Hi, how many owners and can you add the service history details please?

Also, was 'replaced the power steering liquid radiator (which had a leak)' done under the warranty?

Thanks :)

I think the car has had (me included) 5 owners. I'll check that and update the post with service history details. Don't be fooled by the high number though, the BMW garages service history is detailed, and it all proove that the car was always treated nicely, serviced regularly, with no major issues ever occurred, no accidents and is in great shape.

And no, the power steering radiator being just a coil shaped hose (rather than an actual radiator), the warranty company decided it was part of normal wear and tear and not a fault.

EDIT: I'm adding here pics of the service history, original spec order sheet, my latest Technosport invoice when I installed exhaust and fixed the leaking power steering radiator.

I would have thought 5 owners was an average number now, but not high

How many people keep a car over two years these days. 5 over 11 years is pretty good.

1 owner cars are a rarity these days and not a guarantee of being looked after.

I do think that removing the wrap will help the sale :thumbsup:

Fair enough, not that I'm against wraps I would just prefer to see it in its original colour

The wrap is definitely a good job, Dub Customs are great. It's impossible to notice it's a wrap unless you open the hood or boot, even the door sills are covered. With a special detailing job it would look even more shiny, but I was lazy about doing that!

I would not take it off as it was a 2k£ job, which protects the underneath paint and is good for another 5/6 years. The color is lovely and MUCH nicer than Imola Red (which - sorry, not sorry - looks dull to me) being darker and metallic, so I suppose a buyer should appreciate it and keep it maybe for at least a couple of years and then eventually go back to silver or whatever. Taking it off, while it looks splendid would be a real shame/waste. Just my two cents!

Attaching a few more pics of post wrap. The Jag that is visible in the pics is the forme car of Sam "Seen through glass", has exactly the same wrap and had the detailing job just done that day.
