Estoril Blue E89

Post by Gwest44 » Wed Oct 06, 2021 10:30 am

I am trying to establish when the above colour became available on the E89 - I have all the price list pdf's I can get hold of but they only go to January 2014 when Valencia Orange became an option.

There is no reference to Estoril Blue in any of the price lists I have but I am sure I have seen cars produced prior to 2015 in this colour - any thoughts please?

Dear Comrade,

That is an absolutely amazing piece of information. That colour (Estoril Blue) is my most favoured of colours. There is an 35i presently for sale on Autotrader. It is, in my opinion way over-priced; however, it may well prove to be the case that the colour clinches the deal, perhaps were the machine to be a 35is with a cream interior I would then engage the services of an expert on this forum to negotiate for me. And yes, I do realise there is actually very little difference betwixt the 35i and the 35is, but I intend to remain on course.

An Addendum: Having just this minute re-examined the aforementioned machine, it appears to me, that the wheels have been repainted and the silver paint has been smeared over the tyres; which looks absolutely horrid :-(

With kind regards,

MAD

Oh, I know what B21 means (obviously) just wondering why you're being so coy? To put it simply, why have you opened a new account under a different user name?
