Hi all,
After lurking for a few months I've finally registered....
Picked up this late 2012 E89 M Sport 28i Auto with just 15,000 miles on it back in October 15 as it was such a great deal, parked it in the garage until February 2016 when my lease car went back and have been using it daily ever since and put 2000 miles on her in March alone.
After years of family "wagons" it's nice to have something sporty although I'm still not sure if I can live with it every day...I hope so!
Couple of pics attached, usual white on black wheels love/hate comments expected
Usual comments;
1/ It's super hard ride.....M Sport spec, 19's and Bridgestone RF's :thumbsdown:
2/ 2.0 Turbo 245PS on 8 speed auto
3/ Rubbish stereo (standard spec)
4/ Still perfecting the entry and exit in a dignified way
5/ Sport button livens up the exhaust sound but makes the ride even harder on poor Cambridgeshire UK roads
It is putting a huge smile on my face when I drive it, which was always the original intention.....
1st upgrade was to LED the angel eyes
then a week's worth of detailing including a full machine polish and sealant application.
I've just finished the engine bay clean, so may get some pics up next of that....
Catch up soon.....
Steve
