Same here, becoming a BMW fanboy doesn't just happen at old age you grow with it and no one can change your mind about it. And once you get to own one you will never enjoy driving anything else somewhere somehow even the sharpest of Porsches will excite you but you'd still miss your driving pleasure from a BMW,it's not perfect but it perfectly does something in your spirit.
@mayormsuthu1465 Exactly, I can't wait until I can afford insurance on one, even a 118d or 118i I would happily have but the Insurance companies seem to think that even the base BMW models are some sort of super car, prices are outrageous compared to other similar brands.
@@neil5242 I’m gassed! I’ve been dreaming of this moment for a long while. And as you mentioned that’s the first thing I’m going to do; (Michelin PS2-all round).

I'm not sure what mods are available for the RS3, but I'd just grab the M140i, grab a downpipe and high pressure fuel pump (£600-1500 depending on how naughty you're feeling about complying with emissions regs), and put BM3 Stage 2+ on it.

Im not sure about that in all honesty, I had a stage 1 m140i, and then bought a mk3 TTRS and tuned it to stage 2 and by no means would it have obliterated the 140. TTRS being lighter than an 8v RS, I think you’d be surprised. Looking back, as good as the TTRS was, I miss the 140i more.
@gw7624 would need femto unlocking though to match the performance since they're all locked after 2020 which is massive ball ache, heard the 340 has solid handling though
Great review! I watched your review a few months of the bmw 440i gran coupe and it persuaded me to buy one! I love the B58 but still not brave enough to swing it round the round abouts like you🤣
Also worth noting that when you turn the TC fully off in the M140i it's effectively in snow mode. To get best performance drive in Sport+ setting. I've got an M240i and it's definitely slower with the TC fully off. BMW recommend that setting when in snow as throttle response is dulled down and TC doesn't go berserk trying to correct all the wheel slippage in snow. You should reliably get a 4.5s 0-60 time in Sport+ with warm tyres and not cold/damp weather.
Personally I think it’s a little unfair to put an M lite against a full fat RS, i think the M2 would be a better comparison however with that been said I think the M140i does itself proud. I’m a big fan of both cars 👌🏼 P.S I can run fairly consistent 0-60 runs ( Dry 😅) using draggy around 4.7 seconds without launch control. Cool videos BTW
Yeah tbf My own 140i will do 4.4 all day on Michelin ps5 tyres. This car has the super sports which on a dusty road just don’t grip. Gotta keep the test consistent though.
Not a truly fair comparaison, i understand that you didn't have an xDrive lying around but still. Also, as an option BMW offered adaptative suspension on the F series.
Man there’s some deluded haters on here who think the m140i is faster than it actually is. Any rs3 FL will pull bus lengths on a 140i stock for stock and tuned for tuned.
I hate it when people compare the two together. The RS and the AMG are your hyper hot hatches. Your golf r, s3, cupra, type R is your hot hatchbacks. The m140i can't really be put in a neat little box it is a one-off rear wheel drive 3l inline 6 little beauty. So please if your going to compare a full fat RS then maybe a more suitable car would be full fat m2 yes?
He states this at the start of the video. The comparison is purely can you save your cash and get the m140i for less money without any loss of enjoyment, driver engagement, power and speed etc…
@@Yhyujss well done to you. Some people might not, and may be asking themselves this questions. Lucky for them, he’s made a video. And I enjoyed it. He can make a video of whatever he wants.
I’m a bmw fan boy and drive a 125i, the 60 sprint was surprising although you can clearly see once the 140 is moving it’s rapid!! Would pick the Audi though, interior looks better and the sound of that 5 pot is very nice indeed and reminds me of the Audi Quattro 2.2 from many moons ago. Yes M2 would be a better comparison, but it was an excellent video 👍
RS3 can be playful if you fit bigger rear arb get a proper geo setup .. I went to string theory Ben is a genius .. my car after I could power slide camp corner at coombe over 100mph after much to the Marshalls surprise . I asked for it to be tail happy and it was even lift off oversteer no issues after !!
I always said that out the box the Audi is better day to day and I’m a bmw fan since young but the rs3 is just abit more special in my opinion the bmw isn’t a full m car so u can’t compare them really. Love both engines but bmw should’ve made a full M version with lsd and suspension even given the uk a xdrive and just a true M then I feel it would’ve been better. So you get a m140 you spend say 10k in mods but your still not in a full M car.
Considering how you can pick up high spec examples at under 20k it is hard to argue that the 140i isn't the best bang for buck. However the interior, sound and overall quality of the daza especially for uk conditions and with their prices dropping too they edge it imo
Stupid question here but in still unsure of a clear reason…Why is the traction control turned off when your want to drive sporty cars fast like th rs3 ? Not knowing a lot about cars obviously my take would be keep it on to help keep u in th road if things get a wee bit out of control ? Cheers
M140 better driver's car and it's not even the full fat M car which is the real comparison against the RS3- the M2 of course. Shows how good the M140i is, it gets pitted against the model above it and Audi's best yet comes out just fine!
I drive and Audi... But prefer BMW. IF I WASN'T SO BROKE, I would be getting a sensible, relatively comfy and decent performance 530d x-drive. (2021 version) But I earn less than average. Ah well!
You can't really compare an RS3 with a BMW M-lite like the M140i/240i. The S3 is the Audi equivalent, Audi RS is comparable to BMW full M cars like the M2 in this instance. You could probably buy an M2 for less than an RS3 of same age/miles so that would be a more interesting comparison
Love my M140i so much that it is actually my 2nd one! Couldnt live without one to be honest, just uploaded a vid actuality, more to come. Such a little weapon at a great price.
I had mine 4 years, loved it. I moved on to an OG M2, and it's levels above for handling, cornering, damping. It's not as fast in a straight line though (my M140i was 455bhp/634nm), as it's a standard M2.
140i with limited slip differential and front arm m2-m4 and you can drive seriously! In stock condition isn’t a sport car but not more modifications for change it!
The M140i is a better car than the RS3, despite the value difference. The engine is superior and if you're a true petrol head, rwd will give you more smiles per mile than 4wd. I've owned both at the same time, but have kept the M140i for 7 years. It is a fantastic car and I'll probably never sell it. Finally, I don't know how you got the RS3 to run 30-70mph quicker than the M140i, because that's the exact opposite to every other review. The RS3 is quicker off the line, but the M140i will beat it on the roll.
@ParagonCarsLondon sorry mate, it just isn't. In fact, it's not even that close. RS3 8V facelift you tested here, vs M140I, according to Fastest Laps: 60 - 100 kph 3.9 s vs 2.9 80 - 120 kph 3.9 s vs 3.1 80 - 160 kph 8.3 s vs 7.3 I like your channel though. Keep up the good work.
@@ParagonCarsLondonyou're wrong mate. There's something definitely wrong with that M140i or it wasn't being driven in the same manner as the Rs3. Every single other review proves the M140i is the quicker accelerating car. I mean your 0-60 is way slower than claimed makes me think that particular car isn't running right.
@@neil5242 fastestlaps tells you that an RS3 is slower from 60-100kph than it is in this video from 30-70mph in 3.4? Are you sure you aren’t looking at in gear data? I’ve just checked myself, and that’s exactly what you’re reading, take note of what gear it says they’re in on the left in those comparisons. It matches with what he claims about torque, but sitting in 4th at 60kph isn’t exactly optimal for either car let’s be real
Wins in a rolling race? I take it you mean a tuned m140i vs a stock rs3? Because any sort of tune on the Audi would smoke a tuned m140i. It’s a proper man’s car the rs3, the m140i is for people who are broke on minimum wage and can’t afford an m-car so settle for a cheap tacky 1 series with a big engine 🤷♂️🤣🤣🫣
Sorry, but why are you comparing an entry level BMW with an RS3? Shouldn't you be comparing the Audi with an M3? Perhaps compare the 140 with an A1 Sportback?
Mate, what are you smoking? The M2C is a far superior car in every way to the RS3; even the 2024 model. The RS3, actually any fast Audi, is a blunt instrument. You sit way too high so you feel like you're in church, the engine is mounted in front of the front axle which is why it understeers like a b*stard, and they aren't particularly reliable either. Audis has, and always will be, a VW in a frock. Just my opinion, of course😂
@@neil5242 I was talkin about the generation shown in the video and u don’t compare a comp to the regular rs3 But even so the new rs3 with its “understeer” still beats the m2 around a track. And that “vw in a frock” was the blueprint for the Bugatti veyron, huracan and urus but wtv u say buddy 😂
The fact you’re comparing a BMW ‘m lite’ to an Audi RS model says to me that BMW ‘M’ cars are streets ahead of Audi in terms of performance. How many videos do you see of S3’s being compared to M cars? The m140i is the perfect project car. Great engine and box, just throw some cash at suspension, diff, brakes and your onto a winner.
ua-cam.com/video/2xwecTp91-o/v-deo.htmlsi=CaWbPJWp58T6Nwox I always watch the above for a laugh. That's an ex-Porsche pro driver talking about Audi's top model vs BMWs lite version. The Beemer wipes it. As Clarkson once said, most fast Audis are a bit...hopeless 😂 Only rated the TT RS, RS4 V8 and R8.
Look at it this way.. the fact that they even consider putting the M140i up against a RS3 as a worthy contender.. must be saying something.. even if ppl think it's an unfair comparison..

Mate, what are you smoking? The M2C is a far superior car in every way to the RS3; even the 2024 model. The RS3, actually any fast Audi, is a blunt instrument. You sit way too high so you feel like you're in church, the engine is mounted in front of the front axle which is why it understeers like a b*stard, and they aren't particularly reliable either. Audis has, and always will be, a VW in a frock. Just my opinion, of course😂
@@neil5242 I was talkin about the generation shown in the video and u don’t compare a comp to the regular rs3
But even so the new rs3 with its “understeer” still beats the m2 around a track. And that “vw in a frock” was the blueprint for the Bugatti veyron, huracan and urus but wtv u say buddy 😂
Yeah on drag races, rolling m140 wins. Better torque.
Better comparison would be the audi s3, not the rs3. Then audi rs3 vs m2. 🤷♂️😅
The S3 isn't nowhere near the M140 mate 😂
Launch cheat... In the m140, launch in 2nd gear with a brake boost, low 4s all day 👍👍
True but you'll lug the gearbox in the end mate.
The fact you’re comparing a BMW ‘m lite’ to an Audi RS model says to me that BMW ‘M’ cars are streets ahead of Audi in terms of performance. How many videos do you see of S3’s being compared to M cars? The m140i is the perfect project car. Great engine and box, just throw some cash at suspension, diff, brakes and your onto a winner.
i hate how your holding the gears on high speeds
Time depends on slope...

I always watch the above for a laugh. That's an ex-Porsche pro driver talking about Audi's top model vs BMWs lite version. The Beemer wipes it.
As Clarkson once said, most fast Audis are a bit...hopeless 😂 Only rated the TT RS, RS4 V8 and R8.
Not a fair comparison … it’s an m lite
Look at it this way.. the fact that they even consider putting the M140i up against a RS3 as a worthy contender.. must be saying something.. even if ppl think it's an unfair comparison..
M140i should be compared to an S3
RS3 should be compared to an M2 where it would lose
The S3 isn't even on the same page as the 140😂
When making these reviews please don't laugh because it's really fucking annoying
Someone’s on their period. 🤐

Audi is such a boring look at me brand. Unreliable dsg box too.
Bloody hell these cars are done to death! Nothing new to see here! Waste of time video
M140 entry-level BMW. Hahahahahaha Xmas lights on the dash..any day now 😅😅😅😅
