RENT A BMW 130i (E87)
FOR NÜRBURGRING

A RAW AND MECHANICAL BMW 130i RENTAL CAR FOR THE NÜRBURGRING

Our BMW 130i may come in compact hatchback form, but it packs a seriously rewarding, analog experience under the skin. Fitted with a naturally aspirated 3.0L straight-six engine and a crisp 6-speed manual transmission, this car brings back the pure joy of driving – no turbos, no filters, just mechanical feedback. The hydraulic steering alone is a throwback that driving enthusiasts will appreciate, especially on the demanding Nürburgring Nordschleife.

Tuned to 285 PS, the engine is mated with a 6 kg single-mass flywheel and LUK Racing clutch, giving it razor-sharp throttle response. Optimized with cooling from a Setrab oil cooler, the system stays consistent even under heavy use. Gear changes come via a Coolerworx short shifter, offering not just precision but true mechanical satisfaction. Add to that a lightweight lithium battery, stripped trim, and a high-flow Burger Motorsport intake paired with a BMW 135i sport exhaust, and you have a track rental that feels as alive as it sounds.

This car is built for Nürburgring rental drivers who are ready to graduate from beginner cars but aren’t yet looking for the commitment of a full-blown race setup. It’s challenging in all the right ways – responsive, predictable, and endlessly rewarding to drive at pace. Whether it’s your fifth lap or your fiftieth, the 130i gives you exactly what you put into it.

Built with Purpose – Upgrades That Matter on the Nürburgring

This is not a lightly modified street car – it’s a purpose-built track machine. The ST XTA suspension provides exceptional damping and adjustability for the Nordschleife’s variety of corners, while BMW E92 M3 control arms, upgraded anti-roll bars, and a full set of uniball bushings give the chassis maximum stability. A solid-mounted rear subframe and Millway uniball mounts eliminate flex and keep the rear end planted under load.

Braking performance is just as serious: BMW M4 M Performance calipers paired with 370mm front and 345mm rear rotors and steel braided lines. The car rides on 18″ Autec Clubsport wheels with 10mm spacers and 255-section tyres, offering a planted stance and great lateral grip through every section of the Green Hell.

Mechanical Feel and Driver-Focused Interior

RECARO Pole Position bucket seats keep you secure and connected. The Alcantara M Performance steering wheel with a 12 o’clock marker reinforces the motorsport feel, while every control is within reach and purpose-built. It’s minimal, functional, and engineered for the task: getting you around the Nürburgring confidently, lap after lap.
