2008 BMW M3 | E90 | Saloon 4dr | 4. 0 V8 | MANUAL | Melbourne Red | 97k Miles
Brief Overview:
Having owned several E9x M3s, an E90 in Melbourne Red was always the ultimate dream. With only 1 of 15 manual examples in the UK, they’re true unicorns that almost never come up for sale so when the opportunity presented itself, there was no way I could pass it up! This is by far one of the best colours offered, and it’s no surprise it was chosen as a launch colour for marketing and debut purposes - Photos don’t do it justice!
