Car has had a lot of love and parts changed and updated the list is too long to even add here on this listing
I have added it to the end of the photos
The car wants for nothing mechanically and is in superb condition overall, the dynamics and engine response will be beyond expectations, overall the car is very well sorted with no expense spared. With the mods, tune and gearing the cars in gear performance outruns a e92m3
There is no slack in this car - the engine response is immediate, visceral and the chassis response is super tight and engaging whist remaining compliant for everyday road use
In short the car is an experience to drive and a joy to live with.

Bad things
