Just found it, thanks.
It does look nice but was hoping for slightly lower mileage. May investigate though.

FWIW I wouldn't worry too much about mileage on the N52 engine as they seem pretty robust.
I've got my 4th one now in a 330i that has done 124K miles and still pulls smoothly and strongly to the red-line when there is an open road!
Based on a detailed database compiled by a forum member only 593 Auto Coupes were registered in the UK so you might need to be open to compromise, but good luck anyway.
Coupes because stunning!

Mine is a manual and has done 113,000 and i’m not sure i could tell the difference with one that has done 70,000, the only downside if the resale value when you come to sell it, but then you’ll pay less when you buy it, swings and all that

Good to hear the N52 stands up to higher mileages well.
Thanks.

Look for the ‘180k E86’ post. I replaced all the suspension but the engine was running like new.

Well managed to finally pick up a car.
It has 89k miles and lots of history, including some big recent spends. (Bilstein B12 kit 5k miles ago).
It needs some work but that's the bit I enjoy, so no worries.
A few of the for sale pics attached.
