My sons new car?!

Chris33 · 10-20-2006, 12:46 PM

My oldest son (he's only 4!) picked up his new car tonight.

He's been driving a 6 series 645 CI over the summer and part exchanged it today.

I've attached some pictures for you all to see

oneshare325 · 10-20-2006, 01:16 PM

Nice upgrade!! I wouldn't have known the difference when I was 4, but I guess he does!

ZuerstBMW · 10-20-2006, 01:19 PM

Just remember when he turns 16, hell be expecting the real thing.

red355 · 10-20-2006, 01:42 PM

Looks like he has scraped the wheel arch .... best remind him of that when he get his provisional licence in a few years

BeeEmDubU · 10-20-2006, 02:35 PM

needs a drop

jjbirch · 10-20-2006, 02:35 PM

hope you had a good trade in price did he opt for a sat nav or not

Thats Zymol polish!

Looks like he missed a bit when he was polishing it

It also has "Sat Nav" (well a sticker showing a screen).

As it was purchased from BMW it also comes with a 2 year warranty!! amazing.

Yep Zymol gets good results but its a reet pig to get that result...then it rains

booforty · 10-23-2006, 03:38 AM

I want one!!! I wonder if I can part exchange my 330i?

JonMad · 10-23-2006, 05:55 PM

mmmm, quad exhausts

problematic · 03-03-2007, 08:29 PM

Is it just me, or does he have black front and rear PDC's?

I've only got rear ones!

lol

Some people, who don't know any better, will say they are screw heads. :mad:

If you look closely, you'll see that Chris's son has the 'Kid-dividual' option, with 2 additional PDC sensors on the left & right side panels- you can never be too careful these days!

The car also has a fridge in the boot to store his carton of Um-Bongo

Indeed Paul- a Bosch cooling unit is standard on the 'Kid-dividual' option.

What is it with you guys and refrigerators? It's cold enough outside as it is.

Get yourself a Bosch fridge Floyd & you'll understand what all the fuss is about!

Ok, have noticed something quite disturbing with the photos, and I'm appalled that BMW could forget this but....

The car isn't fitted with vented discs!! Now, with such performance cars, I think vented discs are a must... unless

Does the 'kid-diviual' come with special refridgeration units mounted behind the disc brakes, which constantly blow ice cold air over the discs, thereby negating the need for vented discs??

I'm sure I read somewhere that the 'kid-ividual' pack came with an awesome airbag package, in fact, I managed to find a photo of it....

You're pretty much there- the 'Kid-dividual' option contains a separate freon pump running to each of the brake discs, with, of course, a larger supply to the front brake discs.

Heat dissipation has always been a problem for those needing to stop on a penny, from a mighty 5mph!

...and I thought I had too much time on my hands!
