What's your daily driver then?

Post by Jeroen »

Nice idea for a thread from Andy, share your daily ride!

I'll start off with mine: 2000 E46 M Tech 1 330i 4 door, manual gearbox
Whole bunch of options including alcantara sports seats, glass sunroof, xenon, nav, etc.
Covered 150.000 kms (abt 93K mls I believe)

On this moment (as I sell and buy a new daily regularly) I drive a 1994 BMW 525iA Touring. Nice full option car, aircon, automatic, cruise control, leather interior with sport seats, double deck sunroof (working), M-Tec sport suspension in the beautiful color Oxford Green with Alpina replica wheels in 17 inch. It has covered 363.000 km and still going strong (done 220 kph in Germay last year with 4 friend :mrgreen: ).

I'm running two at the moment.

Mainly my 2004 330d Touring, but I try and use my E24 at least twice a week as well.

Well I actually drive my E21 more than this, however I do take it on longer journeys and let me mum drive it in the meantime! Mines only a lowly 2.0 cylinder 4 pot unlike Jims.

My M30 swapped e30 is my daily drive. It uses around 14L/100 around the city though, so I might need something a bit more economical in the future. Fortunately I don't have to do too many km's per week.

With the appropiate amount of shame I present my daily:

Image

It's a company car and I had to order just before the BMW f30 arrived in the Netherlands... So I chose for the biggest, full options car at the lowest possible cost and this is what came out. It's a 1.6 e-HDi with a robot gearbox and start/stop system. Very comfortable and it's been doing 60k kms without any trouble at all.

Greetz,
Walter.

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car. Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far you take the wall with you.
