Description
Stunning example of a 2013 BMW 125i. Have owned since 2016 and it has been absolutely fantastic. Only selling due to moving to New Zealand otherwise would keep for many more years. Generally it's been used for long road trips including across Europe. It has never let me down since owning it.
The car will come with a new MOT.
The 125i are very rare. Lighter and cheaper to run than a M135i. Cheaper insurance, tax and 40mpg with very strong performance.
Very high spec car with cruise control, auto dimming headlights, heated seats, black leather seats (in great condition), big blue brembo brakes.
Engine pulls fantastic, gearbox super smooth and brakes are good (no juddering). Drives like half the miles.
Stunning example which has been thoroughly looked after. Mountains of service and preventative maintenance has been performed to date, including:
- regular oil (max 10k intervals), filters and brake fluid servicing
- complete suspension overhaul January 2025 (104k miles) including 4 * Bilstien B4 (high-quality OEM replacement) dampers, 4 * springs, 4 * top-mounts, 4 * bump-stops. The suspension is all brand new. It cost 1,1k.
- timing chain been replaced (very common failure point on these engines)
- 2 new window regulators in 2025. These wear over time, particularly in winter and the cables snap stopping the windows raising and lowering but these have just been replaced so not a concern for the new owner.
- gearbox and differential oil replaced twice in my ownership including September 2025.
All this preventative maintenance is to cover all the issues that can crop up with a F20/F21 BMW with 80k miles.
The paintwork is in fantastic condition for the age. Regularly washed and waxed before winter. The usual light road rash on the front bumper and some stone chips as to be expected but looks great for its age. Some slight curbing on the wheels but the wheels are taken off and washed each winter whilst the winter wheels are on. Blue big Brembo brakes really complement the paint and overall look of the car.
