My Rx7 was standard ,My scooby was standard so no chavving there, My renault 5 gt turbo was awsome running around 250bhp and weighing around 650kgs so nothing chavved im afraid so your totally wrong and a complete tool yourself for at least 1 paragraph.

Then you chuck some threats like you a gang member... and then you try and slag of my english even though Im more than likely more english than you!!

Maybe quicker than a 130i but as quick as a 335d? I don't think so.

And 210bhp is the most you'll get from a 120bhp remap. As with most mods, figures are always exaggerated. Even then that's only 140bhp/tonne - hardly earth shattering. Even a 335d Touring is well over 170bhp/tonne with a lot (an BIG chunk) more torque.

The 123d is a different kettle of fish - same as the 335d is to the 330d. In fact I might test one soon.

I may as well say my Beemer will outdrag a 911 turbo...

More than likely more English than me?!! BNP tendencies as well as a complete lack of any grasp of English. Bet they love you on your estate. The Renault could have been quicker than a Veyron - it still looks utterly ridiculous (long word - look it up).

1uke,

Matt's always like this Must be something to do with the internal turmoil of having had to go against his own stereotyping "rule" that says if you drive a 3 series BM you must be a complete tool ....

Ah yes - the reputation of 1 series drivers is SO much better.

Can't afford a proper BMW? Get a small engined 1 series and drive it like it's one of those grown up models then...

Oh and Luke the retard - you are the one who started making daft claims about the 120d. The OP was 120d vs 130i. You ruined it you halfwit.

No I said why bother with a 130i when a 120d has so many more advantages. I tryed keeping this on topic compared to you!

He doesn't need to be banned - Matt regularly throws his toys out the pram and leaves voluntarily

You can't even spell "tried" or "about."

Tragically you live many miles from me but if you insist on meeting to discuss further then do feel free to pop down.

I can imagine Newquay is just the place for you - only 20 minutes from me.

Bite - so will many Scoobies. And Evos. And all sorts of fully tuned motors. But I don't like modding - same as many others.

Oh and I'd choose the 120d with a remap buddy. Nothing beats a wave of torque and 40mpg!

I'll be down in Blackwater on Sunday. Really must pop in on the way down. Then again perhaps not.

Not far from me either -I'll look out for you.

Bite - your STI already starts with a lot of oomph. So mapping is clearly gives it more oomph. I'm no chavvy fact dreamer plucking figures out of the air. I know how quick Scoobies are. However I bet near 100ish the 4WD losses and torque deficit will redress the balance. Off the lights - STi every time.

Yes indeed by the river near Truro aren't you? If you spot a Golf GTI driving like a loon desperately trying to keep up it'll be me

Better than that of 3 series drivers

There's a shock. Matt lets his rather blinkered view of life get in the way of reality again

Oh and Luke the retard - you are the one who started making daft claims about the 120d. The OP was 120d vs 130i. You ruined it you halfwit.
You lose mate - resorting to insulting someone's grammar, spelling and now calling them a "retard".

You'll be threatening to "kick their heads in" soon

DD - you forgot to finish your penultimate sentence...

I only react if someone threatens me. I have no fear of aggro hence not giving a stuff if people know my address. First they have to find it, then...well I'm sure you can fill in the details yourself. You seem to be good at that.

Moose - yep. What colour GTI? Just in case. Now that is a very fine motor.

Marky - nowt to do with costs. A £4k modded Scooby is probably also a lot faster. But if you must relate every post to pointless money spotting then so be it.

I can see you actually - hiding behind that Heron's nest on the other side of the river.

Nice hat!

Just a common or garden Bluefin from Superchips. Didn't want to get too carried away seeing as it's a company car, still in warranty etc

I kid myself that if it blows up I can map it back to standard and no-one will ever know....
