A slightly more casual approach to today’s video! Due to the current lockdown in the UK, I’m highly restricted with the content I can make. Either way, we will make do! Stay safe & enjoy 🙏🏻
What’s your favourite car? Or what car would you most want to own in your lifetime ?
Great video by the way 👍 keep it up
How did you get the money to afford this car at 20?
Love the content just curious
Which insurance you using

There a factory in England knocking them out
His money dont jiggle jiggle, it folds...
I'm 22 and got quoted £2,500 for my 1995 1.4 Golf. Insurance is the biggest racketeering scam in UK.
Wtf that can't be right you live In the hood? I had a fiesta st when I was 22 brand new £495 doesn't go any lower I'm 31 now with a mk8 golf gti paying 560

M140i at 22, 4 yrs license 26000 yes 26k.
@jhmr what!!!!!? Man ain't no car worth that Holy shit I'd rather get the bus
@Hasan Mahamud My mate has a M135i tuned to nearly 400 bhp at 31 years old his insurance is £500 ..
I really enjoy these real world figures about car ownership, More like this please 👍 Ps. Don't explain private info like how you can afford it, It's none of the haters business!
Noted, thanks!
I think explaining how he can afford it can motivate some people and it’s interesting
Will H Yeah I agree I’m looking to get a bmw soon and him being young makes me have hope when he talks about insurance and pricing
Mason H exactly
@@willhutchinsonfitness2481 his dad has a Ferrari, I think it goes within saying, how he can afford it
30mpg is brilliant given its performance and being a 3 litre. My fl RS3 long term is 23mpg, however well aware it’s dependent upon how you drive, traffic etc. I genuinely thought your 140 would have been thirstier than your R, clearly not. Good vid 👏
Very informative video! Keep up the great work - also, don't worry about using your phone; just keep practising, you've got this!
1700 for insurance with modifications at 20 is a pipe dream in the inner city. Maybe a Vauxhall Zoe if you're lucky
Great honest content, keep up the good work.
Thanks!
Very Good Video as usual!
keep them coming!👍
Thank you!
The Golf R (along with the S3) are disproportionately expensive because they're the most stolen cars in the UK.
Even in this day in age people are jacking cars!
Any fast compact 4 door (RS3) is a prime candidate as they're predominantly used as getaway vehicles rather than being stolen to order abroad with cars like Land Rovers & X5's
Hardly I got a quote for a golf R and it was about £200 cheaper than the m140i
"Budget tyres...Goodyear"🤔you sure?😂

Good video mate, very clear, love the car & very jealous you have one 👍🏻
Thanks Tom!
Great vid as always 👍🏻
Thanks Louis!
Thank you for this video! I am currently looking at a 2019 i140M and good to have a rough idea for pricing 😄👍🏼
Well done Luke good video again, nice and informative. Real world costs. You can get M135i’s pretty cheap now and this should make people make a better decision whether the ownership will be doable.
Thanks Tom!
Great review Luke...very accomplished 👏
Thank you!
Proper nice looking car mate! Didn't like the black livery at the start but it definitely looks a lot better now I've seen it more often 🙂
Thanks bud!
Good review.
I can confirm the costs for service and spare parts - same in Germany.
But you forgot the number one cost factor: finance rates, depreciation etc
-> If you keep your car only 2-3 years you‘ll most likely see 4.000€ per year in loss of value
M140i is currently €30.000-40.000 in Ireland right now😂😭
its been a week since I joined your channel am real enjoying your content dude big fan bro #south Africa
Thank you so much!
I been watching ur videos for a while and I love how you’ve grown man
Ibrahim Obeid thank you so much!!
Ha! Gayyyyyyyyyy!
I have a 125d msport and I would recommend changing the oil every 9k miles. Secondly forget main dealers for services, take it to an independent specialist. Better all round.
It’s all about the smiles per gallon 😀
Could I ask what air filter your using on the car I’ve got a m135i 2015 but facelift wanted the same intake noise as yours
Between the BMW and golf R which one was most expensive to run and wen coming to the modes you had on both cars which vechicle's mods can you say was most expensive and we know you had some big mods on both the golf R with the exhaust system and BMW with the slip diff
Great video man! Been waiting for a video like this for a while. You might have finally convinced me to trade in my 320d for one 😬😂 Also FYI BMW do discounts on their services fairly often when you book them online, especially around Black Friday. Makes the cost of owning one just slightly less painful.
Thanks Andrew!
Andrew Bowring That's exactly What I did, went from a 320d M Sport to an M240i. 👍😛😎
Enjoying the vids! The premium road tax is £300 on top of the normal tax and it's only for the first 5 years , So £145 + £300 if you have one over 40k. For 600 quid tyres wise I would imagine you can get pilot sport 4s not just the ones it comes with. I've seen people pick up sets for £440 for super sports,. Servicing is really expensive but many have a service pack on them which covers them to the end of the PCP then BMW will have to service it anyway if you chuck it back at them :P
Thanks!
Looked better than mine.neatly done
What insurance company do you use ? It’s tricky finding one for a decent price with mods
300 miles per tank! My last tank did 180 😅
WeiguChicken Burger mine does 600 miles on 45litres 😂😂
@@harveyatkinson9511 My 120d coupe from back in the day would struggle with that!
@@weiguchickenburger920 I don't have a Beemer BTW if I didn't make that clear
I don’t quite get 300 out of a C300
I get 300 from my 1.4 civic 40L😂😂
I'm 36, 1 years no claims, and my annual premium is only £920. It was costing me £149 a month last year but it is what it is is. If you have to think about the running costs don't buy 1, every car cost to run some slightly more than others. On that note if you put your foot down you're looking at 1.7 MPG
It looks soo beautiful
Thank you for the advice 🙏🏼 considering you looked at an A45 and the M140i before you bought this, what would you recommend for me to buy between the two of them considering I am a student that will use the car as a daily driver?
A45 would be the better daily I think!
Really good video👍 surprised how cheap the road tax for the year is though!
Thanks Mike!
Any car under 40k list price has the same road tax cost
That service cost is so much cheaper than I'd have thought! I think I've got to get one of these just suck up the mpg 😂
Great video!!!
Those costs are not that bad considering its a service every 2 years not 1.
And considering discs and pads on other sports can be way more than £550.
£750 every 4 years or 36k miles is not astronomical really.
And could get all of this cheaper at a good independent.
And when your 42 like me your insurance will be under £500 like mine is 😚
The more realistic MPG for the 140i in town is 18/20 mpg. Motorway you will get 37/42 mpg no problem. I can’t see you having 29mpg on average if you drive it hard like you say you do. It’s virtually impossible. I’ve had mine for nearly 2 years and there is no way. A lot of 140 owners would agree. Car looks good though
PeeCarNoo 100% agree. I have a 240i and average 22mpg. Currently averaging 18mpg as I’m driving it harder. For a full tank of v power (roughly £70 from empty) I get on average 200 -220 miles from the tank.
Yeah I agree I'm about 23 on average in mine with a good chunk being in town.
I daily Mine & it sits just under 20mpg. Could easily see 40 on a motorway run though!

You guys must drive very hard as mines my daily and I'm averaging 30 after almost 3 years and 30k miles (auto obvs)
The pricing on servicing are brakes must be all main dealer you would save a huge amount at a BMW specialist using genuine parts..
@R A you clearly know nothing about the motortrade it would not void any warranty at all.. you dont have to take the car to main dealer at all.. as long as OE filter or warranty approved filters are used with the correct oil it will NOT void warranty!!!!
@R A I'm also in the motortrade I work for one of the largest suppliers in the UK not euros.. been at main dealers for 10 years plus.. it does not void your warranty if you been in the trade that long you should know but clearly you do not..
You do know BMW Mercedes dont make their own filter right it Mann Bosch Mahle Wix Cooper Fram etc etc.
You are a typical guy who works for dealership that thinks all after market parts are shit and avoids your warranty.. why dont you get the correct information and come back to talk to me.
@R A also kid fuck off you mug.. I'm in my 30s
@R A Unfortunately you are wrong I have a VW Golf R so that's wrong..
I'm also a branch manager of a motorfactors. I've worked through parts at main dealer from Peugeot apprentice of the year 3 years on the bounce to now running one of the most profitable business with my company..
So Billy fucking big chips who thinks he a upper class wank because he deals with exotics car wow well done..
You still have no clue and if you wish I can send you all documentation on warranty approved parts I see because Unfortunately for me I have to deal with morans like you sometimes the rest are well educated on after market parts.
Also if you read my first comment I said about a specialist garage can use main dealer parts but still save you money..
Go fuck your self keyboard warrior and go wank yourself silly over you exotics!!
R A - Fitted aftermarket discs to my car as i found the genuine ones warp when abused, the car needed a wheel bearing after 38K, BMW did it under warranty, no complaints, no warranty voided :P
Currently in the process of buying a new car, did you look into M240i when shopping around?
what insurance do you use? im 21yrs old with a focus ST 2.0 2018 and they wont let me modify it
Good to know, thanks!
Re Insurance, you're lucky you don't live in London.
Even as an older driver with 9 years NCB I was quoted £3k by my broker for an M140i (Compared to £700 for my existing 330d)
Then through APlan via BMW Car Club it reduced to £840 so check them out.
How do you mange to get 300 miles from a tank. I get around 180 ish and thats with mixed driving. Avg about 17.5 mpg.
Thinking about getting one!
What wheels you got on on the Beemer mate? make and size ?
Awesome looking car man!
Thanks!
3 year service plan on my Golf R mk 7.5 is £420 for 3 years with its first MOT! And my Insurance is £350 a year....Bridgestone tyres £80 each...... after hearing your costs I think I will stick with the R till new one comes out........
Looking to get one next month so a very helpful video, similar age to you (22) so thanks for the heads up👏🏼
Just turn 21 last month and bought a Golf R after owning a 1.2 Corsa and it cost me £1500 annual so I imagine after a year if I wanted a 140i it would help to have had the Golf R in my CV ?
@@JC-cb4xg I’m not 100% sure if it works like that, my 140i is roughly 1.2k but that’s because I’ve got good no claims
Nice video. 30mpg is impressive for a 3L M140i. I only average slightly more at about 34mpg in my Polo GTI 1.8!
I've never serviced at main dealer because they are a rip-off and be honest on resale it doesn't affect that much as long as some history with invoice and stamped you still end up saving money
It looks so good.
Thank you!
I'm 20 and it would cost like 2.5-3.5 grand for an m135i/40i kept on private property. What the heck! The difference due to area is huge!
Take it to the “shops” mate 😎🍻
Think u need to learn how to use a spanner and socket set m8 will save yourself hundreds if not thousands of pounds. Good video tho 👌
😂😂😂😂😂
You don’t buy a car like this to do the maintenance yourself you fool, residual value of a car maintenance by a 20 year old yeah quality
lool its not a bike 😂😂😂
I don't do the work on mine either. Playing mechanic after a day at work or on days off isn't the first thing on my radar. If Id seen this before I got it, it could have put me off... I'm bloody pleased I didn't, it's averaging 25.6Mpg since buying it 7 months ago but I love it. If you don't like the running costs get a dirty diesel
Coming back to this video as I’m looking to get one of these… insurance is nearly 3 grand! With everything to make it as “cheap” as possible. Bloody unreal what’s happened 🤣🤣
Insurance for me decked out on a 340i was under £800 but I'm mid 30s. Tyres ps4 you can get on 18" wheels and are much better than super sport in the wet similar in the dry. 19" on the 340i ps4s were 150 each at the back but 180 for front weirdly. Services are the same (rip off) and brakes the discs should last 2 sets of pads so first time need replacing should be cheaper. On mpg if your on longer runs when you need to be economical mid 40s is achievable but realistically nobody drives like that all the time. Overall though my 340i hasn't cost me as much as I was expecting edit: yet touch wood!
My insurance on the same car costs about the same as your declared mods 😂 some benefits to being 30 odd I suppose. At your age I had a 1.2 Corsa sxi.
Insurance has came down a lot then as I drove a Nissan micra when I was 20-21 and it was a 4year old and it cost me £2600 to insure that was the cheapest and the car only cost me £2400. I was driving an old ford escort for nearly 3 years before I changed to the micra with no accidents but the most I was quoted was £5700 for insurance for a 1.0 Nissan micra 🙈🙈
Few things to add
Do not use bmw dealer for any work other than warranty or recall, resell value wont be affected much or at all and you'll save more money doing it elsewhere than doing it through bmw hoping for higher resell value
Engine Oil
Use your local garage to do the oil that is either bmw approved or work with bmw's, cheaper and 90% sure they are more skilled than apprentice at bmw
Buy your oil from places like opieoils, I use millers(£70/£80 for 6.5L) and bmw oem oil filter(£15), then use my local garage that charge £60 for oil change, youre looking at £155 so you're saving £150 with every service but...I wouldnt change my oil every 18k miles, for this engine and its performance 18k miles, specially from new is stupid, 7.5k/10k miles(if your car is on PCP or lease do not care)
Brakes
You can use Bosch or Brembo oem discs that are £120 each(£240 for front axle) or little bit cheaper and better imo Mtec brake discs, standard or high carbon, around £200 for set of two
and Pads are quite cheap, I recommend set of ds2500, far better than stock at £140 for front axle, and labour should be around £60-£100, altogether £480 with most expensive parts, you're yet again saving, around £100
And for the rear, brake discs from brembo and bosch are around £90-£110 each so £180-£220 for rear axle, brake pads are around same price of £140, labour if you're changing all 4 brakes then it will be £100 if rear or front only then £60, altogether front and rear you're looking at £840 so you're saving nearly £300 👀
Tyres
Unfortunately, there are few ways to save few pounds but no a lot, you can buy tyres from seller on ebay that sell them little cheaper and are legitimate sellers or ebay, you could also buy part worn PS4 or even better goodyear eagle F1 supersport(they're not runflats) for 18s and F1's or PS4S for 19s
So, to sum it up, you cant win with insurance, petrol or tax but you can with few other bits
If you were to change your engine oil and brakes yearly, you're saving about £450, if you drive like Luke and get 300 miles per tank, you can do about 2200 miles with that £450...not bad I'd say
BMW May recommend oil change every 18k miles however if you do do that you run an increased risk of snapping your timing chain.
Just saying, most BMW owners get their oil changed at 10k miles. Enjoy.
Thanks for the info!
I hope you change your oil more frequently than 18,000 miles!!! thats a good way to increase wear on an engine leaving the oil in there that long! longest you should leave oil in a car is 10,000 miles or a year. especially for a performance car.
I’m 30 next year with 7 years no claims and I’ve been quoted £2,300 annually for this car, fully comp, I live in an area which is in the top 3 most expensive places to insure in the UK. Absolutely ridiculous prices🤬
What insurance company are you with? I’m 23 and not many places will touch me on my m135i
30mpg is good really good for a hot hatch especially one of the big engine ones
Good video.
Hey, what wheels are these? M359? Thanks
people bang on about MPG lol i spent 7.5k in just over a year on fuel for a 1.2 corsa. yes i drove flat out and would sit at around 90 on the mway so any of these cars would be the same.
I don’t know if it’s a well known thing but I can unequivocally say the vw blue motion “eco” engines when driven “ enthusiastically “ drink fuel like a stag party at last orders 🤣 I fill up £45-£55 every week in a 1.2 polo tsi blue motion and that’s only around 150-160 miles a week
Mummy and daddy are obviously minted 🙈
30mpg is amazing, my 15 A3 1.6 TDI Stage 1 (160hp) averages an indicated 54mpg but realistically about 50mpg
What air filter setup are you running?
Motech/Pipercross
I just got myself 125i because I'm cheap and I hate to pay so much for fuel, insurance, rego and maintenance. Rather have that in my bank account.
PS brakes are expensive because they're expensive brakes - large discs, better materials, pads that are sport orientated rather than what you get in your Camry. You certainly can do better in the DIY route or even indy
Your mpg is good can’t complain with taht
I have a 2015 m135i ... and I’m averaging 19mpg .... if u don’t go to bmw themselves u can get a major service including spark plugs for £350
what insuraces are you with
Which insurance company are you with because I'm 23 and getting quoted 4 grand
Who are you insured with ?
Daddy’s boy!
Why?
Mentality of a procrastinator.
What insurance company are you with?
@hampshirephoto its 52 L tank unless the shadow edition is 50L thou woudlnt make sense, check your manual to confirm :)
30mpg?! A few years ago when I had one I was getting 18mpg on a good day! Mine never came out of sport plus either
I reset my MPG for a whole day and got 23mpg at best. That was quite alot of dual carriageway driving aswell. No idea how anyone gets 30mpg. For me its normally about 18-19
My cla45 shooting brake does 23mpg at best, that's with my mum borrowing it for the day otherwise it's 17mpg on my daily commute.
Adam I own an s3 too and mainly town driving when I’m in comfort mode driving normally I see around 20-22 mpg in dynamic it’s around 15
Good glad it's not just me with the lead foot 😂
Your M140i looks mad!
Thank you!
Lav mic sounds 👌
Thank you!
you get the same mileage to a tank in this as me in my transit connect diesel van lmao, i need to slow down
That insurance is actually ridiculous!! I’ve had a 118d m sport for past 3 years n my insurance over the years has been 3.1k, 2.5k and now 1.4k and I have a 3 years NCB too.. did a quote on a 140i it was 14k!!!
Im 20, i have 3 years driving experience and ncd and i got quoted £7000 and live in Birmingham
Mike I’m 22 4 years driving 3 years NCB n in Huddersfield!! 14k is ridiculous
I recently have just paid £1.5k on my 3rd year premium on my 1.2 Fiat Punto😭. Next car is gonna be a golf R and thats only £2.6k
If you wanna have a good, strong engine you change oil at 6-7k miles as it says in the book which is provided when you buy the car. The Mann oil, air and fuel filter which are one of the bests cost you altogether 50 pound for the car, around 100 for oil and then 50-70 to get it changed in a good service. Everything you say is overpriced.
Could you please provide your insurer Luke, they seem extremely cheap and I think there are a lot here who would like to benefit
He declares that he's Harry Potter wearing Bear Grylls clothes to get a better deal
I'm still waiting for a video on the lsd you fitted?
Coming soon
Luke, I’m waiting for comments that the clip at 0:48 was filmed during lockdown? 😂😜 ❄️
😭😅😂
£1700😩I thought you was about to say 5k! I’m 17 with a 2004 1.4 fiesta and it cost me £2350 insurance and £200 road tax😭
TilloHD I have the 116i 2013 and it’s my first car. I pay 1700😎
how'd you get 30 mpg, i've got a cupra 300 and only get 25mpg avg, 29 if i drive like a granddad
26mpg average (village/town driving)in my M140, 29mpg best ( motorway)
the golf is in the top 5 cars knicked in the uk..insurance nightmare.
Yeah maybe 6months ago top 5 stolen now are all brand new bmw 😬
you so successful and so young ....wow
Mines averaging 28.4 mpg :-)
You might be getting ripped off with your tires. Mines are 18" Michelin, costing in at £160 per set front and rear, though Toyota give me replacement tires [FREE] when I need them replaced which I've had to do a few times, Don't ask why.
Aged 25. 4 years no claims, no mods declared 5600 for one of these. London is a joke...
I got a polo blue gt I put my mods on insurance and it went down over 100 quid less. Like wtf 😂 cost me 346 quid for the yr.
Love the general video style but some of your figures are waaaaay off, obviously insurance is personal so I can't comment on that, but in terms of other costs, If you ring and speak to the service manager they will always cut you a deal;
Minor (Oil and filter) £170 - Main dealer (Haggled)
Major inc BF change £490 - Main dealer (Haggled)
Pads and sensors all-round - £310 (Paid for parts from a main dealer, fitted by an indi)
Tires (Michelin PS super sport) £112 a corner, front or rear from Costco!
Also generally I find doing motorway miles 40MPG plus is easily achievable, tank to tank record for me is 404 miles (6 speed manual)
So don't be put off thinking its a full-fat M Car service costs, it's really really not! I budget about 25% more than I did for my MK7 ST-3 and I'm not far off :)
Keep up the good videos but I'd definitely encourage you to shop around a little and don't let people rip you off! :)
Thanks for this, gave me some clarity and a different approach when considering getting one myself. I definitely haggle and if your also achieving that mpg then I’m all in 👍
300 miles per tank? I get about that in my 116i. How much does the tank hold?
My 116d holds 520 miles, but sometimes it varies from 450 to 550. Depends on the driving style I guess.
I am 30 y/o, over 10 years no claims, quote for the new shape M135i, £1500, couldn’t believe it considering that was with no mods for a 4 wheel drive 2 litre. Not appy!
Is that insurance monthly
Didn't expect to see 29mpg in one of these...made me think!
Plenty of people out there on the internet are getting over 40mpg from an m140i when driven more sensibly, they're incredible little cars.
@@osrsw6450 yeah done my research since so looks like I'm on the save lol! Some cars fairplay!
