E89 35i/35is
Much like the last time I circled back to getting into a Z4 I have started out looking for an E86 but worked my way to thinking an E89 is likely the way to go. Having had a 30i and a 35is previously I think the turbo is the way to go so am now looking for a 35i or 35is. Importantly I get anxious around expensive fixes so will be looking to run a BMW warranty so am after one with sub 60k miles and not modified.
So what I am interested in is;
- 35i/35is
- M Sport
- FSH
- preferably sub 60k miles (not essential), not modified (engine wise)
- Prefer black, grey or silver paintwork
- Prefer red or black leather
- Preferred options;
- Heated, electric seats
- Decent sound system
- Parking sensors
- iDrive
- 19 inch alloys
In an ideal world I’d like to spend less than £15k but appreciate the market seems inflated, so have some flexibility.
Thanks in advance!

I’m seriously contemplating a G29 Z4 so there is a chance I may sell mine when I find the right one. I’ll send you a PM and let me know what you think. Might not be quite what you want but you never know…
BMW E89 3.5i M Sport manual, loving it….
Audi S5 Cab, Great car but not special enough….
BMW E89 3.5i DCT, Havana Brown, should never have sold it…..

Interested to know what BMW quote for warranty on a 10 year old (ish) N54 engine'd car with circa 50k miles. I am willing to bet it ain't cheap?
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.
F31 320i. Good car.

My warranty was either £457 for year with £250 excess or £650 per year with £100 excess . I’ve gone for the £650 one. My car is a 2013 with 39k on the clock. I think the BMW warranty is a bargain and I have already used it once with no questions asked.

I would agree knowing how fragile the N54 is above about 1,000 miles.

I must have been lucky with my N54... nearly 2 years and 15k miles... one rocker cover gasket (which probably wasn't needed anyway) and a couple of coils after remapping it. Not sure what all the fuss is about

Feels like good value to me, for the price of a family takeaway each month you can be worry free! Different strokes for different folks though!
