nope, silver/grey half leather - std evo 2 seats

cars always look nice in pics but it still needs work. It doesn`t have front carpet at the moment for example, and the front seats could do with a retrim at some point and both seats move very slightly so there`s a bit of wear in the mechanism (both seats are bolted down well so it`s not that)

here`s a pic of the rear seats

Before this M3 I owned another which I kept for 4.5 years and drove for nearly 60k miles!!! It was a fantastic car

ah right, was wondering.
cos most m3's ive seen have the stictching the other way round.

eg horizontal not vertical.

Simon, if those wheels are from a 8 Series, I'll be interested in them if they don't go with the car.
