drove 52 miles to view it and it's lovely. 3.0 manual.
was going to get a vx220 but wanted some degree of comfort so decided on this. always loved them and it sounds fantastic.
the guy has done a popular mod which involves removing some foam so the engine sounds much better in the cabin. he also put the Z4M front bumper and multi function steering wheel on, and powdercoated the alloys satin black.
pretty much perfect condition aswell, just needs and the roof cleaning thoroughly, and a small part of the drivers seat bolster has worn, but i'm sure rich h can fix those?

it was this or an engagement ring and holiday.
this won the in crowd can sod off with their 'under the thumb' comments.
i'm also undecided on the black wheels, but this was quite a lot cheaper than others i've looked at and knocked him down £350 so can always get them done silver/grey if i wanted.

I actually like the black wheels with black interior, the car just needs lowering.

Looks good.
I don't know of its just me but I cant bear Matt black wheels. Just looks like its been done on he driveway at home. Shiny black or back to standard colour will sort the wheels.

Please dont ben rage at me but the 3rd pic with the sun glasses made me giggle, bmw driver stereotype (I know it's the for sale pics and not your glasses) 
Awesome looking car, the design has aged well and 9 years on the car looks in mint condition.

Was going to suggest some CSL wheels as well but I think they look a bit crap on the other car posted.
Looks like a good purchase Ben

Ps sun cream, are you bald?

the csl rims look great in the second pic. for now i will just enjoy driving it and maybe in future look into some mod's for it.
