Very underhand of BMW to not openly disclose that these are ex Palmer Sport.

Oh I don't know... The taster are cars are nannied by the instructors with novices, and they are designed to be track suitable! What's an M car for!
I'd take one if the price was right!

Agree with Tengo, they are probably just run in.....
nothing wrong with them being sold, but it should be disclosed and priced accordingly.

DarrenL_007 · 11-17-2015, 04:01 AM

I would def have one at the right price.

Surely these cars more than any 3 series are designed for serious driving and can absorb whatever the track can throw at them... Besides what's worse..a track car or a short trip frequent cold start city car driven over speed cushions for a few years?
I know which one I would choose, providing the history was disclosed.
Bet there are some hefty discounts available if you are cheeky..What an opportunity to get a genuine low mileage M3.

I nearly bought a loaded 135i from Stephen James in Bromley There was something about the excessive spec of the car that didn't feel right. i got back from a road test and Googled the reg. It came back as a press car and there were a few videos showing it being ragged by journos. I kept looking.
