New D3S Touring owner

Post by JC980CGT » Mon Mar 11, 2024 1:09 pm

Collected from Sytner High Wycombe on Saturday, unfortunately later that day hit a huge pothole and damaged a wheel, so it's on it's way back to them with BMW recovery!

Looks great! You will certainly be on high pothole alert with 20" Classics!

That looks superb - love the colour combo.

And what a 4 car garage too - it doesn't get much better. 8)

Looks stunning JC. They’re a fantastic car. Shame about the bloody pothole. Hope you can claim for the damage off the council

I live not far from Sytner High Wycombe. Not been in for a while. I really like Dravit Gray in the sun it really pops. Being an E90 D3 BT owner I'd love one of these someday.

Sytner were telling me 4-6 weeks for a new wheel, Alloy Wheels Direct are supplying a new one by the end of next week and I bought a used one from ebay which went on yesterday with a new tyre so back on the road!

Regarding my Carrera GT (not Alpina I know!) lucky to have had it for 17 years and 60,000 miles now.

Glad back on the road. If you ever have need of a kidney or something I can live without and want to swap the CGT for it let me know :D
