Pics of your last car

Not sure if I really had any battery issues. I did replace both original batteries, I think in 2023 or 2024, which was quite expensive, but I got eight or nine years out of the original. Were battery issues common with this vehicle?

That's good to here. My wife's similar vintage F15 X5 [manufactured in May 2015] got 7 years out of the OEM AGM original battery and the Pre-Cat warm-up battery, before sudden failure of the main battery and we got only 3 years out of an after-market replacement AGM main battery -> which also failed suddenly, but did not leave is stranded. We just replaced that after-market main battery with a new OEM AGM battery from the BMW Dealer. I have yet to have the alternator checked, or do a parasitic drain test, BUT the BMW Dealer didn't mention anything. Glad your experience sounds better than mine...

A bit of a change to the G42 M240i. The odd thing is not feeling I need to keep tinkering with things, exhaust, alloys etc!

Still playing with the idea of the Ilumo deal kit though!

Got rid of these 2 to get my 2026 G42 M240i in December 2025.

I'm surprised that I just saw this thread.

After 15+ years and over 174,000 miles, last October, I finally sold my E92, M3 6MT. Here it with my favorite set of Apex 18x10" square setup wheels.

Oh, I replaced it with a 2022 M4 Competition X Convertible. The two cars are VERY different. I wouldn't call the E92 raw, but the G83 is both incredibly plushly numb and stunningly fast at the same time.

Traded my MY2018 Ford Kuga for my X3 xD20d, very nice car, sporty drive (almost all Fords are drivers' cars) but not quite so big and certainly not comfortable and luxurious as the X3 (which is also a drivers' car), so cant say I regret trading up...

Still have. FBO, upgraded turbo, Flex fuel. Lotsa fun.

Replaced the red one with the blue one (not the truck) and replacing that with a Marina Blue M5 this week.
