2009 E91 BMW 335i M-Sport Touring
Headline:
2009 BMW 335i M-Sport Touring (LCI) 370bhp & 390 lb torque via Evolve-R switchable map 93k miles Full BMW / Specialist history Auto Space Grey Rotbraun Dakota leather interior Heated seats Adaptive Xenon Headlights Pro CIC iDrive with 3D maps Cruise control N54 twin turbo Non-sunroof model Bluetooth phone prep 19” 359 wheels Goodyear Eagle F1’s all round (brand new rears) Hunter alignment just carried out 2 new rear shocks New front suspension arms Inspection 2 recently carried out New Bosch S5 battery All original manuals and documentation and a large folder of all previous work Recent MOT (August) with no advisories 2 keys Overview: Given there was no BMW M3 estate this was the closest I could get and I’ve loved every moment of owning it. Only selling as I have now purchased a c63 estate. The first year of my ownership it had a comprehensive BMW warranty under which some major work was carried out (oil leaks rectified). In my 2+ years of ownership I have had no major issues with the car. I have never skimped on any expense and it has always been maintained by Jim @Munich Power, I would never take my BMW’s to anyone else. Prior to myself it was also owned by an enthusiast and was maintained by TWG. It has recently had an inspection 2 carried out and the brake fluid was changed just this week along with a new Bosch S5 battery fitted and coded. 2 new Goodyear Eagle F1 tyres were fitted to the rears last month and Hunter four-wheel alignment was carried out. This car really wants for nothing. The colour combination was one of the key reasons for going for this car. In my opinion Space grey is the best colour for the touring and the interior in rare Rotbraun is a great contrast as opposed to boring black. The interior is in fantastic condition with no rips or bolster wear, it still has the original mats that are in great condition. The wheels are in good condition (though they do have a few curb marks here and there as would be expected with a daily driver) and are shod with Eagle F1’s all round. The car also has a few choice Modifications. It has a switchable Evolve-R map (standard, stage 1 370bhp and stage 2 available), I keep it on stage 1 as it is more than enough power and torque and puts no strain on the engine. Brembo performance front & rear discs and pads. Sitting on lower spring perches so has a more purposeful stance but maintains the comfort of the standard suspension. Fitted with M3 Competition replica wheels that were purchase from CM wheels. These were only fitted recently, it had AG 359’s that developed cracks, rather than repair I purchased a new set (not worth taking the chance on repairing cracks when this is used to transport my kids around). It also has black performance grilles and has been de-badged (I like my sleepers). Modifications: 19” staggered M3 Competition replica wheels Evolve-R switchable map RB PCV Valve Black performance grilles White angel eye bulbs (same as OEM on the later 2010+ model cars) Negatives: Stonechips and a few small scuffs commensurate with age Wheels have some slight curbing Wheel centre badges are a bit faded (will get new ones if I get a chance) Front bumper has slight lacquer peel and is slightly scuffed, I will get this resprayed ahead of sale £12,995 Last edited by Galactus; 08-30-2020 at 04:32 PM.. |

That is a bloody nice example!
Love the wheels, think they really suite it. Got me thinking about getting a set for mine now! Good luck with the sale. |

Cheers Nick, yeah I think they set off the shape really well, plus given the fact that they are off the e9X M3 Comp pack they give an OEM+ look to an M-Sport.
Forgot to mention this car sold a couple of days ago, sad times |

What was the exact brand and size of the wheels and what size tyres were you running? Also were you running the stock msport suspension? I'm looking at this style wheel but all the different options on sizes is a bit confusing! |

No wonder it looks so familiar. I'm down in Thornton Heath and I've seen this out on my travels before. Best of luck with the sale, what a lovely example.

Tyres - Fronts I really can't remember, but the rears I bought a few weeks ago and were Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 265/30/19. Standard M-Sport suspension on lower spring perches. I do miss this car... well not that much as the C63 estate that replaced it is unreal! |
