I have traded in the GTI as part of the deal. However, I will also advertise it on here, Pistonheads and Autotrader. To make the car more attractive I will be selling including the Smoked R Rear LED's ( unless BMW take the car in which case I will sell separately with Raffe for first refusal ).
Congrats mate, thats pretty much bang on the spec i'd have as well except it would have to be blue!!
125i M Sport Estoril Blue
Thats the puppy!! (copies the pictures) hmmmm.
Sorry but i think you have made a mistake and I will explain why.
To me the 125i looks like a standard cooking 1 series, something any 18 yrd old spotty estate agent drives. Could be 116d for gods sake.
You have been driving a GTi, a car with 35 years heritage and that feels special, looks special and is special. Mine turns heads, I am sure yours does as well. Makes me feel good.
The 125i is just another 1 series with a 2litre petrol engine. There is no magic here. I think you will be trading it in within 6 months.
Cancel that 125i order and get the M135i with no options. It is a special car and will have a cult following. It will feel special as it is special.
A car that has no equal and one that you can keep for years.
