Description

Bought & used by my step son, & it's generally a decent spec'd car with folding wing mirrors, front and rear parking sensors, professional radio, and alloy wheels. Ascetically the car does not have any rust, but does have some dints and scratches which I have tried to deal with the best I can - I would say the bodywork condition is average to good, its not terrible but its certainly not in A1 condition. Interior condition is good, again not perfect with a few scuff to plastics etc. but nothing major to note. Car drives very well, no knocks or bangs - has 4 budget tyres on it (1 replaced a couple of weeks ago due to a tiny side wall leak), the other 3 with around 5mm on them. Recent service (oil, oil filter, air filter) from local garage and fresh 12 month advisory free MOT last week. 1 key, and V5C present - no documented service history other than the above recent one with it but I do have record of servicing from the detailed inspection report when I bought the car. Over the last 6 weeks spent approximately 950 GBP on buying and fitting new parts including 4 x NGK spark plugs, 4 x Bosch coil packs, 4 x BMW injectors from WTDiesel, 1 x MAF, 1 x BMW NOx sensor, 1 x oil filter housing gasket, 1 x bonnet switch, 2 x BMW replacement headlights, 2 x wing mirror glasses, 1 x replacement rear wiper motor assembly, replacement engine trims, & parcel shelf. Unfortunately the car has an intermittent misfire that becomes more apparent when warm - I have done what I can in replacing parts (which is the sum total of my expertise being totally honest) & do not have the time or expertise to diagnose further so selling as is, may be an easy fix for someone knowledgeable. I do have a replacement genuine oil pressure sensor & harness (occasionally throws a error when warm which I think is related to the sensor but will need confirming), & passenger seat sensor mat emulator (shows a error when someone sits on the passenger seat) that haven't been fitted yet but will be included, along with a spare injector, & 2 spare Bosch coil packs. The only things that do not work on the car are the heated wing mirrors (fuse is ok so might be a wiring harness in the door issue), the rear washer element (could be a blockage but may need a new motor which is a cheap part) and the passenger seat does not hinge forward. Please feel free to come & have a look / test drive if you are interested, we're based in Haslington near Crewe, cash or cleared funds required to drive away.
