Newbie looking at the E89

[Smash]

Are those wheels 20", as the tyre profile looks about a "10"?
Not seen a 23 with that colour combo, especially the black roof. It could be quite rare

Just noticed. You've bought the car on the forum banner :lol: :lol:

Drat I totally forgot to look at the rims / tyre size, I knew I’d forget something. I really like the colour combo red and black I’m sure it’s gonna be a marmite car but it’s a plus for me.

look like 6 series wheels perhaps? tyres look very low profile so could be a tad firm on msport suspension but easily changed further down the line if needs be.. combo looks great though, i do like the black roof and with cream interior its working well

I’ll see how they’ll go for now, quite like the look of the rims but hope they won’t be too firm, they felt ok on the drive. Thanks for the comments, can’t wait to get the car on the drive.

So pleased to see you finally found one after a rather bumpy search.

Loving the red/cream combo, and the black roof is pretty distinctive.

When it's ready make sure you drive home the long way!

Most excellent ! Congrats'

Congrats on finally finding “the one”. I also like the red with black roof combo, mine also has a black roof… but then again it’s all black

Aye, and another similarity is it took you a bl00dy while to find yours too

Very true matey, in my defence dealerships were closed and we were all confined to barracks for months on end, pretty difficult shopping conditions they were. Not to mention nearly all the 30i’s in the country seemed to be self isolating
