    **Unofficial Tyre Thread**

    I put mp4s on my previous 430d, replacing the bridgestone RFs & found them very good but just fancy trying something different & have heard good things of the continentals.

    **Unofficial Tyre Thread**

    Priced up a set of Continental SC7s for my M440i Surprised that with discounts they come in at a respectable £621 including valves, balance etc. Still have the Pirreli run flats on which the car came with, around 3.2mm left on them so will be looking to change them soon.

    Virgin Media Discussion Thread

    Well, cancellation put in, I'll see what is offered when/if they call. I can always cancel the cancellation if needed. Pity there is no real alternative where I live at the moment, although community fibre are planning on installing here sometime in the future.

    BMW and M Power Owners

    said goodbye to my 430D today, dropped it at the dealership this morning. Was quite sad to see it go as it's been an excellent motor. On the plus side picked up my new to me M440i at the same time. :)

    BMW and M Power Owners

    Indeed, I've talked myself out of a couple of cars already including an F series M4 which a friend has just traded in for an 850i. I was never a fan of the G series front but I have softened a little in the last year or so....must be getting old!!
