    Jesus wouldn't be a great spot to head into the ditch when you are up the other end of the country and nobody around who you know to give you a hand.

    No previous owner did and who ever did it didn't do a great job as it was starting to fade although a machine polish would kind of bring it back up. Back spoiler was sprayed to as they were normally black plastic on the mk2. Truth be known the mechanic struggled to find a panel that wasn't painted on it but it was original underneath so I wouldn't say it had any major accidents just light tips.

    Maybe it didn't get hit?
    Looks like someone just went mad colour coding, a thing I always think looks bad unless its meant to be as standard. Too much red going on!

    Well I think the spoiler looked well colour coded as the black plastic looked terrible on anything other than a black mk2 focus Id take or leave the rest of the colour coding sometimes you can have too much alright.

    Just changed my E46 coupe 4-pot diesel for an E92 6-pot petrol. Just don't do the miles these days. At this rate, I'll have an F32 next, seeing as I had an E36 previous to the E46! :p

    Sure is, little hint on first photo :) Options list is erm interesting! All that is missing that is possible in the E92 is heated seats. It has Logic 7 DSP audio, the sound quality is impressive. The old car had Harman Kardon which is not a patch on this to be fair.

    Not in the manual 335i's anyway.

    You'd much sooner see iDrive in an auto e92 than a manual for some reason.

    Sport auto box is pretty decent in the 335i - the 7 speed DCT in the M is incredible.

    From what I've heard, people (including a poster here) don't like them. The poster here bought an auto and got sick of it and sold it only a few weeks later. That's the reason for so many auto's being for sale compared to manuals.

    Mine was the only manual for sale at the time I bought it in 2012 and I've only seen two others pop up since then.
