Looks lovely - I have a question for you, however. I have an OEM armrest that was fitted by the people who re - trimmed my interior, and they have put it in the other way round (ie drinks holders towards the back seat).

Have they done this wrong?

it's a aftermarket product i bought from Scothall BMW in Leeds, it was made after several requests from customers that felt the required such an item, i was informed that was the last one in the UK. i highly doubt it more an edge to make me purchase the damn thing. is very handy in an auto just makes crusing more fun :)

No respray's however the back end is need of a restore, as it has faded a little.

Looking around on Autotrader would suggest to me that you could ask £2500 - £3000 or more for it based on it's condition and mileage if someone really took a liking to it. It might not sell quickly but I hope you won't need to sell it!

Is the armrest annoying you yet? If it wasn't for the fact that mine has been re - trimmed to match my interior, and I appreciate the rarity of them, I reckon I'd have slung it by now :o:
