    I recently fitted a set of Bilstein B4 Shocks to the BMW E87 130i 1 Series, let’s see how they perform

    Thank you very much for following up on our request 🙏!! I’m now convinced and I will change mine with the same !!

    I went down the Sachs route but agree that unless you're going to 'track day' the car often, the standard shocks n springs are more than adequate. Getting off the run-flats is a must!

      For sure. I went with Sachs ones on my old E46 coupe, they are pretty much on par with the B4’s, I believe the B4’s are about 10% stiffer though

      @@MTechGuy Gotta remember that the roads are a lot bumpier up here in the UK - and getting worse 😡
      See you've got plenty of cyclists out there that can rather hinder your driving progress/experience! 😉🚴‍♂️

    Thankyou for the video.....Did you purchase a full kit ? Springs,stops etc

    • @MTechGuy

      No, just 4 shocks. I kept my original M Sport springs as they were in good shape. Fitted new bump stops & dust boots though. Check out my previous videos on fitting them

    i replaced mine with the b12 kit - B8+eibach it's a good combo plants the car to the road very well, personally found the b4+Msprings underdamped and over sprung, they dampers were pretty tired so could have had something to do with it also a bit floaty.

      That’s what my original Sachs shocks felt like before I changed them out

    Hey I'm considering getting one of these as a daily driver, it has 120k miles. Is it a good car? Has it given you many headaches over these couple years? Any tips on what to look for when purchasing one?

      Originally that as the plan, but I might sell the car now, not sure
