Cookstown ! Not another country. People don't drive anywhere anymore these days .
I used to love an early start and traveling somewhere to collect parts get something done or whatever
No I get that, I do, it's just I work 6 days a week, I don't have time to drive to Cookstown lol

I destroyed the happiness of some gayer in an identical BMW to yours today in my broken engined MR2 and it reminded me of how much I hate you/your car.:cool:

Don't ever take him seriously

I got this and then about a week later he walked over to me and shook my hand when I arrived at the RMS BBQ.

I didn't even get to run him over in the Range Rover, set the suspension high and to make it better

I'm pretty Pro abortion to be honest, if this forum has taught me anything it's that mistakes like @weeloaney dont need to happen again.

You spoke, I listened.

These are coming on Tuesday

Car looks well, don't fit those springs though.
I fitted Apex to my FN2 and it went from being a firm factory ride to a solid bone rattling ****ish thing. Although it handled really well and looked the part.
Really with springs you need to spend the money and get something decent. If you just want lows then any cheap ***** will do, it'll cost you your back/posture in the long run.

So Apex have delayed the delivery of the springs for some unknown reason, they haven't even dispatched them from the factory in Germany yet. The distributor in England, Venom Motorsport didn't even bother to keep me updated, I was the one making the calls and chasing them up, So I had enough, I cancelled my order and will be looking at other suitable options elsewhere.

What about some AC Schnitzer springs? They're quite reasonable, give the car a nice drop and are still comfortable?

Apex aren't great and AC Schnitzer are overpriced / hyped up just order Eibach Pro-line I have and have had them on all my cars they will lower your car nicely and actually improve the ride over standard M Sport springs and don't follow all the sheep on F30 Forum

Glad the springs are cancelled. Didn't want to bust your bubble when you said you'd ordered them. Now, listen to the wise older folks on here, order one make of spring and one only EIBACH and thats it - nothing else
