Yes I did consider it, they’re X-drive as well aren’t they - rapid. However, looks like this will be heading home now to keep the Alpina company. Partly because the Mrs will ditch her E89 and use this… but also because it’s lovely. I appreciate they’re not for you. We all like different things

Ooooh no.
Just don't complain when you can't shift your 'rare' burple because you bought the wrong colour.

What's the name of that colour......"thunder thighs"? ;)
 
Only joshing matey. I hope you and 'Mrs Martin' enjoy the car. She definitely deserves a treat! 😍

Best colour 😍 but others will say not lol. Congrats and enjoy.
 
I had a 2016 m240i from new (a while back). b58 engine, manual box, 2 door, quick & dynamic. Don't remember the model designation - but I guess it was the version before the current one.

But it felt very.... 'normal' to me.

Lacked the specialness inherent with any of the M cars.

Cheap (pcp deal was £250 a month - more like triple that now with interest rates etc), competent, quick, but life is too short.
 
Thanks all.

Have to be honest, having done quite well out of old Z4’s for years I did have a wobble dropping a significant wedge on a Z4 knowing it’s guaranteed to lose me money.

Anyway, done now, need to embrace it and enjoy it - collect Saturday. It’s almost new car clean.

One owner, 7400 miles, garaged from new, Technology / comfort / visibility packs, Harmon Kardon etc.

It’s not a sports car in the way the E85/ Alpina is, but it’s still fun when pressing on and the Mrs won’t be scared to drive it. Plenty rapid, comfortable, good for touring and I’m not getting any younger.
