2014 BMW M235i Manual - Saphire Black | M Performance | Stage 1 | H&K | Cat S A genuinely enthusiast-owned BMW M235i finished in the highly desirable Saphire Black, paired with the sought-after 6-speed manual gearbox. With the legendary BMW B58 predecessor N55 3.0-litre turbocharged straight-six, rear-wheel drive and a fantastic specification, this is a proper driver's BMW. The car benefits from a number of genuine BMW M Performance factory options, including: M Performance side skirts M Performance rear carbon fibre spoiler M Performance rear diffuser Heated front seats Cruise control Harman Kardon premium sound system 6-speed manual transmission The car is currently running a Stage 1 ECU calibration by CodeMyBMW, a trusted BMW specialist, giving the car approx 365bhp and 540nm, noticeably sharper performance while retaining excellent drivability. It sounds fantastic too, currently running a backbox delete with Pipe Dynamics backbox/exhaust components. The original factory backbox and original exhaust tips are also included with the car and will be supplied to the new owner. CAT S HISTORY The car is Category S due to a previous minor front-end collision which occurred before my ownership. The damage was relatively minor and included a chipped headlight and the requirement for a replacement crash bar. The vehicle has since been repaired to a high standard and is currently used and driven as normal. I have deliberately included this information so the car's history is completely transparent. Please do your own checks and inspections before purchase. THE IMPORTANT BIT This isn't a basic automatic M235i it's a manual, rear-wheel-drive straight-six BMW, which makes it increasingly appealing to enthusiasts looking for the proper driving experience. The combination of the N55 straight-six, manual gearbox, M Performance styling, Stage 1 tune and Saphire Black paintwork makes this a seriously enjoyable car for the money. Viewing and inspection welcome. Please feel free to ask any questions regarding the vehicle, its history, modifications or Cat S status. Serious buyers are welcome to inspect the car thoroughly before purchase. Private plate will be removed and is not included in sale.
