Would have pulled more money selling on the 'parts' and offloading the car standard....can be harder to sell on a tuned car, still a very nice example.

Correct sir!

All the mods, one careful owner but missing the little metal plaque on the ashtray. Now the car must be worthless?!

Loving the stance on that car. I think KW V3 is back on my shopping list after exhaust is done!

You'd be surprised how many don't have the plaque. Just need to look at Autotrader ads.

Thanks for all the comments lads, its was my car & loved it to bits but the Nissan GTR is an itch I need to scratch & can't afford both so unfortunatley my 1M has got to go.

The company that handled the sale are a superb company to deal with & will hopefully be doing me a nice deal a GTR in the not too distant future.

The plaque never came on the car & when I asked my local BMW dealer about it, they said they would chase it up & get back to me but never did.

You have to order it through BMW UK, it's got a part number.

I've had the same problem,my selling dealer just started to ignore my requests for one(pointed it out when i picked up the car)so wrote to bmw customer service and they are now looking into it. Tried to order one at my nearest dealer but they said they couldn't!

Who ever buys the car will be getting a excellent car & I just hope the GTR takes my mind off it or I will be tracking down the next owner & trying to buy it back.

Its my first BMW & definatley will not be my last.

Loads more pics at the website http://www.automotivedreams.co.uk/us...893063/gallery

Nice example mate! Not a bad step up either.

First dibs on the seats if you ever decide to part out!

Did you get it detailed at Valet Magic in Camberley?

Car was never detailed at Valet Magic, just went down there to get the Paint Protection Film fitted.

Car was always looked after by Russ @ Midlands Car Care.

Mate you should have sold off most of the additional parts and put back to standard, most if not all would have went in quick time and you could have made some of you money back where you usually lose out on when selling the car with......

I emailed my dealer with the part number I found this forum. They ordered for free and fitted it myself. Just a sticky tape back so comes off easy.

Failing that quick email to BMW CS. They are quite keen to help if you don't mention "ODB" and "theft". They sorted my floor mats after I'd given up with my dealer.

I like your carbon wing and splitter btw!
