B9 Solihull

Post by Philrose » Tue Apr 11, 2023 3:28 pm

I was followed through Solihull this morning by an immaculate B9 - or was I just dreaming?
Anyone here?

It’s coming up as a 525i Hap. Definitely an homage

From memory that's the one. Fake or otherwise there can't be 2 in Solihull and that is the colour.

It’s a replica. The guy is fastidious and he’s very open about it being a rep. It’s having a 3.5 conversion dropped in at the moment 👍
