As many of you know, I have had to sell my Beatrice before I even got to fully finish her
. Life changes recently forced me to find a car to drive year round as the shared cars were being liquidated.
I’ve decided to go a very different route with the new car. One that affords me the comfort I want while driving while also giving me the ability to race again. This led down a couple directions for me, but BMW was always on my mind. Little did I know there was another WSC member out there looking for the same car…….
I managed to find a slightly higher mileage 2008 (edited in) 135is (Canadian) optioned the way I wanted and looking near mint despite the mileage. This will be the story of Biene.
Biene has all the packages I was looking for and a whole list of ones I was fortunate to get. The main packages for me were;
M Sports Package
M Sports Suspension
Comfort Access
Lights Package
To date I have only ordered an Access Port for her, and will be getting it tuned to stage one for the time being. There are plans for more in the future, but until life starts sorting itself out, the AP is about the only mod for a while.
