I ended up getting a low mileage BMW approved M140i because I did not want the worry of "what if" something breaks. I absolutely love this car and it's been a sort of personal ambition of mine to own one. With it being RWD I am in no doubt I would not be skilled enough to do a balls to the wall race against a Golf R, S3 or A45 on a public road though. At least if any corners are involved! All these cars pick up speed with such ferociously I know it would only be a matter of time before my luck ran out. That said, I'm almost 40 years old so I just enjoy it for what it is.

I think they’re really good cars. The S3 was removed from sale due to WLTP reg issues when I was looking so that was removed straight away. The Golf R looked perfect on paper and was pretty practical but the GTI looks better and it left me totally cold. I actually like the BMW’s interior; the idrive is better than the equivalent in the competitors and the driving position was better than the Golf and leather was standard. The A class interior looks nice but it feels soooooo cheap and badly made when you actually started to touch stuff. I think the running costs are pretty reasonable; VED is £150, rear tyres are £300 each, three years servicing was £300 etc. Mine is stock power, but with a few cosmetic mods which pushes the insurance up a tad bit I’m fine with that.

I wanted something quick, practical, tune-able, not 'shouty', and unique. I went for an M140i too, a 2017 auto. It's fucking brilliant. The #1 reason for buying another car, was FUN. The M140i wins that by several car lengths over it's competitors. Remapped to 411/576nm now, and I'm looking at a sports cat, xHP gearbox map, and maybe an LSD too. I love it.

I have also a M140i with 6 speed manual (hard to find) I have chosen the manual gearbox instead of an automatic because i want to have more control over the car. The only real con of the manual is that the engine runs about 2100 RPM @ 100 KM/h. But the upside is i dont have to shift down due the torque the engine delivers, i can shift down but i dont have to. The engine rev matches automatically during downshifting. The only mod that is installed is MHD Stage 1 + top speed limiter removed. Very fun car to drive. English is not my primary language

There were some crazy cheap lease deals on the 140i Black Edition. Unfortunately I saw them after I got my Golf R. I love the R though as it has grown with me - when I first bought it, I had a GF and lived with my parents. 4 years later I'm married, with a mortgage and a 1yr old...the R's practicality meant I can fit a pram in the boot and car seat in the back, 4WD amazingly got my Mrs to the hospital in snow when she was in labour (crazy day!), and its not that costly to run overall even if you drive it hard - tyres, servicing etc is cheap. At the end of my lease now and I'm keeping it...too attached to get rid of it.

As far as I'm aware buddy I don't think the M140i is available with xDrive. Not sure about vehicles on the continent but here in the UK I don't think that's an option.

Maybe check out some of the forums and see if there are people who've made the switch from the RWD platform to xDrive. Unless you drive on the edge all of the time I can't see there being much difference to be honest. It's a neat little party trick being able to kick the tail out but drive from all 4 wheels is satisfying in a different kind of way. And if you can potentially knock xDrive into a RWD only setting it seems like the sensible thing to go for if the roads you're driving on are a bit tricky in harsh weather.

With M135i it was really good. And after 3 years I changed naturally to M140i. And what a car ! Even if it is written 20 bhp more there is a gap with M135. More torque. Now I pushed a bit more I put the suspension KW , pushed the engine to 400 bhp and 560nm of torque, put a bar on the front axle, and what a supercar... Very cool in everyday life and crazy on moutains road. And really good on race track (just change the brake liquid and hoses if you don't want to have fading brakes after 10 laps)...

Stumbled across this but great vid bud 👌 I'm in the same boat at the mo. Albeit looking to spend about 18k and need something fun but practical if I take the kids to school. Ive Had 3 N54s so I'm familiar with the turbo 6s and the m140i is on the shortlist or maybe m135i lci pending budget. For engine Sound, value for money and tuneability the m140i is second to none. Mhd map sees 430bhp stg1 or 470bhp stg2. I've used mhdflasher on all my n54s. I highly rate it for performance, ease of use and value. And xhp gearbox flash on my last 2 n54s. Massively improved the old zf gearbox. Only thing putting me off is trying something different after 3 n54s. The A45 is too pricey and poor vfm in my eyes and cheap plastics inside. S3 saloon is lovely but again they attract a high premium being an audi. The Golf R is a close contender, arguably its better looking than the bmw, cheaper to run as you say on insurance, tax, petrol etc but I don't find you get much for your money, an m140i or m135i lci can have pro nav, hk audi, heated leather and auto transmission where As most golf's Rs are poverty spec with only dsg. However the appeal of 4wd in the coming winter is swaying me, although tuning isn't as easy or cheap on the golf compared to mhdflasher on the Beemer. I think ultimately it'll depend which one comes up for sale first in the budget and spec I'm after. May grab a golf for 6 months and swap to the m lite next spring. And to throw one in the mix, I've also got an eye on the 435i gran coupes 🙈 Keep up the good work mate.

After weeks and weeks of scrolling though auto trader I’ve come to the same decision. Not sure yet whether to take the dive yet, I’ve currently got a Subaru WRX so to go from that to the BMW scares me a little with the rear drive. Funny though, it is literally these four cars for this price point
