Two from this weekend… a bright yellow E89 in the EH carpark at Avebury, Wilts and a white one that passed us on the A421 dual carriageway heading in to Milton Keynes (Bucks side) on our journey home, around 7pm (Sunday 18th) Thanks for the hazards flash, so many rudely don’t bother!

Bath is absolutely overrun with Z4s at the moment...

Chap in a DSB e89 flashed at me on London Road recently.

Black e89 with plate ending BYE passed me on a36.

And, most excitingly, I pulled up alongside a white 35is at traffic lights - very rare to even see one!

Saw a lovely Melbourne red one in Weston last weekend, quickly followed by a black e89.

Got to Newport ands a 20i orange parked outside M&S - looked lovely

Looks almost like fibre glass. A trick of the light?

And could you see what the black 'straps' were for?

Think it’s cosmetic, holding up the front bottom bumper

I can’t remember seeing those bonnet bumps nor the lip under the headlamps.
The arches are wide as well.

Basically, it’s an add on body kit!

So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with. :thumbsup:

Black and de-badged - like mine - looking very shiny on A46 toward Warwick / Stratford. Personalised plate. Didn’t get to flash as we were in our Fiat 500 (that would have been bit weird) :driving:

A question of all show but no go…a 23i…
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…
