Hi

Guys thoughts please, is it feasible purchase with all the AC Schnitzer bits?

Horses for courses, if you like them, that's all that matters. Looks like a well looked after car, the interior colour scheme isn't what I'd choose, nor the quad exhausts. How much are they asking?

They’re asking £ 23k done 15000 miles 1 owner, it’s at a Lexus dealer who took in p/x, I was thinking how would I insure this if I went through with it? Dealer said it will have a 12 month auto protect warranty which has bad reviews online especially with a car like this putting a claim in could see it being chucked out with all the bits on.
How much you guys think it’s worth and would I get a BMW WARRANTY?

Here’s some spec:
20” Schnitzer alloy wheels
- Carbon wing mirror covers
- Carbon splitter
- Schnitzer exhaust (no performance enhancements with this, it is purely cosmetic)
- Schnitzer ECU upgrade taking power output from 320 BHP to 360 BHP (this is a hardware ‘piggyback’ modification not a ‘re-map’, the original ECU is still in the engine bay and can be swapped back to original configuration by a BMW main dealer in around an hour (cost unsure)

It's a proper bmw individual, minus the AC Schintzer kit not to my preference (it can surely be removed :-)). This very individual interior colour scheme was used for the GC's global launch back in 2011, beautifully matched with satin bronze exterior paint. I must admit the interior is impeccable, in line with the the car's low mileage.

Anything to watch out for on the 640i engine at 15000 miles also What am I expecting on mpg, Is it double than 640d? Any 640i drivers here I know they’re a rare breed..

https://hpivaluations.com/report/view/VA20485659-DY64HXK HPI has it at 21440 forecourt price, but that's without the Schnitzer kit, so pretty well priced.

I had a 640i coupe; loved it and would have another in an instant. Utterly reliable and no mechanical issues whatsoever as I took it from 16k-35k in just over 2 years.

Not sure i'm on board with that one though; exterior colour is a nice chnage from the normal black, white or post-box red that you usually see; but that interior combo is rank imo. I loved the interior of my 6 but those colours clash too much; not a huge fan of Schnitzer styling either.

Schnitzer tat doesn't add a bean to the value - in my eyes it devalues a nice BMW. The colour combo is a bit 2001 Rover 75 tbh.

I have a 640d gran coupe Lci. The interior wouldn’t be to my taste but it does look in good condition. Didn’t watch the whole video, does it have upgraded sound system or heads up display? My car has been faultless. Mine had a year and a half of warranty left when I bought it although nothing has gone wrong in my ownership.
