Few more pics - also managed to get the front discs and pads replaced at 13.5k miles under warranty after they developed a ring on the outer edge that was no longer getting swept by the pads - a great result!

The colour really makes that car. Lovely wheels too. Would so love those for mine but I’m actually looking to downsize to 18s because I’m so sick of the harsh, noisy ride on 19s.
Top wagon there mate 👍

Yeh, I feel lucky to have stumbled across this car - the colour sold it to me really!

The wheels are great - will be going black soon I think....

I personally find the ride on these OK, changing to MPSS has helped significantly mind.

Hi

As you have lowered the car does that not effect the warranty?

It will effect the warranty in relation to any suspension related issues - but not beyond that.

It’s not something I’d be worried about personally having lowered all my cars without issue.

Personal choice though obviously.

You think as the car is on PCP would that not be a issue..
How does it work when it goes for service to BMW

Slight tweak for the rear with the addition of gloss black tails from a 40i - larger diameter than the stock version, very happy with the look.

I also bought a red engine cover, which I wasn't sure of at first - but now I feel the contrast works well.

Quick update.....

I've just purchased some 513m's for the car. 18x9 ET29 and 18x10 ET40 with OEM F8x MPSS tyres, sizes are: 255/40/18 and 275/40/18 - a tight fit, but they look great in my opinion!
