    • @thebimmerbros
      @thebimmerbros  11 месяцев назад +3

      I appreciate the comment. The G80 M3 is totally different to be honest. It’s faster, but feels safer by having better control with the 4WD. The M2 had to be sold due to the mileage. It was a sweet spot before the value starts to drop.

  • @markas2090
    @markas2090 11 месяцев назад +3

    very good and informative video!!! Make more videos like this about your m3. also I wanted to ask how does the selling car and bank thing works. Did you fully pay for your car to the bank and after you sold it you did not have to pay anything to the bank or did you sell your car and had to pay the remaining amount of money to the bank of the lease? How does this thing work?

  • @AarmOZ84
    @AarmOZ84 11 месяцев назад +1

    I knew stepping into a BMW M2 that tires would be the most frequently replaced part. It is the tough line between an awesome performance tire that wears down quickly and a tire that won't wear down, but won't stick to the road the way you need it to for a high performance car.

    Nice comprehensive analyzis, but would have been really nice to add the VAT at the end calculation / ownership or km cost etc. For example, in EST do you get fuel without VAT for any company car? Your car held its value exceptionally well, I think mainly because of the car market, you bought and sold it at the "prime time". Here in Finland these M2's did cost 55-60ke after the Covid (early 2021), but now even the highest mileage early production ones are around 57ke.

    As a UK watcher what weirded me out is that you were able to put an aftermarket down pipe and exhaust on a leased vehicle through your business and the modifications did not void your extended warranty? Im assuming these are different in Estonia

    • @thebimmerbros
      @thebimmerbros  11 месяцев назад

      Absolutely no problem with doing that. As long as I do only visual or exhaust tuning. If I tune the ECU or modifiy the engine parts, then it would be a problem.

    Word of caution for anyone wanting to replicate the same tax loophole: in many countries you could get in big trouble for not paying VAT if you use a "company car" for personal use. Do it at your own risk.
