Looks a peach that Ray, red suits the E89 very well to my mind. I see it has the latest gear selector lever, and if the push pull each paddle become a bore you can change them for the latest pull pull each side very easily.
Very nice, glad you've got something at last.

New car time
Looks great, let us know how you find it compared to your previous e85
I've recently changed as well, no regrets about my 2litre turbo-I love driving it.
Ps, there was a bit of a background drone initially, but I discovered it was emanating from a few forum members whining about the 4 cylinder engine

re the shifter, in "chilled mode" driving with a palm on the shifter, i have on 2 occasions now pushed it inadvertently from drive to neutral whilst slowing down. somewhat embarrassing when you next go to pull away..

Looks very nice OP - pleased for you.
I'd be interested to know more about this; I'm not gelling with the push/pull paddles.john-e89 wrote:Looks a peach that Ray, red suits the E89 very well to my mind.

The latest pull pull each side paddles fortunately are plug and play. Go to YouTube and search E89 paddle change, there is a start to finish guide from a Zteve, it's a bit wobbly but he goes through the whole process, bit fiddly but nothing difficult.lordgrover wrote:Looks very nice OP - pleased for you.
