Claims to be only 6 saloons sold in UK....i really don't think so...

Automatic iX's are bloody rare because they were crap and due to the type of conditions they were built for (snow and stuff) a manual is the better option. I still doubt there were only six though.

Just remembered friend of mine has 2 -he is probably one of the longest ownership of iX in UK i guess about 15 yrs(i wonder if there are any original 1 owners out there?)
Usually it is rare to see both but got lucky on Street view
Will check if auto or manual

If I wasnt already getting a new car that is some serious shed worth having! mmmm

a BMW moving under its own steam in an inch of Snow would confuse people in a most satisfying manner.

I didn't remember having any problems this winter in my std E34 525i SE Auto on metrics.

Probably cos it didn't really snow much.

Reserve not met.

My £500 wasn't enough.
