HI GUYS AND GIRLS,

IT PAINS ME TO BE DOING THIS BUT UP FOR SALE IS MY 335i.

BEING AN ENTUSIAST I HAVE OWNED MANY CARS (MOSTLY) BMW’S AND THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST I’VE HAD. SEEMLESS POWER DELIVERED FROM THE BOTTOM RIGHT THROUGH TO THE RED LINE. NO LAG AND IT REALLY DOES FEEL LIKE A NATUARALLY ASPIRATED ENGINE.

I’M SELLING THE CAR AS I USED TO HAVE A FUEL CARD AND COMMUTE TO WORK. I HAVE NOW CHANGED JOBS AND TAKE THE TRAIN. I HAVE A RUN AROUND SO THE 335 HAS SAT DOING NOT VERY MUCH FOR THE LAST 2 MONTH OR SO.

TO PREP FOR SALE I HAVE HAD THE FOLLOWING WORK DONE

• MOT’D FOR A YEAR. THE PHOTO SHOWS ONLY ONE ADVISORY WHICH WAS LOW BRAKE PADS, WHICH HAVE BEEN DONE
• FULL DIAGNOSTIC CHECK JUST FOR PIECE OF MIND. NO FAULT CODES
• FULL FRONT END RESPRAY. NOT A STONE CHIP IN SITE
• SLIGHT TOUCH UP TO A COUPLE OF WHEELS AT THE VERY EDGE AS EVEN A SMALL SILVER MARK SHOWS UP AGAINST THE MATTE/SATIN
• FULL VALET AND POLISH
• WHEELS ALL RE-BALANCED TO ENSURE EVERYTHING IS RUNNING TRUE

SO, THE CAR IS NOW OFF THE ROAD AND AWAITING ITS NEW HOME. THE CAR SPECIFICATION IS AS FOLLLOWS:

• MANUAL – VERY RARE. TRUST ME, YOU WANT THIS CAR IN MANUAL
• 2007 – FIRST REGISTERED 16/03/2007
• 2 PREVIOUS OWNERS BEFORE ME
• SPACE GREY – LOOKS GUNMETAL
• 3.0 ENGINE TWIN TURBO
• 87,000 MILES
• UNMOLESTED ENGINE
• 19” MATTE/SATIN STAGGERED ATOMIC CS Y ALLOYS WRAPPED IN FALKEN FK453.
• THE WHEELS WERE SUPPLIED AND FITTED BY MARK AT BMAUTOSPORT. 8.5” ET38 ON THE FRONT AND 9.5” ET 33 ON THE REARS. THIS IS THE MOST AGGRESSIVE STANCE YOU CAN GET. ANYONE INTO THEIR BMW’S KNOWS THAT MARK IS THE MAN WHEN IT COMES TO ALLOYS AND FITMENT ETC
• FULL SERVICE HISTORY – ONBOARD COMPUTER SHOWS NEXT SERVICE NOT FOR 16000 MILES AND IS JUST AN OIL AND FUILTER CHANGE
• BODY WORK WISE THE CAR IS PRIME. AS MENTIONED ABOVE I’VE JUST HAD THE ENTIRE FRONT BUMPER REPSRAYED AS THAT WAS THE ONLY AREA THAT HAD ANY CHIPS / MARKS. THE SIDE CLOSE UP PHOTOS SHOW A NICE SHINE WITH NO DENTS RIPPLES ETC
• MATTE BLACK GRILLE FITTED TO COMPLIMENT THE BLACK WHEELS
• INTERIOR IS A LIGHT SPACE GRAY. COMPLIMENTS THE OUTSIDE.
• FULLY ELECTRIC AND ADJUSTABLE SEATS INCLUDING THE SIDEBOLSTERS
• THERE IS SOME WEAR TO THE PLASTIC CONSOLE IN THE REAR. PLEASE SEE PHOTO.
• THE SEATS ARE IN GREAT CONDITION. WITH NO TEARS OR RIPS ETC ROUND THE BOLSTER AREA.

SO………..ALL IN, A VERY NICE, UNMOLESTED EXAMPLE OF A GREAT MANUAL 335I.

IT DRIVES SMOOTH, WITH A SLICK CHANGE IN EVERY GEAR. NO CLUTCH PROBLEMS OR SLIPPAGE AND NO UNIDENTIFIED KNOCKS, BANGS OR RATTLES.

PLEASE DO COME AND VIEW THE CAR FOR YOURSELF AND HAVE A CUPPA. ANY INDEPENDENT INSPECTION IS WELCOME.

PLEASE PM ME, COMMENT OR EMAIL ME AT ALEXWELLS5@HOTMAIL.COM OR CALL 07980876097. THE CAR IS BASED IN KENT.

THANKS FOR LOOKING. I HOPE YOU LIKE IT!

Wheels And Tyres Were Purchased In May 2014 And Have Covered About 3000k, So Loads Of Life Left

Yes I Have Both Keys

Car Is Taxed Until Jan 2015

Car Is Mot'd Until August 2015 And Teh Only Advisory Was Low Front Brake Pads, Which I Had Changed Anyway.

The Next Service Is Not Due Until Oct 2016 Or 16,000 (according To The Computer)

There's A Bit Of Wear On Teh Plastic Removable Portion Of The The Steering Wheel. Also A Bit On The Gear Know (obviously) But Body Work Wise Etc It's Very Good For A 2007 Plate Car. Especially After Having The Front Bumper Resprayed. It Was Removed And Done Properly, As Apposed To Being Taped Up And 'blown' Over On The Cheap.

Viewings Are Very Welcome And Highly Recommended. I'm Working From Home At The Moment So Am Available Most Days.

Yes, There Is A Private Plate On At The Mo. It's Not Included In Teh Sale And Is In Teh Process Of Being Removed.

Money Wise Im Open To A Conversation. If You're Looking For One Of These You'll Know Roughly What It's Worth. Manuals Are In High Demand Also. I Would Really Like This Car To Go To A Fellow Enthusiast Who Will Look After Her In Such A Manner That I Have. I've Grown Quite Attached To The Old Girl

Any Other Questions Please Do Ask

[Lazza]

Almost Forgot. The Paint Has Flaked A Bit Inside On The Centre Console/storage 'bit' Between The Rear Seats.

I'll Put A Pic Up.

Unsure. Would like to chat with some like minded folk. You interested?

[Lazza]

No interest at all?? I know manuals are sought after so was hoping for a bit more activity than this. Not even any comments to pick holes in my advert!

i see it's insurance that's your problem.

What does your mother do as a profession?? mine is a nurse. So I always put her on as a named driver. Cuts my premium in half, literally. Think I pay about £400 a year

How old are you. How many quals. The price is similar to the SE you commented on, but mine's newer and is obviously a an M-Sport

[Lazza]

C'mon guys. I thought I'd get a bt more interest here.

Is there something wring with my Advert. All comment and constructive criticism appreciated

[Sparky68]

A price that you are willing to accept will help.

I can't decide. It's hard to work out as when you go on auto trader etc you it's full of dreamers who put their car up for silly money.

I'd like around £10,000 for it

[Sparky68]

Now you have a starting point where serious buyers can judge what they can afford. Cracking looking car so should sell.

Thanks. I think it's lovely looking and would generate a lot of interest. I haven't touched the engine or suspension so thought it would be a good starting point for someone into going the full 9 yards. Or alternatively, a solid car for someone who want's it how it is with nice subtle mods. Turns heads everywhere, but not in an overstated way.

[Lazza]

BUMP!!!!

Don't seem to be getting much interest here!

The problem trying to sell a BMW on a BMW forum is that nearly everyone already owns a BMW.

That's kind of the point though isn't it. When they decide they want to change, they are likely to know what they want and look on the forum. The majority on here are enthusiasts and look after their cars. Also if I didn't have a BMW but decided I wanted one, I would look on BMW forums. It is up for sale on Pistonheads too. But I do see what you mean
