Sorry, only just spotted this!

Anyway, the initial quotes pre-modification also seem ridiculous to me. I'm a similar age to you and also have a clean licence with full no-claims; by way of comparison I've just insured my G21 M340i for £345 fully comprehensive (£300 excess) with Saga. There were also other companies quoting a similar or even slightly lower premium on the comparison websites but most were with a higher excess.

Therefore, given your age and driving history £750 with a £550 excess for a 330d sounds very expensive to me; I know the West Midlands is probably a higher risk area than North Yorkshire but even so....

A couple of pics now that the new arrival has spent a few days getting detailed. Loving the Dravit, loving the car!

I am insured on an Aviva plus multi car policy at the moment and their quotes have been better than most others. Saga quoted about the same as Aviva but the XS was higher, along with other changeable policy extras.
Unfortunately, Birmingham along with London is a car crime hotspot so I guess this is the reason for penalising careful drivers

HMRC updated already so definitely going to start enjoying the tax savings as well!

Very nice. Definitely like the front splitter and rear diffuser.

Enjoy!

My wife took delivery of a 118i M Sport in mineral grey but it doesn’t look as good as that! I’ve bought some detailing kit and wax to give it a proper clean during the 2 week summer holiday (at home...).

My M340i Touring is going in for ceramic treatment tomorrow.

This looks great. I was considering getting the grill done and this has definitely made my mind up! Did you replace the whole grill? I was thinking about getting it wrapped for ease but I've seen it's not too difficult to change.

The local dealer will swap your chrome grill for the black one for around £120

Not that much more than a wrap, but infinitely better

Found genuine one for £120 but that's not fitted.

Wrap in gloss black is £40.

It's a straight forward job to fit mate. Plenty of "how to" videos on YouTube.

I've had chrome grills wrapped in the past and they don't wear well over time.

I guess it depends on how much the £80 difference means to you. But having been there before, I'd really recommend biting the bullet and getting the OE part.

shakey707 · 06-24-2020, 12:26 AM

After a few weeks since delivery, finally got it washed and ceramic coated.

danorman777 · 06-24-2020, 04:04 AM

Great looking car and nice views. So many are getting ceramic coated now. There will be some lovely looking cars on the second hand market in a few years!!
