Gone to the darkside, sorry!

After many years of drooling over and thinking about owning one, today i went and did it, got me a E46 BMW M3, only had it 2 hours and it amazed me already, simply awesome!

Welcome to the dark Side young Drew. Your choice of weapon is exemplary. I congratulate you....

I thought I saw a glint in your eye when we talked about the 335

Is it SMG?

Make sure you get your **** out on the next run too..... 15 Scoobs and one beemer the other day.. I had the pi55 extracted...often..

This reminds me, I need to bring mine down for a service.... The Brake Fluid needs replacing.. apparently..

Two questions come to mind....

1. Can you reset the service lights...
2. When's your first ECU flash due?? (you have a 335D at your disposal....

)

Just one tip for you, if the sat nav is anything like that in Al's car - ignore it, you could get there quicker blind folded!!

Nice car though

Sorry Al

Who rattled your cage anyway???

There's nowt wrong with the Sat Nav... we had 5 sat Nav's for the way back from Stelvio and each one gave a different route! Mine did seem to like invading town centres though.... right down the pedestrian high street!!
