      About the 6 series being popular now even though there wasn't a tremendous amount bought from BMW. I reckon it's because most car enthusiasts can't afford a brand new car from the dealer. So they save and wait for the price to depreciate. Just my personal opinion. I saw a B8 S5 for €11,500 yesterday. As you know, it's better to buy a second hand car. Getting what you want without paying full price.

    I’m actually the proud new owner of the car and can only say how fantastic it’s been! I dealt with Jerome through Binca and everything was easy. Couldn’t recommend Calvin and the team more! Crazy to think it’s had a life before the 4-5 years I will be keeping it🙌🏽❤

    Just amazing cars these - to my mind the genuine reincarnation of the original E30 325i M Tech 2. Absolutelly beautiful handling. Way better looking than the 135/40. Sold mine about 3 months ago and miss it every day. It was the convertible in mint condition fully loaded 75k mile and sold it to my know trader for £13,750. He sold it a week later for £16k. I only paid £14,000 for it privately 12 months prior
