Time to move on my daily driver - it's a superb comfortable car, has been completely reliable, and returns great mpg.

Dynamic Stability
Cruise Control
Park Distance Control (PDC) Front and Rear
17in Light Alloy Wheels - currently running on spare set of alloys fitted with winter tyres
Factory Alarm / Immobiliser System with Remote Control

Typical 50 mpg
Full set of manuals/books/documentation
Genuine unused BMW Space saver spare wheel plus tools - bought as an extra, as it was on runflats when I bought it, and no spare from the factory.

Some of you may recall a 'gentleman' drove into the back of me before Christmas - the car has been repaired to as new standard, requiring a new complete tailgate and bumper. No structural damage, but the bill was still £4k! Glad I wasn't paying...

Excellent car - has been absolutely perfect in the 2.5 years I've owned it. Very clean, regularly professionally valeted by the same chap who does my Maser.

Everything works...

Car will come with BOTH sets of alloys at the asking price - one set of the original BMW alloy wheels for car in perfect condition, fitted with summer tyres, PLUS the not so smart set currently on the vehicle (in the photos), fitted with winter tyres.

I'm looking for £8995.... One of the cheapest out there, and certainly it's a good one.

Do you feel the 2.0 engine is up to the task for a car of that weight?
I just recently tried a 525 that I'm considering buying and was unimpressed with the torque of the 6 cylinders.
My previous V60 felt lighter on it's feet

Might had the engine tired tough...

No question - it's not a particularly heavy car. 8s 0-60 is acceptable I think - plenty of torque.

Yep - I understand 210bhp is readily available from them, and no doubt a chunk of additional torque. It has been one of those 'round tuits' I've never actually managed to get round to sorting.

Thanks MAF - not sure on a replacement yet. I've knocked driving the mega-miles on the head since I stopped virtually all the 'going to the office' nonsense, so the field is pretty wide open.

I might buy a tractor...

Looks very tidy Drew, good luck with the sale & I doubt that it will be for sale for very long

Thanks Stuart - no particular rush on the sale, I just think it's about time for a change.

Thanks Dem - it's not quite mint, has a few stone chips on the front, but apart from that it's perfect.

Still hasn't received any offers, so clearly priced a bit too high.... Reduced by £1k to £7995....

What a great deal, I guess it's the time of year but surely you won't have it for long. Good luck

Looks like a bargain, Drew. If I drove many miles I'd take it.

What's a retractable dog?

Thanks Adam. That's probably a question for Dem...

Thanks Stuart! Good point - not a great time for selling cars. I won't be losing any sleep though if it doesn't sell - just fancy a change really.
