Sucks, i hate that and had it happen to me as well when I was looking for a car for my kids.

Good luck with your search, I always say when you missed something god is looking after you as he is protecting you from making a mistake
or protecting you from a possible lemon.
Well I think god wants me to have this one. Visited the dealership, the old buyer has suddenly disappeared, he didn’t approved for credit. As @SlowE93 said money talks. 😂 gave a $500 deposit.

Also I have to say, what a machine. It’s genuinely comfortable on terrible roads. And In sport it stiffens up but still has good dampening. Loads up into turns nice. Trans shifts better then any 6hp with XHP. The Harmon kardon sounds epic. Throughly enjoyed it

The m140i is the last of the lightweight 1 series 6cyl cars all the rest are just big heavy pigs.
M340 held its own through the mountains tbh. Handles well.

Give us some facts :D

Specs
year
mileage

make us jealous :D

I also wanted an M340 badly but only could afford this Dwarf with a B58

A sorry I thought you got a m140, good cars but heavy.

Mates got the xdrive version, bloody fast but handles like a boat, you can really feel the weight.

I have the M adaptive suspension. And I can’t feel the weight at all tbh. Cars flat through corners. And with the factory lsd, it’s puts down power good. Plus it’s only 100 pounds up from the 335

I'm not talking about normal driving on the street, when I compare cars its at their limit.

Don't get me wrong the 340i is an awesome road car and for every day use I wouldn't mind one.

But I'm just use to driving small light weight nimble cars so i get very critical and I don't mean anything by it.

I owned a few e series 335i's and whilst they where great cars they are nothing compared to a properly set up 1 series.

Great car, enjoy and I'm not knocking it.

I'm giving my tesla to my old man as he has been hounding me for it and I'm looking to get something but there is nothing I like in any stable sub 100k, spending anymore than that on a factory car to me is like flushing money down the toilet.

I've got a few new cars I'm looking at but there is no test drives as they are all sold before you can even look or test drive one here in oz.
