I have a matte paint on my M3W. Very easy to keep spick & span.

Use specialist wash fluid, and follow up with a surface sealer on a sponge before hosing off & wiping down with a cloth. Simple, really.

As I understand it, it's still a lacquered finish, just a matte one.

I recognize all the dash switches, except one. What is the Sound Switch on the Dash?? Lower Right.

At £60k I'd be looking at a 3.7 Roadster.

If it had a bit more room in the back, I could be seriously, seriously interested, but there you are, no room behind the seats. [Think 3 terriers, a couple of bags as well as a large Waitrose shop, [my wife always does a large shop at Waitrose] The 4 seater copes really well, but I do not want or need that really ugly seat belt tower at the back or the horrible hood the 4 seater is burdened with.]


Come on Paul you know that it makes sense to upgrade for a limited and quicker newer car, life too short, and you have another car for the other luggage. Perfect for nipping along those twisty roads and playing on track days! stirpot evil
