    The one I’ve enquired about is 2009 - but I’m only working off the advert so I’ll double check. 2010 manual e92 was listed as 172 & the 2009 e93 listed as 187 - both coming €750 for tax - I think if I could ever stomach higher tax it’d have to be for something more special like m3/5/6 but she’s kill me for that

    I sold that new, it was a BMW Ireland car that they never registered. The spec is incredibly high but it wasnt a Sport model, it was a dressed up SE. The buyer was a total gent but that was a decade ago and i'd worry about the history on it........

    I recognise the reg of that car. It’s lived out near me for a long time. Always appeared to be well looked after.

    No - after looking at some rough cars I got disillusioned and went the opposite - I know the MCS, it's not perfect but I like it so now have a pile of stuff staring at me waiting to be fitted - Koni FSDs, Eibachs, R56S calipers, brembo discs/pads - and then waiting on intercooler, injectors and cam.

    The E90 went up but very little interest from genuine buyers (probably because I over priced) - I don't want to give it away so I took it down for a while until I figure out what's next - debating if we stay with fossil fuel or go PCP on hybrid or full electric.
