Default 535 M sport twin turbo

Hi All

I recently sold the Mrs 3 series 325i sport and replaced it with a 535 face lift model, test drove a few and instantly knew this is the car to have, very quick in standard form and handles well.

Carbon black, 1 owner car with full BMW history. some pictures, hope you like..

Thanks for looking

84k is only just run in, most of these have starship mileage at that age.

i must have the skills lol the auto will be more thirsty than the manual anyway. i use cruise control everywhere i can as this keeps a steady throttle and pre-empt having to stop. if your coming to a junction you know you have to stop at DON'T go down through the box as every gear change causes the revs to jump therefore more fueling, seen 1000 miles from a tank.
