Description

Rare 2009 LCI 130i M Sport 6 Speed automatic imported from Japan in 2022 finished in Space Grey metallic with Boston Beige full leather interior. Has covered only 48755 miles, in great condition cosmetically and mechanically with lots of work recently completed - Fully converted to UK spec with MPH speedo and odometer in miles - MOT until August 2025 - LEZ/ULEZ compliant - Road tax only 345 for 12 months compared to 710 for UK cars - Has the powerful, smooth and very reliable N52 3.0 straight 6 engine which sounds great. Mated to the slick shifting ZF 6 speed gearbox which also has a sport mode for quick manual shifts. Handling is fun being rear wheel drive with M Sport spec springs/dampers but also comfortable and quiet for long journeys. The M Sport trim means it has the nicer exterior bumpers and 18" wheels, inside it has the sports steering wheel with paddle shifters along with sports front seats with adjustable side bolsters. - Japan imported BMW's are becoming more popular due to their much higher spec and condition which is evident with this car too. The bodywork is in excellent condition with zero rust on paintwork, the undercarriage looks like a 3-4 year old car. The car has been maintained in Japan mechanically as this is a strict requirement in Japan. LCI 130i's are very rare in the UK but were available in Japan longer so has the updated idrive, LED light bar taillights, staggered 18" 208M wheels and efficiency updates for the engine. Most of the equiment fitted to this car would have been expensive UK options to name a few, full leather interior, heated front seats, electric front seats with driver memory, exterior light package (LED lit door handles), HID headlights, rear spoiler and professional media. - Lots of mechanical work carried out recently using genuine parts. Replaced oil/oil filter, air filter, pollen filter, spark plugs, gearbox fluid, diff fluid. Also replaced the rocker cover gasket which is the only real known issue with this engine. 2x ABS wheel sensors fitted as well as a genuine BMW battery properly coded to the car. 4x Uniroyal Rainsport tyres fitted after which a 4 wheel alignment was done. Cosmetically the wheels have been refurbed with new centre caps, full machine polish with wax coating, new black mats fitted. Digital MPH speedo was coded as well as auto lock and DRL lights. Android widescreen stereo fitted with Bluetooth and USB ports. - Great looking and sounding car, happy to discuss further as too much to list. Next MOT due 06/08/2025, Part service history, Grey, 1 owner, £7,295
