Thumbs up

It would be between White and Mineral Grey for me.

Except that I've just done what you're planning to do and gone for Estoril Blue - upgrading from a two year old 116D M Sport to the M135i

In all honesty, and I realise I will get mobbed for saying this.
Go and have a look at the new Audi S3.
My other half has just bought a new A1 Sport and while we were in the showroom there was a Metallic Red (with black roof) S3 there with some very nice extras (external stuff) on it.
It look fantastic and on my list of cars to look at in 12 months time.

Just good for thought really.

Let the mobbing begin........

You car retrofit an LSD from BMW or Quaife on the M135i.
The F20/F21 LCI (facelift) is coming soon. Before next summer, I think.

Really?

I thought the interior was excellent.
Not that there is anything wrong with the BMW interior.

It all comes down to personal taste though.

Your right there, but with the new S3 lovely car sounds nice it's a audi so won't be many problems like the BMW aha, but there's nothing about the dash which does it a lil screen which comes up n climate control an that's it just dull to me really
