If you’re dreaming of an M2 but need the practicality of a 5-door, this BMW 135i offers the perfect solution—thanks to some remarkable upgrades from Birds, the well-known BMW specialists. This car now delivers driving dynamics that come very close to the M2, and with just a bit more engine tuning, it could get all the way there., Upgrades:, The current owner sought to enhance the feel and response of the car and went straight to Birds for their renowned B-Series sports suspension. This upgrade includes specially valved Bilstein dampers and Eibach springs, tuned to Birds’ own specifications and designed to tackle the bumpy UK roads with ease. Developed and signed off by legendary ex-racing driver James Weaver and his chassis engineer Pete Weston, this suspension transforms the 135i's ride and handling., Additionally, the car is equipped with a Quaife ATB Limited-Slip Differential (LSD). This unique gear-based design progressively transfers torque to the wheel with more grip, unlocking the car’s true potential under acceleration. Unlike traditional LSDs that use clutches, the Quaife LSD doesn’t require servicing or maintenance and comes with a lifetime guarantee. It works silently and seamlessly with the car’s existing electronics, offering better traction and cornering without the wear and tear of a traditional LSD., Factory Specification:, Outside of the Birds upgrades, this 135i is generously optioned from the factory with features including:, • BMW Assist, • BMW Loud Speaker System, • BMW Professional Multimedia & Sat Nav Package, • Cruise Control with Brake Function, • Driver Comfort Pack, • Electric Front Seats with Driver Memory, • Front and Rear Parking Sensors, • Glass Sunroof, • Rear Parking Camera, Ownership and History:, This 135i has had three previous owners and is currently part of a remarkable car collection. Unfortunately, due to limited space, the owner is reluctantly parting ways with this well-maintained car. It has been serviced in line with BMW’s recommended schedule throughout its life, ensuring that it remains in excellent mechanical and cosmetic condition., In conclusion, this 135i, enhanced by Birds upgrades, offers a near-M2 driving experience with the added practicality of a 5-door. It's the perfect blend of performance, comfort, and usability. , Next MOT due 25/10/2024, Black Leather interior, Black, 3 owners, Thank you for considering Prestige Performance Centre for your next car purchase. 5* Google reviews, £15,700
