Afternoon all, (further edit - after viewing a few cars and further consideration)

My Mrs is looking for an N20 or 3.0 N52 powered E89 manual or auto she has a very realistic budget for a late car :thumbsup:

Must be HPI clear

Must haves are;

Heated seats
IDRIVE
PDC

Colours; Mineral grey / (Mineral or alpine) white / Estoril Blue / Valencia / Atacama Yellow

Ideally 60k miles or below - would consider above 60k, especially for N52 but needs to have a comprehensive service history
 
Including custard and VO rust? :lol:

Nice to hear she is going to enjoy a nice car though :thumbsup:

Afternoon all,

My Mrs is looking for a two seater fun car to use as a daily driver and the E89 is a definite option.

It needs to be an Auto with heated seats, and I’m ruling out the 35i as reliability is important.

She would consider a 23i but it would need to be exceptional, so ideally it’s a 30i or an N20 engined car.

Easier to say which colours are a no go; Black, both silvers.

Ideally 60k miles or below, but not a deal breaker - budget depends on car.
I am sure Pondy's Estoril blue E89 will be for sale shortly!

I think it’s a manual though… :tumbleweed:

Well, the yellow ones rarely come up anyway and she doesn’t mind the brown/come orange :?

She likes; the Greys, Melbourne Red, DSB but not with a black interior, both whites with any coloured interior except brown

she doesn’t mind normal silver (not the Champaign one) but not with black interior.

I think that covers it :tumbleweed:

It is, yes. Also she would need to be a strong swimmer, or at least be proficient in snorkelling.

Hope you find a good one Martin! There does seem to be quite a few autos for sale at present :thumbsup:
 
I'm considering selling my much loved E89 Z4 in the near future (Waiting for some nice weather to take some decent pictures!)

20i M Sport but remapped to 28i specification (270-280bhp).

Auto in Melbourne Red with a black interior and brand new black MAK (Italy) alloy wheels and tyres.
They 18" with NRFs which have improved the ride immeasurably!

I-Drive screen
Heated Seats
Parking Sensors (Front & Rear)
60K Miles, fully stamped service history (Early main dealer, then independent BMW specialist)
New battery.
Rear brake discs and pads (Brembo) replaced 1K Miles ago.

We have a grandson on the way and I'm told I have to get 'a proper car' !

Open to reasonable offers from a knowledgeable buyer.

Thanks Craig, we’ve been to look at a red one and a black one now and she’s ruled both the colours out… apologies.

Sorry to quote you a second time, and feel free to respond in PM if you prefer, but opening post updated to reflect potential change in position on Melbourne Red

Honestly, once she’s seen a VO with the Pure Traction interior there’ll be no going back.

Yep, she liked my previous VO… mine had a contrasting black roof from the factory, but I prefer the car all in orange :thumbsup:

Some nice pictures, better ones to follow once the weather improves!
 
This is proving harder than first anticipated… still looking, not much new coming to market.

3.0 N52 is back on the cards, as is yellow.

IDRIVE / heated seats and PDC are still an absolute must.
 
No longer searching, picking up a car for her tomorrow.

Doesn’t meet all criteria, but when a one owner, low mileage, garaged from new car comes up at very appealing price… you have to go an have a look :thumbsup:

You can't leave us all curious, what's the spec of this car? :D

Is that the white 23i from Newton Abbot ?
