For sale is my facelift 2012 335i Sport Plus Edition.

The car is very highly spec'd being a Sport Plus and has Harmon/Kardon, heated seats with adjustable bolsters, the LED light package (lights in the door handles when unlocking at night), Xenon headlights, heated wing mirrors, full screen iDrive with bluetooth connectivity for music, voice control, auto lights & wipers etc etc

The colour is Le Mans Blue with 19" 313M wheel fitted with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S (235/_/19 front and 265/_/19 rear)

Seats are dakota black leather with blue stitching and blue piping around the floor mats, with the aluminium rhomicide interior trim.

• 128k miles - in daily use
• 6-speed manual
• Genuine M Performance exhaust
• Engine rebuilt in Jan 2024 by GND Motors
• Powerflex shifter bushes
• M3 rear subframe bushes
• New engine & gearbox mounts
• Genuine BMW fluid in gearbox changed recently
• Front brake are Brembo high carbon discs with Tarox Strada pads
• VRSF metal chargepipe
• 02 sensor, MAP sensors, and intake system gaskets replaced

Lots of recent preventative maintenance carried out, and the car drives superbly, much better than when I bought it and far better than the mileage would suggest.

There are only 2 other manual 335i's for sale on Autotrader which are both considerably more expensive, admittedly with lower miles.

So if you care about the mechanical condition of a car, this is the one to get and will also sound the best!

Price is £8,500
Location is Chichester

This is the 4th BMW I've owned, and is by far the most enjoyable to drive offering great performance and still being economical and great to look at.

I am selling with a heavy heart as I now need to save up to be in a position to put down a deposit.

Please message me for more information or pictures.

Thanks,
Will

I struggled to find any info on what the Sport Plus was when I bought it, so I had to get a brochure to find out.





Mine also has a few extra options like the interior lighting package, auto dimming rear view & side mirrors, heated seats & H/K speakers with surround sound.

But the package adds most of what you'd want anyway.

In the states that would be a 335iS Sharp car you have there and in the US market that's cheap.

335is had the N54 in it still didn't it?

The car market is in a bit of a slump at the moment as our insurance prices are rising and we pay an annual road tax which is related to the CO2 emissions so mine is £385 for the year.

I'm needing to save to afford a place of my own to rent & personally the insurance went down £50 for the car which is rare.

You don't see many Sport Plus Editions and even less in 335i guise, and even less with a manual... So I think it's a rare car but a lot of people care about mileage over maintenance in my experience.

Struggled to sell my E46 330ci manual because it had over 180k miles but had the subframe fully sorted with plates and an internal brace, all new suspension, rebuild VANOS, cleaned injectors, poly bushes etc etc
