Time's finally come to sell my E86 Coupe as I'm just not getting any use out of it. Happy to answer any questions, won't be so happy to see it go.

2007. 66k miles. FSH from BMW and Indie BMW Specialists. 2 previous owners. Aircon. Cruise control. Aux-in. 2x keys. Manual 'Sport' version. 18 inch alloys, sport seats, M-Sport steering wheel and sportier suspension. Will come with 13 months MOT.

Waterpump and rear springs have both been done recently with receipts to prove. Waterpump at 53k miles from BMW Main Dealer. Rear springs at 60k miles from specialist. All discs and pads were done at 57k miles. Michelin Pilotsport 4 tyres all round with good tread on.

The car is in very good condition. The paintwork is good for its 66k miles, but it has been used and there is the odd mark and stone chip up front. Interior likewise as the pictures suggest. Mechanically it's spot-on and has never put a foot wrong.

Car is located in Bournemouth.

£12,500ono

Hey, it's Silver Grey I believe, rather than the slightly darker Stratos. It was overcast when I took the pics which makes it show a little darker. Here's a couple taken in sunlight...

Looks great!

Would it be possible to confirm the exact name of the colour? Sorry to be a pest! I’m up in Aberdeen so a fair trip to come have a look in person!

I’m aware of the dark grey “stratus grey” colour as this is what I’m after.

Is this the ‘titanium silver’?

Any more photos would be much appreciated.

Cheers!

No worries man, happy to answer questions. So the colour name is actually "Silver Grey" which is basically in between "Titanium Silver" and "Stratus Grey"...

Titanium Silver

+1 for Silver grey, a beautiful colour in the sunshine and really suits the coupe. I'm biased having sold my '06 silver-grey coupe yesterday.

Good luck with the sale OP, looks like a very well cared for example :thumbsup:
 
Great Car. Exactly what I was after last year. I’m in Perthshire and ended up going way down south for my silver grey Coupe. Good luck with the sale, I wouldn’t hesitate on this one. F6916880-4EA1-441B-907B-2346E378F114.jpeg
 
Just edited to add that the car will come with 13 months MOT. Due to run out on 5th October 2021, getting it booked in next week, so will run until 5th October 2022.
 
Hi Josh

The car looks lovely. Don't suppose you have any pics (or could provide some) of the chips/marks? Also, any face-on views of the dashboard, centre console and steering wheel? Being a pretty low mileage car I expect there is very little wear to the seats either? Also, on the seats - you don't mention it so I am assuming intentionally - but they're the M seats, just not heated? Thanks!
 
Silver grey is an awesome colour for the e85/6..so many comments from people on the colour when I had my e85 and its still my favourite colour of any car Ive owned, it polishes up beautifully and glows when freshly detailed :)

Hey, I don't have the pics to hand but will look to get them. Do you wanna PM me and I can WhatsApp over or email?

And yeah they're the sport seats, non heated. As opposed to the standard seats which don't have as much side and shoulder bolstering.
 
Thanks - probably be better served posting them in here though? Would certainly help if others had similar questions. Engine bay would be a good one to do as well :D

Yep, just the stuff I've got to hand is video so easier to send on Whatsapp. Will look into getting some extra pics and adding here though if you'd rather.

So got a few extra pics of the stone chips and bolster. Just to say, these are the car's absolute worst bits for sure, on the whole it really is an incredibly tidy example.

Stone chips on bonnet... (The 50p was obviously placed and removed VERY carefully, the paint's been looked after in my ownership).
