Perfect timing. About to go view a 640d in an hour 😆😆

[@mrmotors_uk]

You’ll love it! ❤

[@shonubamrah]

Great post guys, I "Stage 1'd" my old 2012 640d at 40k and sold it at 95k and was still going strong, no issues, gonna do the same again to my new 2017 GC also at 40k!

[@mrmotors_uk]

Great cars aren’t they! The GC hasn’t aged badly at all ❤️

[@tommytinkler1708]

I have had the 640d for year and a half black a head turner, I would say pound for pound best value high end car you can buy. Red looks great.

[@mrmotors_uk]

Great value aren’t they! Oooh black, had a few black cars, great when they’re clean! 🧼

[@tommytinkler1708]

@@mrmotors_uk It gets a daily wipe down. I do find with a car like this it benefits switching the tyres between winter and summer ones.

[@mrmotors_uk]

Yeah the back end does love a good slide otherwise! You in the UK?

[@DarkShadowAy]

Hiya mate, how much did you pay for the remap? Has it had any impact to your mpg?

[@mrmotors_uk]

Speak to CL Autos buddy in regards to cost buddy. Definitely better on fuel now. Previously I’d be 36-40 mpg on a drive, now 40-44 minimum!

[@Roginator007]

Collect mine tomorrow in red too. What baby seat you got in the back mate? Trying to figure out what seat will give decent front space. Cheers

[@mrmotors_uk]

There’s bags of leg room regardless man! It’s a Doona so quite big! Another red owner 👋

[@Roginator007]

Cheers mate 👍

[@KalTank]

I use the cybex cloud i size, amazing because it rotates to put baby in and out, thank me later

[@mrmotors_uk]

How you getting on with it pal?

[@Roginator007]

@@mrmotors_uk loving it mate. Have lots of plans for her but very happy with it so far 😄

[@1richbish]

I want that colour. I just picked up a 640d GC and it's amazing... I have. Even trying to find out about the swirl flaps etc... Are they worth doing??

[@mrmotors_uk]

few and far between in red! lots of the dull colours but they all hide dirt better I suppose! definitely remove the swirl flaps, if they fail they get injested into the engine and can create issues! £££

[@kalicok1]

Incorrect these are the plastic flaps not the same as the older metal ones that destroy engines. The switch does stick intermittently after a while and puts into limp now and then, so I'd advise removing. Dpf is the best move to go with stage 1

[@mrmotors_uk]

@@kalicok1 gotcha! Wasn’t 100% sure but regardless they’re not there anymore 😂

[@stanospeed]

what modifications have you made to the exhaust ?

[@mrmotors_uk]

Fully standard 👀

[@Driver2397]

There go the bearings..n57 twin turbo bottom end feeders even when serviced at 7k intervals. Ask me how i know.

[@mrmotors_uk]

knock knock

[@KKhan89]

Doesn't this car do 0-60 in 5.4 secs stock?!?!

[@mrmotors_uk]

Ayee it was doing 5.7 on dragy, the inlet manifold was full of crud, and not ideal drag conditions so there or there abouts

[@lucybarney1]

Can you actually drive in the UK without a camera catching you ,,,,🤷‍♂️

[@mrmotors_uk]

So far so good! There are areas much worse than others though

[@derekporter66]

currently celtic tuning stage 1 640d. trying to stop myself going NVM stage 2. downpipe - intercooler - remap. quoted around £1700. should be 400 hp and 750nm+. hmmmmm

[@mrmotors_uk]

Haha gets expensive quick right? I think you’ll always be chasing the numbers though and put other bits under strain. At what point do you stop and buy an M6 😂

[@AlexandreG]

@@mrmotors_uk When you remember gas prices are on the rise and you gotta feed the little chaps at home😂
