I have always done any mechanical work on this car to BMW specifications.
This car had been my faithful daily driver since April 2021 until recent months.
Reason for sale: the VANOS issue means that, while it drives, it would need attention before being used again. I have a second car which I use. I have been starting and driving this one short distances just to keep it running over the past few months.
All bodywork and paintwork in good order. Paint still polishes up as new. No clearcoat issues or discolouration.
The car sits on its original 16inch BMW mags, wrapped in Pirelli Cinturato P7s. All tyres have lots of life left.
Original interior in clean, excellent condition with no major signs of wear. Original paperwork and manual package are present.
I have replaced the original business CD headunit with a BMW professional CD headunit. All done on stock harnesses.
Boot is clean. Original tools and emergency kit are present.
AC and heating in good working order. AC may need a vacuum and re-gas to bring back to full efficiency.
Viewings welcome on most evenings and weekends.
