E89 35i DCT

Post by DaveP » Fri Apr 26, 2024 4:43 pm

Looking for good examples with plenty of service history. Ideally <80k miles, and ideally not white. Nav and premium audio would be desirable.

I'm based in Norfolk and London, and happy to travel within reason for the right car.

Enjoy the search…I assume a 35is doesn’t float your boat?
We choose to go to on with this endeavour at this time and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard…
A very modified Atacama Yellow 35is :thumbsup:

I don't mind the idea, but they tend to be more expensive for things that I don't see the added value in.

Maybe, but looking for either might give you more choice.

Good luck anyway. :thumbsup:

For sure although price premiums on older 35is seem to have evaporated…

Cheers. Shame to sell my E85 so soon after fitting your lovely wheels (and after pouring about £3k into it!), but I was almost broken after the 8hr drive back from the Ring last week.

It is a shame, but if you don't fit there's no solution really.

Good luck with your search. :thumbsup:

Remember me sitting in your seats? Remember me saying "no, this will never work". Then I went and bought a set of (half-leather) heated Sports seats at great expense, only to confirm that... it didn't work.

Full marks for effort, fail for actual planning. I like my car so much, but it near damn killed me on that drive.

I certainly do remember that. :lol:

You know the saying "fail to plan, plan to fail"! :wink:

Looks like a tidy car, but it's a trek from me.

For what it's worth, I may consider a manual if someone is selling a good one.

willing to meet you at Bristol Parkway/Temple Meads if it helps, but yeah, still a trek!

Rare cars though, worth some travel :driving:
