Looks great!
I would add: not just "summer-time use"...but also "summer-time, daytime use!". As I have spoken to the former owner of your car several times over the last year I remember him telling me that particular car had never even been out at night-time!
He wanted me to bring it here to detail it further...but the car always looked so good I was never sure what he was expecting me to do! LOL
The car was up for sale at that price quite a while ago; was debated here and many scoffed saying it wasn't worth it. It WAS! And still is! Well done and congratulations! Look after it and you'll continue to be the envy of many for a long, long time!
Question: Those chaps look they've done a very nice job indeed freshening up those seats. Do you mind me asking what they charged? I have a full genuine buffalo hide interior from an E28 M5 which although not damaged or scuffed requires re-colouring. Thanks

Ref:LeatherCare, yes it's not the 1st time I have used them, they did the red one's complete interior about 7 years ago and it still looks as fresh today.
My last trip to them cost me just over 300 quid for the two front seats.Well the passenger seat was perfect but they advised me to do them in pairs just in case.He got the colour just perfect as I was worried it might clash with the center consol.He would prefer to do the whole interior to avoid any slight colour mismatch,or at least take another trim with you as well as the seats so he can get the colour spot on.
TBH I would not trust anybody else with my leather interior even though there are quite a few locals who can "tackle" the job.I would rather do a 520 miles round trip and get them done properly!(set off at 5 am got to Warrington by 9,handed the seats over to them then spent the day in Manchester,and seats were ready for me at 3.30pm to pick up,then I was back in Plymouth by 7pm).Job Done.Highly recommended.(and no he didn't slip me a lady Godiva for saying that).

You are the steward of one of BMWs finest there Old Boy! 
Enjoy it, and look after it.
How about keeping the red one as a daily classic?
The white one should really be for summer use only.
It WILL be used mainly in dry weather.There will be a prospect of a divorce if the two garages were monopolised by yours truly.I need to fix the rust on the back wings on the red one before I flog it.I am in the process of carpeting the garage at the mo to stop any damp coming through the floors, and the white one will be living in its own ventilated cocoon (air chamber) soon.Extreme and obssessive Yes, but I intend to protect my new investment.

Absolutley stunning!
I need to get the interior done on my E28, do these guys in warrington repair scuffs and scratches too?
My whole interior needs doing properly to bring back to showroom condition.

They will do a full retrim if you wish.Give them a call and see.I need to get the interior done on my E28, do these guys in warrington repair scuffs and scratches too?

Excellent, I'll give them a shout.
