PENGAKUAN! JANGAN TERPEDAYA POSTING "BAIK BELI BMW DARI VIOS"


Baru-baru ini kita ada terlihat satu posting dari seorang pemilik akaun facebook yang ingin menjual kereta miliknya iaitu BMW E90 320i dengan harga RM65,000. Apa yang membuatkan netizen mula panas apabila beliau cuba comparekan kereta BMW miliknya dengan Toyota Vios dengan berkata "Lebih baik beli BMW E90 320i daripada beli Toyota Vios baru...". Bagi admin, beliau boleh menjual kereta beliau dengan cara yang lebih matang seperti tidak membandingkan antara kereta lama dan baru kerana dari segi harga sudah pasti yang baru lebih tinggi dan sistem serta selenggaraannya masih baru. Hasil daripada posting ini, admin terjumpa luahan daripada seorang pemilik BMW E90 ini bagi menyatakan apa sebenarnya ragam kereta buatan german ini.


Kamarul Ariffin Nor Sadan dari page Auto Stylista di Facebook ada memiliki sebuah kereta BMW 3-Series E90 buatan German ini, dan mari kita dengar sedikit sebanyak pengalaman yang ingin beliau kongsikan mengenai kereta BMW 3-Series E90 ini.

KAMARUL bersama BMW miliknya

Sebagai pemilik BMW E90, aku sarankan agar kau orang tak terperdaya dengan penjual seperti ini.
Aku beli E90 LCI tahun keluaran 2010 pada tahun 2012 di BMW Premium Selections— kira secondhand tapi melalui Auto Bavaria.

Masa ambil, odometer baru 8,000km. Ada warranti lagi setahun. Lima tahun aku guna kereta ni aku boleh kata kereta ini bagus.

Aku berpuashati dengannya, cuma pemilikan kereta ini tak seindah gambaran yang dihebahkan.

Beberapa perkara kau kena tahu:

1. Harga: 
RM80,000 hutang vs RM75,000 tunai. Bukan mudah kumpul wang tunai sebanyak RM75,000. Kalau kau ada wang tunai sebanyak itu, elok kau guna duit itu untuk beli kereta terpakai yang masih boleh buat pinjaman bank dan bayar harga muka tinggi, selebihnya kau laburkan.

2. Waranti: 
BMW terpakai tahun 2010 mestilah dah luput waranti. Kereta baru ada warranty sehingga 5 tahun. Jika kewangan baru nak stabil, jangan peningkan kepala pakai kereta tiada warranty. Kecuali kau beli kereta terpakai yang kos selenggara rendah. Semestinya bukan BMW E90.

3. Alat ganti: 
Sparepart reconditioned boleh dapat murah, tapi kena rajin cari sendiri. Kalau kereta dah rosak, nak kena cari lagi sparepart sendiri, memang niaya. Sparepart Taiwan pun murah, tapi apa guna beli kereta kualiti Jerman tapi semua pakai parts Taiwan yang tak authorised. Baik beli kereta tempatan tapi alat ganti asli. Bergaya jangan sampai poket papa kedana. itu kurang bijak.

4. Tayar: 
Sesetengah spec E90 tiada tayar spare. Ia pakai tayar run flat— bermaksud kalau pancit boleh jalan beberapa puluh kilometer lagi dengan kelajuan terhad. Harga sebuah tayar run flat untuk size untuk E90 ni mececah RM1,200 sebiji. Aku tukar kepada tayar biasa, sebab tak mampu. Kalau pancit, terpaksa panggil tow truck. Lagi satu, saiz tayar pun tak begitu mudah di cari.

5. Penjimatan bahan api: 
E90 320i mempunyai enjin 2.0L. Kecermatan minyaknya tak akan sama dengan enjin 1.5L. Mesti 2.0L lebih tinggi sedikit. Lagi-lagi kalau suka bawa macam pelesit, seperti yang dianjurkan dalam pos penjual. Jangan nanti dah beli E90, merungut setiap minggu sebab harga minyak naik. Dan bila pandu macam pelesit, komponen akan perlu ditukar dengan lebih kerap!

6. Lain-lain: 
- Ada ciri lampu tutup sendiri jika lupa matikan lampu selepas enjin dimatikan, namun namanya bukan LED Angel Eye Technology.
- Kesenyapan kabin (NVH) E90, terutamanya jika spesifikasi dengan rim 18" dan tayar run flat, tidaklah begitu hebat. Kalau versi M-sport, NVH lebih teruk kerana springnya keras. Dan Vios baharu sudah mempunyai lebih banyak alatan canggih seperti keyless entry, push start button dan lain-lain. Paling penting, Vios ini "reliable" dan menjimatkan minyak!

Kesimpulan:
Hati-hati dengan janji manis penjual. Dia cerita yang indah-indah sahaja. Tak usah percaya semua yang dia kata.
Maaf jika saya kata, jika budget kau mampu beli Vios baharu RM80,000 secara pinjaman bank, maka anda belum mampu beli BMW E90 terpakai pada harga RM75,000 secara tunai.

Oh ya! Cuba teka harga brake pad ori E90 berapa? Eh jangan kata boleh pakai brake tak ori pula.

TOYOTA AVANZA KEJAR LAMPU MERAH LANGGAR BMW M4



Sebuah kereta Toyota Avanza yang cuba mengejar lampu hijau yang sudah merah akhirnya merempuh sebuah kereta mewah BMW M4 yang kita tahu spesisnya amatlah rare dan jarang sekali kita lihat di jalan raya.


Melalui rakaman yang dibuat melalui kereta BMW M4 tersebut, jelas kelihatan lampu isyaratnya telah hijau dan ini bermakna lampu isyarat pada laluan Toyota Avanza tersebut telahpun bertukar merah. Kejadian berlaku di Melaka.


Masak juga nak bayar kos repair BMW M4 tersebut. Melalui carian dari Mudah dot my, harga model BMW M4 F82, 3.0 Coupe (A) tahun 2014 dijual pada harga RM568,000-RM615,000. Kalau claim insuran pun boleh kurus dompet jawabnya.... Next time kalau lampu isyarat tu dah berkelip jangan dikejar lagi. Kalau di Melaka tak silap admin, lampu isyaratnya bila nak tukar dari hijau ke merah, yang hijau akan berkelip dahulu dalam beberapa kali dan barulah bertukar merah.

Bila dah langgar, bukan diri je susah, orang lain pun susah.... Sekian, pesanan ringkas berhati-hati ketika memandu.

BMW KELUARKAN E-SCOOTER?


Siapa sangka BMW kini sedang dalam proses untuk mengeluarkan model motosikal berkonsepkan E-Skuter pula. Mungkin ia boleh menyaingi skuter yang ada di pasaran sekarang namun apa yang menjadi tanda tanya adalah harganya yang mungkin boleh melambung tinggi kerana jenamanya adalah BMW! Mengikut sumber, sudah ada prototaip untuk model ini.

BMW 1-SERIES FACELIFTED


The BMW 1-Series hatchback was facelifted together with the introduction of a 3-door body back in 2007, but the Coupe and the Convertible bodies are newer than the hatch bodies so it’s time for a mid-life facelift for the ‘booted’ 1-ers. For next year, the 1-Series Coupe and Convertible gets a few subtle updates.

The headlamps have been updated and the tail laps now get LED light strips. The front bumper has also received some modifications that result in an airflow path similar to the aerodynamic “air curtain” effect that BMW has shouted about as a key feature on the 1-Series M Coupe. According to BMW, it significantly reduces drag around the front wheels.

Air ducts that are about 100mm by 30mm in the front bumper channels air to openings at the front of each wheel arch, where it is discharged through a very narrow opening at high speed. This ‘curtain’ of air flowing across the side of the front wheels act as a curtain, reducing aerodynamically unfavorable turbulence around the rotating wheels.

According to BMW, the first example of an Air Curtain application was on the concept study BMW Vision EfficientDynamics in 2009, and now it comes to a production model. If that’s not enough, special Aero Wheels can be specified on the model to further reduce turbulence.

There’s also a newly developed rear differential which runs at a lower operating temperature than the one it replaces, thanks to double-helical ball bearings used in the internals.

NEW BMW 4S CENTRE IN KUALA LUMPUR

‘Tis the season to open new retail outlets, by the looks of it. Auto Bavaria Kuala Lumpur becomes the newest addition to the BMW Group Malaysia dealership network in Kuala Lumpur. The 4S centre is located at 362, Jalan Tun Razak, and if that address sounds familiar to Beemer customers, that’s because it’s where the Sapura Auto’s BMW dealership used to be.
Housed within the 60,000 sq ft, four-storey premises, which is of course compliant with BMW’s set of international standards and specifications for its dealerships, are a main BMW showroom, a Mini showroom, a dedicated Premium Selection area, sales office, service workshops with a 12 service bay capacity, four Fast Lane repair bays as well as a spare parts centre.
“The launch of Auto Bavaria’s newest outlet here in the heart of KL extends the BMW presence in the financial and commercial heart of Malaysia. The area is estimated to contribute more than four hundred cars annually to our business and we at BMW anticipate that the new dealership will prove to be a key contributor to our overall performance here in Malaysia,” said Geoffrey Briscoe, BMW Group Malaysia’s managing director.

BMW 1-Series M Coupe reveals more in Paris town centre

You’d think that with a motor show as big as Paris, there wouldn’t be anything worth a second look outside the venue it was held at. Well, apparently there was, and it was none other than the new BMW 1-Series M Coupe.

Shots of the car being partly revealed, taken in front of the Arc de Triomphe, were posted on the M-power.com website. Apart from being pictured in front of the most accident-prone roundabout in France, the shots revealed a camouflaged headlamp, side front portion of the bumper, air dam and a quad pipe exhaust.

The car is rumoured to produce 322 hp from a retuned version of the twin-turbo engine found in the 135i. It is also expected to have a limited run of 2,700 units, if some reports are to be believed. Until then, enjoy pictures of what some reporters probably missed in Paris. More images available after the jump.

BMW ALPINA B3 S Bi-TURBO 2010

Enthusiasts might appreciate the fact that the 2010 BMW Alpina B3 S Bi-Turbo is available as a coupé, convertible, touring or saloon vehicle. Also, rear-wheel and all-wheel drivetrain options are available for the car.

The BMW Alpina B3 S Bi-Turbo relies primarily on its 3-liter inline-6 twin turbocharged engine, which yields 400 horsepower at 6000 rpm and 397 lb-ft (540 Nm) of torque at 4500 rpm. The engine cleverly allocates 133.3 horsepower per liter of gasoline, and can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 4.7 seconds. The engine can go up to 7000 rpm, and the top speed clocks in at 186 mph (300 km/h). Massive power is distributed across the powerband using the Alpina Switch-Tronic; a set of buttons behind the steering wheel that essentially removes the need for a traditional gear handle. Using the Switch-Tronic, the driver can shift between gears with no perceivable loss in acceleration. This innovative feature also allows the driver to make use of the whole revolution range of the engine before shifting between gears, and utilizing the top gear is feasible for any driving circumstance. A heavy-duty cooling mechanism with added radiators preserves favorable temperatures when driving. The engine of the B3 S Bi-Turbo also maintains outstanding fuel economy.

Looking at the exterior, the car’s lively aesthetics are identified through the front spoiler, scooped hood, rear diffuser and a pair of unique double-ended mufflers. Alpina Classic 19 inch light-alloy rims emphasize the entire figure of the vehicle, complete with Michelin tires.

The interior is upholstered with leather sport seats, and a blue Alpina display beneath the dashboard. The display contains a digital speedometer and indicates important information such as engine and oil temperature.

BMW SLINGSHOT Z4 WITH 400HP

Engineers at MWDesign are an odd bunch, getting inspiration from random everyday thoughts. How random? As random as redesigning a BMW Z4 to look and feel like a set of Nike Slingshot golf clubs, that random. This has resulted in the MWDesign Project E89 Z4 3.5 which the company calls the “Slingshot.”

The power delivery in this golf club inspired car has been increased with the help of an ECU upgrade, creating 400 horses and 569Nm of torque. Adequate airflow in and out of engine was key and this was done with the addition of an intercooler, diverter valve, charge pipe, bigger intake filters and Eisenmann Black Series quad exhaust.

Handling that increase in performance will be the addition of adjustable swaybars, new springs, and better shocks which sits on 20-inch forged wheels with Toyo Proxes tires. This complements the aerodynamic changes in the body which feature carbon fibre splitters and quad rear diffuser.

The car also sports green accenting around the front air intakes in line with the design of the Nike Golf clubs. No information on the pricing but it will definitely be a unique addition to the tuning car hall of fame. Look after the jump for more pictures of the Nike Slingshot inspired Z4.

Alpina B5 Bi-Turbo

I’m still eagerly awaiting for BMW to release how the M-Sport package for the new F10 BMW 5-Series will look like but for those who prefer something a little more aftermarket than just a regular M-Sport package there’s always the Alpina kit, and this is what the Alpina F10 will look like.

This first sketch released by Alpina shows the Alpina B5 Bi-Turbo, which will likely be based on the 550i. It will be fully unveiled at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in the UK this year. You can expect Alpina to work similar magic with the 4.4 liter twin-turbo V8 engine as they did in the B7 Bi-Turbo based on the 750i.

In the B7 Bi-Turbo, Alpina managed to extract 500 horsepower and 700Nm, which is up from the engine’s stock 407hp and 600Nm figures, but still less than the M version of the engine found in the X5 M and X6 M which makes 555 horsepower but curiously less torque than the Alpina engine at 680Nm. That M engine can be massaged to make crazy figures as high as 715 horsepower and 845Nm of torque, as Nowack Motors managed to demonstrate earlier this year.
