Its not a crazy ask at £15k for a well specced Msport 35I on 52k . He's also open to offers so that tells me he's braced for a drop so possibly £14k could bag it ??
You need to get to it & listen ( cold + warm) , drive & look . Its had mods to the backboxes ( or tips at least) so could have been tweaked in other areas too :wink:
Id be asking how long the owner has had it & more importantly what receipts there are for work done in the last 20k / 2years
If nothing the very least id be braced for injectors + waterpump sometime soon :cry:

nice, can't say I like the roundels, but thats a small detail on an otherwise nicely prepared car. I'm biased but I do like the de-badged and LCI indicator look :)

Not sure whats going on with the front bumper/splitter just under the numberplate?

Forgive my ignorance guys but is it an M

As spotted not sure what the mark is under the reg plate

Cheers for all the replies guys, i'm coming from E46 and not up to speed the E89 yet.

I asked a mate who is a top BMW technician about them and he didn't mention injector issues

Front and rear bumpers are 35is, horrible wheel and body colour combo but as said that’s down to preference. Looks a nice car, good spec too, well worth a look I’d say. :thumbsup:
