Amazing content from a true petrolhead and roads that I know and love myself that’s me and Ash In the other M140i @2:08! Doing exactly the same thing! See you at BMW Chiswick on the 18th! Your current M140i is my perfect spec even down to the oyster leather and alcantara performance wheel.

Were you hinting at no longer having a Mlight¿? What's this channel gunna b like without it. M2comp is a defo step up tho, must b exciting getting one of those! Wish my year round climate was as mild as yours and could use an M2 as a daily but after last winter I'll just stick to xdrive M240 lol fak'n snow n ice for months. Cheers tho! Thanx fer nother great vid👍

Great video Joe. As a previous M235i and now M240i owner (via a Porsche Cayman) I think you've nailed the appeal of these M-lites perfectly. For the money, there's nothing like them. In fact, scrub the for the money bit. I think they are a great all round package, full stop. The new car has a lot to live up to.

Great video mate, agree with everything you said, you’re one of the main reasons I ended up in an M140. You actually drove past me the day you shot this, later in the day in the Guildford area, I was in a sunset orange M140 pulling out of a country park car park.

Joe, I really love these videos much much more than the fancy ones with the drones and the music... With these kind of videos , you became famous to the right people. It's with these kind of videos that people got the right info. People who are interested to buy or change there bmw. I bought the M2 and a M240 xdrive this year (after 15y of Quattro driving, if you remember) by watching your basic, no fancy (crashing 😉) drone shot video's over and over again. I even viewed Alpina for a wile becouse of your 3 famous vids 😂. I found the info I was looking for in your videos. And I think a lot of people do. You're the Chris Harris 'light' version 😂😂 And like you said, this take much less time to edit. So it's a win win for you and your viewers lol. Hope you make again much more of these 'right info you need' videos. Greets

Bought a M140I by shear luck 5 months ago. I was looking at hatchbacks from Ford, Subaru, Audi ect and possibly a 3 series. Whilst in the bmw dealership I asked about the M140 but I couldn’t fall in love with the looks. Took it for a test drive and bought the car , LCi2 with comfort pack, apple car play, adaptive suspension and 8 speed auto. I live in the city in Australia and I am so pleased with the car. Unfortunately after watching joe, along with other reviews it has become a bit of a love affair and now has springs, spoilers, and more power. Be warned. Xxxx

It's good to see someone else driving and enjoying the m140i like myself. Most people prefer to clean theirs, I prefer to enjoy mine now. Good to see you back to the m140i videos, I've been waiting for your review of your new one since you bought it. Good stuff mate.

My friend put the Cup2s on his F10 M5 CP and he cant stop raving about them. Says they have turned the car into a different beast and rectified the weight issues he was complaining about in the corners. Great to hear they did the same to the M140i as well.

Hi, Joe. Following your channel for some time and enjoying alot. i'm happy owner of m140. I have tried other great hatchbacks. got best connected to bmw because of less of controlling systems. the car keeps me in focus and lets me to drive (driving only in sport+ helps). i always know that pushing it hard without focusing on driving - this beast will throw me away. not the same for seat / golf - what ever you do, car will fix... i guess this will be different on track, but for once in a year this hardly relevant for me. so this constant connection, focus and control, which are must for this car, makes a total difference for me. thanks again for the pleasure of your channel! Eduard

Nice and informative review! I'm planning to purchase a M140i this year. What's your opinion on the X-drive version ? I don't really feel the need to play and drift around so much (expensive tyres ;) , just want it to handle safe and be able to to sub 5 seconds 0 - 60 launches. Does the X-drive handle much better out of corners and overall ? Or is it too dull maybe ?

Joe. You the expert. If you had a choice ( and the money ) 😂 , would you buy an m4 comp 2018 for about 60k nearly new or a m4 cs for between 65-70k? Not that I have that kinda cash but , just your thought. M4 comp look great but popular. The Cs looks greater but plainer inside and not so many around. And if the weather was hot always ( which it is here ) , would you go for the cs over the comp??? Many thanks bro. 👍🏽

Joe, love the comparison that you make between the 140 and it’s competitors. As an owner of an M135i with the same Motec mods as your previous white M135 I’m thinking of upgrading and after much deliberation about used Golf R’s or AMG 45’s I’m realising that the uniqueness of the package will probably pull me back into an M Lite. A grey 140 Shadow edition with Motec mods will almost certainly fit the bill. Thanks for your in depth reviews to make the decision process a little easier.

Hi Joe, great vid, been dropping in and out of them last couple of years. Really like what you done with yours, the Eibach springs and spacers really set the car off, subtle...how it should look really when built. I have 2014 M35i for last four years and might have to invest! Different thread but "Dad brag" bus coming, but after having a M3 comp for a bit he recently collected a black CS (luckily as they are very rare). Its night and day visually over the comp and standard and hopefully he enjoys it once run in. He is always stalking your vids for reviews and nabbed one from Fairfields Leigh on Sea! Were in Essex so if perchance you're ever over this way he would like nothing more to show it off to you! haha. Keep up the good work

I think the m140i and m2/ m2 comp use the same manual box. I’m not sure if the m135i one is the same. I can confirm the m140i box has a lot short throw than the m135i. The m performance gear knob makes it feel a lot better (I know it’s only a gear knob but it honestly does) just makes it feel more precise and a more satisfying shift that feels shorter and easier + smoother to place

Hey joe love the video, I have to say that you’ve been the main reason for me buying an Mlite! what will your recommendation be for winter tyres? Any good?

Hey Tony, thats great news thank you! Winter tyres are a difficult one, I usually run my Michelin PSS all year round, but living in London means I only have a few weeks of sketchy grip... The PS4's are better in the wet and perform a fraction better in sub 5 degree conditions. Alternatively you could buy some Michelin Cross Climate + tyres (about £115 Fronts and £165 rears) and run 225/40/18 fronts and 235/40 18 rears, I think this is what a few owners have done but double check on forums. Cheers

I recently got a Golf R my 7. Love it to bits. Briefly considered the M135 but it just didn’t have enough going on. Your M140 tho is 👌🏽 You may just miss the all round package if you get the M2 comp

Another great video Joe. I’ve just had a test drive in a M135i, and really liked it, but my back was aching a bit when I got out. Have you got any experience of people getting backache in these cars?

Well said there joe, some great points, I’ve recently just tried an M140i and loved it! Its got a certain naughtiness to it that it’s 4 wheel drive rivals can’t match. I will hopefully be putting an order in very soon. I do think the focus RS is the better drivers tool...... but not by much! And all the things the RS doesn’t do so well (as much as I love it) the M140i does

Don't apologise for these types of videos Joe, sometimes it's nice just to go back to the basics. Enjoyed this review mate👍 Question for you, do you know when production of the current m140i is due to end? Would still love to get into one eventually. Also, is it true you gave top gear a knock back?🤣 All the best👍

Nice update / review Joe 👍 Great mods and upgrades that really get the best out of the car. I can understand your desire for an M2 - although the gearbox won't be as good 😋 How are you getting on with the Oyster interior?

Great video Joe! Love your car and am impressed with its breath of ability. Wish I could feel comfortable with the size of the car though. Like you I'm over 6 feet tall so the 1 series looks and feels a little small for me. I'm more used to 5 series size vehicle's but sadly no m-lites available! Keep up the good work.

Hi Joe . Have you ever considered making a tv program with mr AMG ? You both would be better than any motor tv out there.

Hey Joe, Amazing how the 39 minutes of the video passed so quickly. I modified my White M135i manual to match the spec of your last car (with Motec of course) in January 18. Love the look of the car and the way it subtly alters the character but is not too shouty. I found the section about the You Tube revenue on your M2 video really interesting. Look forward to your future content. Quick question how much is the LSD, as I’m pondering whether to make this the final mod to my car.

Hi, Thanks for this video. Just wondered if you were happy with the specification/options you chose for your stock M140i. Any options you regret getting / not getting. Watching the video when you ordered it with TRL seems such a long time ago now. Looking forward to seeing you M2 Competition. Keep up the great work !!
