E89 in time for the National Meet.
Well, having had two E85s including 9 years with a Z4M I have finally moved on to an E89.
I always loved the E89 in silver, I thought the colour really suited the lines of the car. I also rather like the 293 alloys as they are different from most other BMW styles. Anyhow I saw a car that ticked most of boxes, DCT or auto, at least 3.0i, low miles, black leather, decent spec, mud guards - oh yes, and it was silver with 293s!
Very different beast from the Z4M, more of a GT car which is exactly what I wanted. Lovely to cruise about in, but put it in sport and it will really fly. Looking forward to getting to know it at the National meet. White halos, stubby and a wheel refurbishment of some sort, anyone done 293s in gunmetal?? Pics when I can remember to take some!
