I wonder if the lonely Imola Red e85 is on this forum? It's my favourite BMW colour and I'd only seen it on M's.

I was surprised but I liked that combination on the OP (I remember that green coupe two years ago at the National - it was stunning outside the BMW dealer stop we had)

Looks quite up-market with that colour and interior and being an SE with low miles I bet it's a lovely drive :thumbsup:

Low mileage Zeds are seeking strong prices.

Deep green - one of my fav colours. If I could find a coupe in my spec with cream leather I would swap mine for it :cry:

there are 2791, if 20% have been wrote off i'd still think there would be more than 400 taxed
