Picked it up on friday at a decent price. 82k and full bmw service history.

Wasnt my first choice in colour but they are like hens teeth so had to just go for it.

Car has pretty much all the toys that i wanted bar the front parking sensors for extra protection when she is driving.
leather, 3stage heated seats, xenons, pro stereo, pro satnav Idrive, rear parking sensors, bluetooth voice recognition, ipod/usb connectivity...

Car has been mapped but owner didnt know who by and said it was an eco map so tempted to get it done by someone known on bimmer forums.

car after a quick wash yesterday





wasnt happy with wheels..
so some more pics today






Got some black grills on order..

next on list is some carbon splitters and maybe wing mirror covers

Very nice, especially with the csl's, and yes you are right they ARE as rare as hen's teeth.

[TripleD]

Look superb, loving them wheels! Were'd ya get them from I want a set!

[DavS1]

Looks good, generally speaking any map on a diesel gives better fuel consumption

[jamier27]

Thanks guys
Got the wheels through a local wheel and tyre place, they are excellent reps. Made in taiwan not china so are better made, lighter than mv3's and high gloss silver.

[briers]

very nice, love the colour myself and nice wheels!

Just dont leave it on that wet grass for too long or it will literally dig itself into a hole.

[Martin 335d]

Looks good mate, glad you eventually got one.

The are very hard to get hold of at sensible money

Ha ha, we'll forget the fact that Taiwan is The Republic of China then...

Nice wheels though. Helped make my mind up a little.

Welcome! That's a rare find in that spec. Are the front windows tinted? Might be just the limited angle.

[Brian mc21]

Very nice. Best colour of course.

Thanks

fronts arent tinted or if they are very slightly

[doughboy]

OP She's a beaut. LMB is the best colour IMO, wish I'd gone for it TBH..

CSLs look so right on an E91. Are yours a hyper silver, they look like it with that slight black chrome sheen to them.

Just trying to get a set past the missus.....

[jamier27]

thanks

Yeah i think they are hyper silver as they do have a hint of chrome in the silver.

Your right, am tempted now, had my heart set on the 19" Twist Spokes, but they look soo good!

Could I ask how much they were?

[jamier27]

I paid £1150 with falken 265/30 +235/35's fiitted

[doughboy]

What width are they? 8.5J front and 9J rear? or 9.5J rear?

[jamier27]

8.5 and 9.5 mate

[oilnchain]

Loving these wheels, might end up going this way with my e91!

[jamier27]

Just had car detailed by my cousin yesterday and has virtually eliminated all scratches and swirls. Looks like new!

Looks superb - especially the scratch removal & engine bay.

Where is he based? Wouldn't mind having contact details for future if possible? (assuming that he does this for a living, of course - if not, ignore!)
