one thing that does get on my nerves lately is the wrong attention the fn2 seems to get, it seems every other journey I get some prat tailgating trying to egg me on,

Isn't there a few mechanical differences to?
just waiting for the 125i 's to drop a few more K, however i expect that will slow now that everyone knows they can get 60bhp out of them from a remap

nope, nothing at all. P torque or evolve will remap you're 215bhp 125i to 270bhp. Plenty of them done now with proof had a go in one and it felt a little punchier than my standard 130i.
Mad-Dog wrote:the only difference is the gearbox and ratios, 125i needs 3rd to hit 60, they had a lower ration box in them. BMW do that quite a lot to make cars feel faster than the are, same on 123d which is why overall the 120d is the better of the diesels.yella wrote:Cool, think I might be looking for one of these instead of a 130i as I like the coupeMad-Dog wrote:yella wrote:only 1 series i'd ever touch would be 130i or the 125i ( same thing with a different boot) the only bullet proof model in the range and the diesels never ever get what they list if you are driving normally.I thought it was more than just a remap?
