Yes hi and welcome to the forum, as stated I've not seen many cars in this colour either but BMW seem to use it in promotional photos and videos quite a bit. Enjoy

Thanks for all the compliments guys. Yeah you're right about the colour being used in different promo videos etc.
I just love how it looks different depending on light. Just to let you know I had the arches colour coded along with a few other bits on there and had the mud guards removed also. Then had the wheels refurbed and I think that set the car off.
Recently been reading about people changing front bumpers to x5m but don't know how much work is involved in that. Any ideas?

I actually bought the car from my uncle who's a trader. It was a 1 owner car. It was from somewhere further up north in Scotland can't remember where now. Definitely not an upgraded sound system as a dont rate mine at all.

Just curious, I had seen a car very similar to yours advertised on the bmwland forum before it disappeared and it needed up being traded in to Fairbairns.
