M235i vs 128ti

notleks64 · 08-09-2023, 02:26 PM

Hi all,

I’m on the verge of replacing my 72 plate 128ti with a 72 plate M235i
Are there any owners of the M235i that have any regrets about owning one?

Thanks.

None.

No regrets, coming from a Tuned Golf 7R and Scirocco. They only thing that slightly disappoints is the quite exhaust and the vaguely notchy 8 speed box, not as smooth as the VAG DSG.

Car tends to oversteer quite a bit. Tuneability is a bit iffy. Stock exhaust is a disappointment.
