Very good, honest, and genuine review.
The people who slag these off, are comparing them to M2/M4/RS3/A45s which is unreal as those cost twice or three times as much.
Had mine a year and a half, and it is by far the best daily do-it-all I have had.
All the mods you talk about are great, but think carefully, because turning it into a sharper handling, trackday toy, will ruin it as a daily.
Mine is stock, with a remap to 411bhp/576nm, and it is everything I need. Still very comfy for the 95% of the time I am trundling around with the wife in the passenger seat (mine has adaptive suspension), but enough power to shock M2's, RS3's, and A45s once I'm rolling (obviously I get destroyed from a standing start).
B58 is a motor out the box, can’t go wrong 👌🏾
The quality of your videos is top notch, definitely should be having more subscribers!
Great review, having owned one for a year l have to agree with you. I swopped my C63 coupe (6.2, needed 4 doors) for one and wasn’t disappointed at all and it’s definitely a car l would buy again - they are a great all rounder !
Very cool vid, well planned, executed and edited on m140i theme, thanks man and keep it up on this car!
Another well put together video and I love the delivery!
Had mine for 18 months now and still love it.
Great car that does a bit of everything.
Sorry I legit had to pause the video @ 2:09 as I almost spat out my drink - great banter! Hahaha, you deserve more subs my man!
Had mine for just under a year now. I got it to 470BHP 6 months ago. You will fall in love with it like it’s brand new once you go down that route your self. Well worth the money :D
Love the style of video and editing keep it up. Those OEM wheels need 2 go though, then the car will look complete. I'm sure you've got something in the works 👍🏾
Starts with a 7 and ends in 63m 😏
Cheers for the video bud👍🏻 looking to upgrade to an m135i or 40i very soon so this video has come in handy
Nice video mate, recently sold my 240i. Agree with most of your points! Was just a little dull for me! Recommend Litchfield stage 1
Really well produced video mate
Lsd has to be top of the list for mods.
all the best pal.. I'm over in Blackpool- a summer M140 cruise would be cool....
Arrived! Awesome little bit of kit, cheers mate
Awesome! No probs bud 👍
Great video mate. Pick mine up next week
Enjoyed this, buying one tomorrow. Cheers.
Nice video.Id recommend a B12 pro kit suspension upgrade, makes a great difference to the slightly vague and wayward handling. Cost/benefit analysis..No brainier, Weyeyeman 👍🏻
I’ve had mine for 18 months. It’s a great little car when you weigh up the performance vs. running costs vs. practicality. It’ll be a tough little car to replace when the time comes. Servicing for me is cheap as chips with the £300 service pack.
Worst bit is once you start fiddling, it’s a slippery slope! 😂. The underbody brace is cheap from Williams Performance and does make a difference.
Hi there had the xhp gearbox flash the best 300 quid spent should be standard from factory total transformaton a big up to mabz at nvm motor sport 👍
Awesome content as always. And great to see the moonwalking dude back at 1:11!
Put him back in just for you 😘
@@lookship haha appreciate it buddy 😉
Great review. You need more subscribers
nice car man, mine 120i i gor recently is the best car i already drive and one 140i is like a dream in my opinion hahaha
enjoying the videos keep them coming 👌
Gr8 video. V informative
Also had my manual M140i for 6 months. Agree about pro nav & HK audio, must haves in my opinion. I don’t have adaptive suspension, but a set of Bilstein B8 dampers sorted my ride & handling out. With regards to tax, manual is more money due to less MPG at higher motorway speeds.
£205 by any chance? Had another comment left on this video saying they were paying that...
@@lookship Mine is £265 a year as registered before 31st March 2017.
How coincidental, the vid of the smaller Satnav screen literally had my middle of nowhere village slapped in there
I’m looking to get the old 116i for my first car I love the look of em I don’t care about anything else lol
Quality video as always mate.I'd say go with MHD instead of bm3
Literally the exact same as you man😅 had the car 6 month and don’t fancy selling anytime soon
Quality mate. Good locations. Recognise 9/10 of them !
UTB 🔴
I’m thinking of buying one are they worth it 🤔
Have you thought about lowering springs. I installed both a strut brace and springs on my pre LCI 1 series and now the car feels planted as anything. I also have a K brace in the boot and it just helps the car round corners so much, no need for a full cage to be honest.
I have some fella, just haven't fitted them yet because I'm lazy 😅
Good to know though. I think a k-brace will be the next purchase. I'm guessing you don't need to remove/drop the back seats to fit them either which is another benefit I suppose.
I went stage 1.stage 2.then got the xhp tune. For me it's not worth the 300 pound. The gear changes are alot faster but that's all I've noticed.
congratulations to the winner
I have heater problems with mine 2012 plate
Nice....want one opted for the 118d msport with a stage 2 ...for now...........😶
Had mine for almost 2 years after trading in a gt86, to be honest I miss the driving experience of the 86.
Same bud. Hopefully have another 86 one day and go to town on it 🤙
Do you have a tire kit in case you have a flat tire?
Oi oi Been waiting for a new vid man! Love the content! Toying between one of these, the 440i or waiting a few extra months and splashing out on the s5! Keep up the good work!
I have a fully loaded 440i with MPPSK. Get one and you wont regret it. S4 aint RWD so not as much fun. Toys and MPPSK are a must. All the best.
Cheers dude leaning towards the 440i! Is the power still manageable in the 440i when driving steady away?
@@evilchimp95 Yea. So like in Eco Pro its behaves like a 420D and the gearbox is nice and smooth. I even managed 42mpg in it. Comfort is calm aswell. and you guessed it, sports or sports+ its like a wild animal.
The harmon option is great for the cost
Deadly road that Marske back road to guisbrough, mint moto mate 👍🏻
Many pheasants have been mown down there...👀
@@lookship that sharp right hand bend done a few cars over, can’t wait to see future plans for the bimmer, will you be attending car shows in the future after rona gone?
Yeah man. The usual ones. Sports Cars in the Park etc...
I really like them but, they just can't put their power down in the UK between October and April!
How do you compare the handling and feel against the GT86 you owned? Would you take the 140i or the new recently announced Subaru 2022? :)
Honestly? If I were to take either the M140i or the GT86 for a blast on a B Road, I'd take the GT86. It has to be the best chassis for the price in 20-30 years (not that I've drove every car to compare it with, but it is just that good).
I really want to get another 86 in the future and use it to get some seat time at a track. Nowhere near as expensive to run and I can fix pretty much anything on them now.
Nice Vid man! Viewing from Hartlepool!! oi oi

Xhp is one of my favourite mods...I would highly recommend it
I thought it was overrated on my old 6 speeder but maybe the 8 is better
Thought I recognised that road where the shit drone pilot was, right next to my workplace 🤣
What is the insurance like regarding age etc..
Awesome 👍 I do really like these, 500hp one day sounds like a nice number 😈
Enough for a daily innit 😝
Would love you see you go BM3 stage 2 and XHP stage 3! Please do it!! :)
I'll have a word with the Mrs and see if we REALLY need central heating in the new house 😆
@@lookship There is a compelling argument that documenting your modding journey on YT will gain you a whole new segment of modding enthusiast subscribers (of which there are many!) and would take your channel to a whole new level and therefore fund the central heating! Best of both worlds! That should sway her :)

Sold My 335D F30 And Bought One Today So Happy
I'm 19 and wanting one soon, insurance is going to be an issue though
Where’s the rear spoiler from?
What spoiler dp you got? Thanks in advance
Does this model have the oil starvation issue
I'm saving up and deciding on the M140i or an M2 but I'm a bit resitant to think what the M2 would cost to maintain... Do you or anyone know if there's a big difference in between the 2 or are the running costs pretty similar because it's just the fact that they're BMW's?
If it's an OG M2 I reckon the running costs would be closer to the M135i that the M140i. Near enough the same engine in the 2.
Yeah it would be an OG M2, 16/17 plate. Ok thanks mate! Just from this video I am a bit swayed by that mineral grey M140i. Such a nice car! Love the vids mate, keep them coming!
It is a superb car the 140 and I’ll miss it when the new 135i arrives on the 01/03. Get your vids on the Castleton to Hutton Le Hole road
Oh I will be over there when Boris doesn't have us locked up don't you worry!
Mr GB - Is there a new 135i on it’s way ?
@@stubbk3 I’ve had many a focus and it’s no focus
Got bootmod 3 stage 1 applied last night and it's transformed the car! Xhp stage 3 up next 👌
How is it without an LSD?
Fine mate i've got goodyear eagle f1 asy 5 tyres on 235 up front and 255 at the back and it grips and goes. Underbody brace is going on in a few weeks aswell which should stiffen it up further. I already have 25mm h&r springs couoled with the adaptive suspension and for the way I drive it's been spot on so far.
@@Matthew-jn7ss ahh nice. Mines sketchy stock with the standard Dunlop run flats.
Best thing you can do is get better tyres on it mate and take it from there 👍
You might want to check your MOT renewal date chap
Haha OK officer. I knew someone would pick up on that 🤣
Another case of being booked in somewhere and Covid cancelling the job 🙃
I have the adaptive suspension, but the car is on motech springs... Honestly I can't really tell that the suspension changes, am I doing something wrong?!
Not a big change, but I can't feel it stiffen up.
Ha. Stiffen up.
@@lookship what about the car?
@@lookship I’d say it’s definitely noticeable I’ve configured my sport mode to keep comfort suspension, otherwise ride can be a bit harsh some of the time
Great videos mate! My 140i gets delivered tomorrow
Oh by the way, Bootmod3 is insane... Do it.
Its such a shame that BMW have done away with the 3 litre engine in the 1 series
best of video was that man walking backwards
Picking mine up saturday !!!!!
You managed to pick one up for a decent price bro and congratulations on your new car 🙏🏻💎
@@AkaPredator1 cheers, decent price, 2018 shadow edition m140 mineral grey
Rs tuning mate, get a proper map. They wizards with the b58
Mainly due to lockdown and the fact everywhere I've tried to get booked into have had to cancel 😅
That the Tees Barrage @4:57?
Certainly is UTB 🔴
No point improving performance if you don’t have an LSD. You won’t be able to put the power down without one
Are you from Stockton?
Nope 🙅🏻
But I don't live far away
@@lookship lol is it a bad area? Some of the places in the video are Stockton from what I can remember
150 quid a year tax, I've just bought a 240i and its $475
Yeah,my tax is also just under 500 quid as it's a 67
@@phantom2k10 Same 67 plate.
Turns out my m140i is better than yours, it's got spearmint extra in the cupholder 😁
Hahaha.. man walking backwards
crazy thing is here in South Africa the M140i is actually more expensive than the F82 M3 and M4. how that is possible i do not know but its quite a score if you have the money
436M
Ahh shit what did I say...
2:49 that's not the mexican flag xddd
Just noticed that 🤣🤣
Damn it!
Can i have wheel spec pls?
£150 tax??
Yes...👀
Opf model? Mines pre and £205 👀👀😲😂
@@andrewboggis3174 nope, I'm pre all the 'opf ppf omg lol' filters too. Someone's having your eyes out mate 🤣
@@lookship am I getting stitched up 🤷🏻♂️😂😂 www.gov.uk/vehicle-tax-rate-tables/rates-for-cars-registered-on-or-after-1-march-2001
Is yours a manual? Slightly higher emissions than the autos I believe.
Best car I’ve ever owned! I’m in a VW R now and it’s nowhere near the mighty 140!! Great content as always!
Come back to the dark side 😜
not a Mexican flag mate you put Iranian flag
Get BM3, you will not regret it 👍
I would have bought yours if I didn't have the solicitors sniffing around asking for more £££ 😅
Stupid car. But also fantastic
