    Wheel size... what's the deal?

    Yep I did mean 40d. If they all come with 21" then I don't have much of a choice, except maybe swapping them out for smaller wheels?

    The nervous wait to exchange....

    Posted a while back about our journey. Got to within about a week before exchanging only for the guy at the top of the chain to pull out and therefore it was back to square one for us. That was on September 16th. Had a viewing at a house on the 20th September, perfect in pretty much every way...

The neutron release generated by a...

    Wheel size... what's the deal?

    My Kodaiq was running on 19" wheels and it felt good. It was the 150bhp version. The X3 I am considering will be the 40d (250+ odd bhp) so is there some consideration on wheel size with an increase in power?

    BMW and M Power Owners

    to be fair I wouldn't be using it for playing music from my phone but mostly for running Waze and i'm not too fussed if the voice navigation isn't an outstanding audio experience :)

    BMW and M Power Owners

    not sure if this has been asked before but has anyone had any experience with retrofitting Android Auto in their BMW? I'm looking at getting an 18 plate X3 shortly and was wondering if these MMI type devices a) actually work b) are any good and c) as plus and play as they say they are?

    Wheel size... what's the deal?

    Hello. I've been looking at purchasing a used 18 plate BWM X3 30D but I am unsure if to go for one with 19", 20", or 21" wheels. Can someone explain the difference in performance, grip, and ride quality between these 3 sizes? I am aware that I would be paying more for larger tyres when going...

    Cheaper Ceramic Coatings That Work As Well As Expensive Ones?

    Can Coat is pretty easy to apply. It's about £30 a can but as @chroniclard said, you need to do the prep work before hand and that is where the cost can add up. Not a lot of point putting a coating if you've not ensured the paint is in good condition. Personally I'd clay, then polish, then clean...

    What is your car(s) and how much did you pay for it/them.

    2018 Skoda Kodiaq Scout brought 3 years ago for £37k and sold recently for £26,100 with just short of 29k on the clock. Lovely car if a little underpowered...

    A34 why so many accidents?!?

    I have no love for the A34. did the Reading to Oxford commute many times and couldn't stand the A34 part of the journey. It felt like a race track half the time, the other time, it felt like a car park!

    The nervous wait to exchange....

    Currently in the process of moving. We've sold our house to our cash buyer, put everything into storage, and are currently living with parents. We have a short chain, us, the people we're purchasing from, and the house they are moving into. When we put in an offer for the house we liked we were...
