Ooh that's nice. How much did it set you back? Have you had anything like it before?

Enjoy

Hi Ray

Thanks. Yes had plenty of nice cars over the years
Ranging from e30 325i sport/e46 M3 back a few years Cosworths Xrs etc etc.
Been sensible for the Past 3/4 years but craved a toy.
Found this in a local BMW dealer and got a good deal from an old school friend (Sales Manager) so had to have it.
Currently run a F10 535d msport and E70 X5 m sport.

Love the BMW marque.

Ah I see, you've been quite lucky over the years then!

How does this compare to the older BMW's you've owned? For example, I recently sold an old faithful Mk. 1 Skoda Octavia VRS, and bought a nearly new Mk. 3 VRS.

There was an obvious DNA lineage in the facelift Mk. 1.5 as they called it, and the Mk. 2 - however this Mk. 3 is a completely different car in every way, bears no resemblance at all to the older models. Obviously it's engineered on the new VAG MQB platform, but it left me a bit cold to start with - a completely different car from what I was expecting it to be really. I had trouble bonding with it and even hankered after having my old Mk. 1 back for a while!

Yes I have been fortunate to own many cars.
Early days however very responsive capable car I would say.
Roll on next summer.

Davie3door: That is a great looking car. You certainly seem to embrace the BMW marque!

Judging by your username you obviously had a 3dr Cossie at some point.

After 4 Cossies I changed to an M3 about 16 years ago and never looked back

Enjoy your M3

Very nice, that does look a cracking example, well done

Sold my Space Grey example back in September to help fund a house renovation and I do miss it, they drive so well.

Enjoy it matey...

Looks lovely that!

There are a few good groups on Facebook if you're on there. 'BMW M3 e9X V8 owners club' being a particularly good one.
