**NOW SOLD**
The time has come for me to sell my pride and joy, but I need to replace it with something slightly more practical.
Ive owned this car since 2013 and have loved every minute driving it. They have great power and the economy (36mpg) can actually be pretty good on long journeys. Not entirely sure my next car will come close to the fun.
The car is completely standard apart from the black kidney grills I have added replacing the original silver ones. (I still have the originals to be sold with the car)
In my ownership the car has been serviced at Gilberts in Ealing which are a fantastic independent BMW garage.
The car has had new brake pads and new vented disks on all 4 wheels along with new tyre pressure monitors fitted last year. It has also had 4 new Vredstein tyres in may last year which has changed the ride dramatically. It is now smoother and more predictable than the original run flats and I only wish I had done this sooner. The tyres still have a huge amount of wear left on them and are like new still as the car has not been used very often. (We mainly use motorbikes to get around so the car is really only used on longer journeys)
The air conditioning was re-gassed and sterilized last year so works perfectly in the recent hot weather.
The engine is very clean and honest for a car of this age and wants for nothing as it has been a pleasure to own.
The next service is an oil service which is due in 3675 miles. I However change the oil in my cars at half intervals also. So the oil and filter was changed when the oil service indicator showed 7000 miles. At this time the Spark plugs were also changed.
