FS: E87 130i MSport - LeMans
Hi,
Thinking of selling our 130i and getting something a bit more "family orientated". Picture shows the car with ACS Type III alloys which we have now sold. Spec: November 2005 (55) E87 5 Door 130i MSport LeMans Blue Black Dakota Leather 18" 5 Spoke MSport Alloys - 5mm tread all round Goodyear RFT's Professional CD Bluetooth Aux Audio Input Heated Front Seats Sun Protection Glass Tax/MOT/BMW Warranty till May09. OBC shows 6000miles till next service due. Likely to just trade it in and take the hit, but if you know someone who's after one please let me know. Cheers Paul |

If it was a Touring then it would be ideal
X3 3.0d Auto is the favorite at the moment, unless a VW R50 comes in under £20k (not likely!) |

My wife has to drive it, so a Toerag or Cayenne it just to big in all seriousness.
X3, Freelander2, RAV4 are the kind of size she'd be happy with and out of all of those only the X3 is available with a proper engine/chassis. If it was my car, then a black R50 or RRS HST would be ideal... with an Exige for the weekends... hmmmmmm... Steve is after an M3 Coupe... Hmmmm.... |

I test drove the "Toe-Rag" at the weekend - 5.0l V10 Altitude - nice bit of kit - gorgeous ergonomics and lovely place to sit - but they just dont have the road presence of an RRS. I then test drove an RRS 3.6 TDV8 and that all made much more sense - albeit much more money too!! My friend has offered me his 3.6 TDV8 RRS, black on black, remapped, full Concept Enigma body kit and full performance exhaust, 22" rims - a bit bling bling drug dealer football tw*tish - but one hell of a motor. He's offered it to me at a good price and whilst weather is still shite im very tempted to run it for a few months then sell it on and get my money back. I just cant find the right M3 in white so maybe i'll jump into the RRS and wait for the right M3.

I went to the famed tow a jumbo jet with a Toe Rag experiment,amazing is all i can say,monster torque and so easy.
Never driven a denzil RRS but many plush petrol ones.Once you get over the frightening mpg lol,its a lovely thing,seemed short and squat on the road. |

The local Land Rover dealership has a RRS HST in white, just looks the dogs danglies, but not really sure I fit the correct "profile" to be driving one. I'd have had a closer look but they are closed Sundays (WTF!)
I like the Toe-Rag R50, etc... just because there is an air or reservedness about it, with no chrome spinners and limo black glass you find on RRS's Have already had a few enquiries on the 130, will see how it goes. |

Great car, how does something so big go so fast? Just couldn't get on with the "profile" expectancy of other people when you get out of it. If you get my drift. I expect smelly people with long hair would camp outside our house throwing mouldy fruit at us. Well, at least you can just run them all over in the RR whilst shouting 'out of my way peasants' X3 3.0d would be good IMO. |
