Can I ask you knowledgeable folk please - the MFSW in non-M cars, does it have the tri-colour M stitching or is it black stitching?
Cheers

My stitching is also black - but sadly it isn't an MFSW wheel. :(

But after a new battery in December 2016 at an average speed of 37.2 mph my OBC is showing an average of 32.4 mpg (but then it isn't used for any commuting). :lol:

Why ? OK, the wheels and interior colour is not to my taste, but otherwise I couldn't spot anything particularly bad...

That's it, the interior and wheels are pretty gross and will put off the majority of buyers whatever the spec' and history.

Couldn't disagree with you more, they are quality BBS rims and I like lighter interiors. It's not like it's poo brown or something.

This looks like a nice well cared for example.
The ad reads well.
The interior probably not to everyone's taste.
Wood dash and too much beige.

I like the colour scheme (other than the wood, although that can be fixed), but that does look strong money for an auto with that mileage IMHO and based on my purchases!

He'd do himself a favour reverting to BMW wheels. Those brakes look like they've led a hard life and possibly aftermarket? Something about the drilled discs and BBS wheels are telling me it's been put through it's paces... Call me judgemental :rofl:

I'll guys, had a test drive in the Z4 Coupe today.
Does anyone recognise it? Maybe a forum members old car? It drove well, very strong engine and gearbox but a fair few scuffs on the bodywork and interior, especially the steering wheel stereo controls and interior door handles had taken a pounding from wedding rings etc. The front valance had seen a curb, mostly underneath but still scraped nonetheless and a chunk out of one of the wheels. Dealer said he'd detail it to get the bodywork scuffs out and repair the wheel. Thought i could hear a slight whine on test drive, it wasn't the gearbox possibly fuel pump or an engine ancillary hopefully not the differential.
Any thoughts guys? :thumbsup:
