My Sakhir Orange F32

PJJD · 11-01-2018, 05:29 PM

Hi guys,

Thought I'd post some pictures of my new 420d M Sport

The spec is as follows;

Individual Sakhir Orange II
Black Dakota leather
M Sport braking system
19" 704m Orbit Grey
M Seat Belts
Carbon Aluminium trim with Pearl Chrome finishers
Sun protection glass
High-beam assist
Digital Cockpit
Harman/Kardon sound system
M Sport Plus Package

I've also fitted;
- M Performance rear diffuser, carbon fiber spoiler, side skirt extensions and black kidney grilles
- OEM M4 paddles
- 12mm front spacers and 15mm rear spacers

I've also detailed the car including a full paint correction and two coats of Collinite 845 wax. I've coated the hubs, brake calipers and wheels with Gyeon Rim. I treated the leather with Raceglaze Leather Balm. Glass was sealed with Gyeon View.

Coming from my old Gran Coupe, I actually find the Coupe much quieter inside and more comfortable. I was pleasantly surprised by this as I thought that they'd be very similar as they're both 4 Series.

Anyway, enough blabbering from me; here are some photos...

Looks a bit run of the mill to me....

looks very nice I would suggest maybe adding a front splitter from Maxton design

APJ · 11-01-2018, 06:03 PM

Looking good there, great paint finish, worth all that hard work

Quantox · 11-01-2018, 07:05 PM

Beautiful colour and finish.

Cheers

Thanks mate. I was looking at them actually and might order one soon

cfm56d7b · 11-01-2018, 07:42 PM

The color is fantastic. Congratulations!

Steveo.G · 11-02-2018, 12:28 AM

Nice

I agree it could be doing with a front splitter now just to finish it off

RobUK · 11-02-2018, 01:16 AM

Best advert for an F32 that I've seen. BMW should be paying you for those photos

rich100 · 11-02-2018, 01:51 AM

Very nice looking car that

MashinBenzin · 11-02-2018, 01:52 AM

And coupled with that terrible view from his house as well. What a loser.

Stunning with a capital S.

MashinBenzin · 11-02-2018, 03:22 AM

One of the very, very, few threads where I have come back a second time purely for a longer look at the pictures. Yep, still stunning!

Alscoob · 11-02-2018, 05:03 AM

Wowz.... looks fantastic, very nice

PJJD · 11-02-2018, 11:38 AM

Thanks for the kind words fellas.

For those of you that are interested, photos were taken with a Samsung Galaxy S8 with all settings on auto. Have to say the cameras on the S8 are brilliant.

Thank god. Love your car, love the view from your house, love your photographs. But can feel smugly content as I don't get on with Samsungs

Thanks mate

I actually have an iPhone 6 for work and Galaxy S6 as my personal phone, and much prefer the Samsung. Each to their own of course though

I'm surprised BMW approved a Sakhir Orange F32, given that it's normally an M3/M4 color.

Agreed this is what I thought, I also nearly asked if it was merely Melbourne Red.

bad form from me I know.

Perhaps towards the end of an M life the colours are released somewhat, seen plenty of M colour 440i but nothing so glamorous on 20d.

Cracking car OP, one of the slickest looking 420d out there.

kzg1969 · 11-03-2018, 02:53 AM

simply lovely...

JoeF36 · 11-03-2018, 05:05 AM

Very very nice PJ... good to see another Irish car on here also!
