I would take the Msport Badge off an Msport too.

Hah! I bought my M135i new and insisted that BMW remove the Ms off the side as well as the M135i from the back. I got the impression that they were thinking "Really? Those tiny badges off the side?" When I picked the car up, the salesman said something like, "I wasn't sure about removing the M badges off the side, but you're right it looks great." Me instantly in smug mode

I went to see the car that had 86k miles on it with no intention of buying but to serve as a bench mark with looking at lower millage cars and I bought it.

I saw it on Saturday and put the offer in yesterday and will pick it up next weekend after the garage has sorted a few things.

Great news, and welcome to Coupe ownership.

Ruby Black does look stunning in the sun. Just to forewarn you, don't be surprised if the V5 shows it as "Red" (mine did)!

Too right. I was just about to point you in the direction of mine, which clocked up its 60,000th mile tonight, and you're already sorted.

It looks like you've got yourself a great little Z though. Enjoy!

Looks nice! GLWS. I am sure you won't have hold of it for long.

Cheers Mr T.

Nice to see the weather in Leeds is for rain all weekend so might have to wait for a little bit of Ruby.

That's random, wonder if the midnight black version is called something different on some log books. I will let you know what it says on mine.

Well done - now time to start the mods
Cheers dude!

I don't think I will be doing to much to it but I am open to suggestions. I need to get a good look at the suspension and see if it has been changed as wheels, tyres and suspension are the only things I really do on my cars. It will be OEM or close to for these. Gone are the days when I am going to be sitting there like a sh1ting dog because I had the wise idea to polybush everything.

In the future I would like perhaps a better sounding induction and exhaust but it really needs to be a bit louder/exciting than standard- nothing like a decat or anything. I don't want to stink the place out or draw any unwanted attention to me. These two are want's rather than needs if that makes sense.

I had de-badge as 1st on the list but going back over pictures that appears to be an option that the original owner had ticked- I notice BMW don't discount the price of the car for not putting badges on

Hi, put “sound generator” into the search bar

Nice one Rob appreciated, I thought for a moment you were having a laugh

Be interesting to see the differences. Found a YouTube video on how to do it and it's straightforward.
