Was cool to see ur F44 M235i, never hear or see much on these motors,

You're the bomb, baby! You're on your way. I have faith that you will get much more out of her. She just seems be held back for some reason.

Don't worry about the negative comments, it's just people (including me I'll confess) who are saying it's not a real bmw against bmw and not you. I'm pretty sure 99% of us would jump at the opportunity to have a nicely tuned sporty all wheel drive sedan in real life 😂😂

Nice car man....And u NAILED exactly what I was going to say....first half was pretty damm boring....second half was exhilarating!!! I thought it was jus me. you know what had to be a contributing factor.....the tires! See what cold pressure was that day and see what hot pressure was at end of lap. Also. There could potentially be something at play with the cooling system and the cars thermostats feedback mechanisms, as u likely have auxiliary radiators in the bottom left And right front bumpers. I have heard a few people mention certain things happen differently when car gets to certain temp in sport mode and or sport+ so on and so forth....last thing... HORRIFIC gauge cluster....idk how u do it?! It's a deal breaker for me though! The cluster...alone!!! LOL have a good one man

@@Namburiadityasairam2605the real bmw idea is wrong because I will say at 2.0l competition with other brands this chassis is amazing ( for fwd based car) , bmw put that kind of cars in the market they didn’t destroy any models with that 2series ( the 2series rwd exists etc ) , it is a different bmw that is cool and nice car to have it everyday

yeah... but i would sell this car asap...

@@bilboriches7216 because you drive a Corsa 1.0 2007?

@@akon3152 No. Cos this bmw is weak and cheap. I mean im not trashing it. Its just bad. Feels cheap, looks cheap and has no performance.

@@bilboriches7216 it's relatively, it's not a fully maxed M5 F10 i know, but looks a nice daily

@@akon3152 Who wants a mamonth old shitty f10? The hell? No thnx.

yup

Ya I would be surprised if it was over 320. It got left in the opening straight away by a BMW hatchback that was probably 350 tops. These kids and their numbers. I tell ya. Intake might be 15 horsepower. a tune might be 30-40 horsepower. downpipe maybe 20 horsepower. again, hes luck to have 320 real horsepower. looks pretty standard.

@@rediscoveryrecords1348 Well the standard 306bhp are often around 315/320 when put on a dyno. A mod here and there and you might gain 10 or so. And without the intercooler the inlet temperature on a B48 is high. That is why tuners like Mosselman and BMW/Mini Speed, that are offering a 350bhp package, only sell you that when you also take the intercooler.

I’m not an expert but I have a mk7.5 gti running 395 hp and this doesn’t accelerate nearly as quick. No hate, I like his car, I would just have to agree with others and guess low 300s

In fact I change my guess to high 200s

That's the magic of cars and fast driving ✨

Haha, I had to joke about that too... Funny message seeing where the car is.

@@volvo09:D First think I seen on the video ahah.

Or maybe he is just cooling off the brakes and engine before stopping

@@ricardogandur2318 i would absolutely do this at this point of the track

Bunch of sheep - probably never driven a BMW either.

It's not that , brother its about everyone's opinion ✌️ if is good or bad os theirs, thank you for beeing so kind and understanding 😊 🙏

@@firstprototype I agree. You are a wise man!

Which is the most important.

Where do u get 18i from tho? I get the 3....?

@@cheesecakemilkshake8043its a 4 cyl car

Yup, back in the days even state-of-the-art turbos only did half of that power. Better not talk about the 318i N46/N43, the best thing about those engines was that they had the same torque pretty much all over the rev range. 😉

it's the fwd platform tho. more like 118i coupe

its a m235i@@pfeen198

Me too... off the lights 😊

Yep me too. I have had 11Mercs in last15 yrs, but I enjoy the driving in the 235 more,and some of my Mercs were more powerful. It`s all about the pleasure it gives all round, not just track performance.

@@beastieboy3926 I’ve been legal to drive for 7 years, 4 cars, an A200, C300, E220 and now this. Easily my favourite car so far

it is pretty close to MINI, right? I also find it as a dropback

their ti models usually faster with the fwd setup how i dont know even with less power usually.

Cheaper to build.

I guess BMW have watched all those youtube reviews complaining about leg space in the back of the old 1/2 series 😂

g42 is bmw, f22 is bmw, f44 is not, it's a mini

So Long Spider 🥲👋🏼

It looked as though he was still hangen for a split second from his webbing. She's so light that she'll be fine.

o7

agreed, looks closer to stock power

Idk, 152mph on Kottenbom. a 300hp car likely wouldn't be eclipsing that number with traffic.

It’s 100-200 times we’re worse than stock type r lol

​@@JK-tu1xx it passed than sti at 5:00 pretty hard. Unless the Subie was absolutely just cruising, that was a sign that it's def over 300. I feel like people are so used to 500+ cars that everything looks stock and slow to them

Sounds like 250bhp tops.

That was after they had already slowed down at the end so it was likely higher, especially when they were going uphill, but still impressive.

Yes 👍🏻

But he’s wrong. 350-360 with DP removed is more realistic.

not much room on that turbo tho and it aint 400hp as he thinks. maybe 320-350 max

Could be

Big chance. A repair program has been established for the creaking sunroof issue in the 2GC. I also own a 2GC, which has undergone the repair process, and it's now functioning much better. It's not perfect yet, but the improvement is significant compared to before.

Maybe learn some english before commenting…

if you slam them too hard they do sound pretty bad. and it's because they're frameless, it usually happens on most cars. if you close them gently they sound very sturdy.

need to close them with care lol ive been in one they are very nice looking

for the younger generation especially in England early to mid 20s 6 cylinders+ is a killer on car insurance i wanted the 2019 M140i it costs me anywhere from £4000 to £6000... everyone knows they sound better and are faster but if you want a quick 300HP good looking car with good features then the M135i or M235i are probably the best option it used to be the Golf R MK 7.5... S3s are quite good too and A45s but they are again very expensive cars and the insurance kinda fucks you over on them

low :)

Actually, high - considering it’s getting replaced with the F74 in Q3/4 this year.

they are increasing as car insurance is becoming crazy on anything with 6 cylinders or more anyone whos in their early to mid 20s will be wanting S3s, Golf Rs and now the newer M135i and M235i

So what do you drive?

@@alexlam24 I currently own an e92 M3. Not that that makes any difference to my comment about the "Mini" gen 1 and 2 series.

You’re right, it got too hot and the 235 passed it before they even hit Dottinger Hohe. Guess they are building them better now 🙃

@@tomritchie8092 depends on where you from and your age as in England you arent getting a 6 cylinder or more M or M light car in your early to mid 20s without the car insurance being £4000 to £6000 minimum average person can not afford that type of money

The issue is these new 4cyl "Mini" 1/2 series are just neutered compared to what came before then. They're not bad cars per se, but I don't understand the desire to purchase one at a higher cost vs the alternatives (bmw or otherwise).

M140I was 490hp :)

It's never happened to me to this day on the autobahn🤣🤣 and you probably missed the part about the JB4 tune. 330Hp is the out of factory hp for this car.

B48 life

its fine its just that he did it too hard as its frame less windows enit

Second grade ?😂

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂​@@BrzBoyz831

@@BrzBoyz831 hs

talk to them bro im up here in the comments to explaing shit lmao mini had b48 also but this is b48E and in our m235i its forged an and revised im sure it can handle 600+ easy with cooling an mods transmission will handle it np because it has the zf trans im building mines rite now i have straight pipe but i still have downpipe and jb4 femto unlocking soon because i have a 21 then imma go catless ....when im done with it i wana try swap an rs3 motor in it 🤣🤣

Yeah not only is this underpowered, it's also heavy af.

Cap 🧢 see me on the autobahn 😂 In my actual humble opinion it's just below 400hp. Really don't know how to test it for cheap. It's 330 stock and I proved that as soon as I drove it off the lot. JB4 tune Map 2 on this lap + bms intake and 200 cell downpipe is probably pushing close to 400 but not over.

We'll see 😈

what do you drive?

I agree 💯 Imo BMW have single handedly removed any reason to pick a BMW over any of the VW group's offerings for a small fun car .

this BMW is nice, if you want to be a normal guy get an R but I would much rather have this..

@@vladniculita4176 what makes this unique?

​@@callumcurtis15nothing

@@vladniculita4176 It might drive good, but its FWD and it's really really not good looking. It just isn't a BMW in any way

For sure. It's only 50 hp added when I can have 100+. Just saving rn and gonna send the ECU off to Femto this year. I have a second car and renting it out for the time being so I can't afford to have it down for 2 weeks but I'll get it done. I appreciate you tho for the suggestion. It's all about money and time rn.
