Description

BMW E82 Coupe in Monaco Blue. 2 keys. The car is an SE spec but came with M sport suspension, sunroof, heated seats and electric memory seats as well as full leather, I think the only thing SE about it are the SE bumpers. The car has some oil leaks around the valve cover gasket and the oil filter housing gasket, these are slow leaks and don't seem to drop the oil level. Air con is in working order, car runs and drives as it should, the car is completely stock and hasn't even been mapped to the 130i power, this along with the number of oil changes should indicate the engine is quite healthy despite the mileage. Gearbox and clutch are smooth and trouble free, the car will go to redline and shift just fine. The gearbox was serviced last year so this won't need doing again. The car also had a new oil sump installed last year as well as new brakes and brake fluid during a service. I have not had the car very long, I bought it from Windsor around Oct 2024 and had some plans for it, however, I decided to buy a 2.8 Z3 which I really like. The intention was to keep both for a while but I can't justify the extra cost for the benefit and convenience of the use of two cars right now. I will still be driving it daily to work as well as driving the new Z3 so the mileage will increase, It is a car you can jump in and drive and not have to worry about anything, it's not given me any grief day to day and has been driven Scotland and Wales no problem. Last years MOT mentioned minor subframe corrosion, this isn't bad, its more like surface rust, if you wanted you could clean this off and I doubt it would come up on another MOT but I never bothered. The car has a crack in the rear bumper from the previous owner, he told me a pothole caused it. The car also has stone chips ect so it depends on how far you want to go with it. You could put some M sport bumpers on it and get the 130i map and it would be a fast, good looking car. The original reg is RJ58 HKX and it will be put back on the car for the sale, J5 VDK is not a part of the sale. Feel free to give me a call or message and will be happy to tell you anything else you want to know about the car.
