I have done it!! The 1M is going

Axelf · 03-25-2014, 12:14 PM

Today I got offered a very good price for the 1M that I could not turn down..... So what did I opt to go for??????? I will be picking up a brand new 2014 M5 on Thursday fully loaded....

it is a totally different car to the 1M where as the 1M is a great fun car I needed a more practical car.. I will get some pics up after I have picked it up.. So I have the mats up for sale what I bought off Jezer on here... I would like £40 plus postage for the set they have the M badges stitched in to them and I will also include the boot mat that also has the same stitching on it in with the price... They are in very good condition as never used over the winter

Ender_ · 03-25-2014, 01:25 PM

My condolences to you!

Its like swamping out your hot active wife for a fat lazy one, but that fat lazy one likes cleaning or something LOL

Axelf · 03-25-2014, 03:46 PM

Mats have now gone ... But I have my winter wheel set up for sale will let them go for £600 I have pics on here with them on my car... Go on grab a bargain

Pugland53 · 03-26-2014, 12:17 AM

l888apex · 03-26-2014, 01:14 AM

Yeah, a 2014 M5 is one hell of a downgrade...

JWC · 03-27-2014, 12:13 AM

I am doing the opposite as you. Have the 14 M5 for about 6 months... and I am looking for 1M .

Axelf · 03-27-2014, 02:48 AM

Thanks guys... I had to change it as I needed more space, got offered £38000 so and a good deal on the M5 and so far I am loving it.......

Aussie_in_London · 03-27-2014, 03:58 AM

Can't complain about that trade in value. Enjoy the new ///M.

Jay-K · 03-27-2014, 07:36 AM

nice one, but you'll miss the small body of a 1M, and mostly the transmission if your picking up a DCT,
anyways for all the people who've sold their little beast…

That's a great trade in price, which part of UK ? Not selling mine yet. I went to see a M235i at a dealer yesterday and was completely unimpressed, it has no visual presence at all ! And the salesman tried to convince me it was a full blown M car ? BMW needs to make the M2 (a true successor to the 1M please) in the next year or 2 or I am off to Jaguar for an F type coupe or Aston Martin for a Vantage.

Axelf · 03-27-2014, 12:50 PM

Hi denso.... I am in durham.. The M5 is great .. On the M235i they are not as quick as the 1M and mine was standard .. The gentleman could not leave me in mine and he would not pull over to let me pass.. Upto the speed limit on the motor way but we were not racing....

I PM'd you about the wheels. When possible get back to me please. Thanks!

Axelf · 03-27-2014, 05:55 PM

Hi sorry the wheels were sold last night... i had a lot of people asking about them ... wish i had a few sets to sell.....sorry

DrShimmy · 03-28-2014, 12:01 AM

Nice one bro! In my simple mind I always say I will never buy a BMW with active sound, but I have never driven the m5 so I wouldn't know what I am missing. I am very sad to see you letting go of the 1M on the other-hand if I were in your shoes,I would have done the same. Congratulations on the M5, now please hurry up and post your car porn.
