Suspenders... Don't be keeping us in them :D :poke:
E85 3.0Si auto in Midnight Blue 82k miles - I have always wanted an E85 in Monaco, but I actually prefer Midnight having now seen it in the metal, kind of purpley-blue. Car is great mechanically, needs some minor cosmetics.

Massive pile of invoices, recently had 1.1k spend at RBM circa 4k miles ago; full gearbox service, inspection 2 etc.

has some dubious ‘Mpower’ badges which will be removed in due course, along with some aftermarket DRL’s…. Which will also go. Has front and rear hard-wired dash cams, which will definitely stay. I think the audio has been upgraded, as definitely not standard tweeters and sounds pretty decent compared to normal. I think it has a roof module of some sort as roof goes down from the key. Also has aftermarket Bluetooth of some sort, haven’t worked it all out yet :thumbsup:

I’ll probably get a photo tomorrow :thumbsup:

Yes, she’s very happy with her own new convertible ..but has already asked if she’s insured on it ‘as it’s an auto with parking sensors’ :rofl:

Not sure, I’ll have look at the ‘spreadsheet’

And thanks, really chuffed with this one, wanted an Si in this colour (or Monaco) since 2019 :thumbsup:

EDIT - only 63 in Nachtblau and one of only 5 with Pearl grey Oregon leather in this colour… that’ll do :D

I've had a Monaco coupe and its a stunning shade of blue, so with the purple tang of Midnight I can imagine the results :thumbsup:
I think Midnight Blue is one of those individual M colours that made its way over to the Si's towards the end of production. Happy to be proven wrong!
Sounds like a cracking example (save dubious M badges) and looking forward to seeing decent photos of her.

So assuming you have beige Oregon leather and brushed alu interior (and I think I spy auto), then yours is just 1 of 2 in the UK for that spec.
