I see. So this is yours now? How does it compare to the M235i?
Its obviously much bigger and heavier than the M235i so not as chuckable, but then its a GT so not really that surprising. The engine is brilliant, even thou it doesn't have the rev range of the petrol it more than makes up for it by having so much torque and it still revs quite happily, having 300+ BHP doesn't exactly hurt its performance.
The ride on this is better than the M235i with adaptive suspension and none run flat tyres, which given its on passive and 20" run flats is quite surprising.
The seats are fantastically comfy, even thou they are the sport seats and not the comfort option ones. They don't have the side bolster adjustment that the M235i did but to be honest I'm not missing it.
The interior is a really nice place to be, the multifunction dash and HUD are great and the Harmon kardon system in this makes the 2's sound a bit rubbish to be honest.
You can tell this is a car from much much further up the range and given what it is I'm paying not a massive amount more for it. So all in all I'm happy, just need it to be detailed and protected on Wednesday...

Front looks.... odd
I thought that. Looks like an FTO or something.
What is it? A BMW M(?).
The front of the BMW on page 873 (S2 DXD) looks funny too - I'm sure they're both great cars but dat front.

This give a better impression of the front? Thats the one I borrowed rather than mine.
Its a 640d M Sport Coupe

You wrote 'why'. This was hardly a 'polite question'. If you don't like my car I couldn't care less
.
4K+ Would be a perfect one which is very clean and has decent history from import. Me personally I would pay between 3500-4k. Those wheels need changing tho
