2010 BMW 135i M-Sport Coupe Start-Up and Full Vehicle Tour
I was at the BMW showroom a few days ago to check out the cars for the BMW Innovation Day, an upcoming event organised by BMW Malaysia. Since this weekend was the stop for Penang, the beautiful cars arrived at the dealer for the event. One of the cars is this baby Beemer, the 135i Coupe. It's a nice little car I would say, pretty powerful for its size. This car cost RM423,800 in Malaysia.
BMW 135i Fuel Pump Dying (HPFP)
Search "135i hpfp" in Google. Yeah. Crazy isn't it? These things go out all the time. Before you buy a 1 series or a 3 series, you'll want to read up on this long standing issue that BMW has yet to really address. Year after year they replace these things, but they still haven't designed a better HPFP. From informal polls on http://1addicts.com/forums it looks like this effects somewhere between 20-25% of people on the forums. Yikes. Can't wait till my warranty runs out :-(
BMW 1 Series M Coupe review - Auto Express
Full review: http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/carreviews/firstdrives/266848/bmw_1series_m_coup.html#ixzz1Mt2wVTdl
Auto Express gets behind the wheel of BMW's latest M Power car, the 1 Series M Coupe. Powered by a 335bhp 3.0-litre turbocharged six-cylinder engine - a tweaked version of the unit from the 135i, it is capable of 0-62mph in 4.9 seconds, while top speed is electronically limited to 155mph.
Could this be the best M car since the original E30 M3? The new 1-Series M Coupé is about as back-to-basics as BMW's performance models get these days -- it's a simple formula of a powerful engine, a manual gearbox and rear-wheel drive.
Factor in compact dimensions and you should have a spiritual successor to one of the most-loved M cars in history. But is it any good on UK roads? Auto Express took the wheel to find out.
