Soon to be new owner

Hi everyone,

I've been on this forum for a few months now, and finally I have some good news. If all goes well this week I should be picking up my manual 130i by end of week.

Would have loved a 135i, but to be honest I simply can't afford that much money on a car, well not atm given the current economic climate. So I tossed up between a 125i and 130i, but the 130i simply got me due to value for money.

Looking forward to meeting you Sydney siders soon for a meet.

Cheers

I still kinda miss the 130i I had before the 135i. My biggest regret was never getting to wring it out on the track. Boy it had some herbs...........Enjoy!

The boot space in the 130i is pretty small - the 135i definitely has a deeper boot. That is with the rear seats up - I'm not sure when the seats are down though.

Boot Capacity: 125/135i = 370 L 130i = 330 - 1,150 L

definitely 130 with the seats down as it can be filled right to the top.
