2016 BMW 435I M SPORT

This 2016 BMW 435i M Sport is an exciting performance car with a very high factory specification, which benefits from a main dealer service history and presents in superb condition throughout. Under the bonnet sits the 3.0-litre turbocharged straight-six engine producing 302bhp and 295lb-ft of torque, coupled with a ZF eight-speed automatic transmission with paddle shift. The odometer currently indicates 73,541 miles from new.

First registered in March 2016, this 435i has two previous keepers on the log book, and was acquired by its third and current owner nearly two years ago.

The bodywork of this 435i remains in good condition, finished in BMW Individual Tanzanite Blue. While there are some stone chips on the bonnet and wheel arches, the finish is believed to be entirely original and presents well. The exterior comes with ICON adaptive LED headlights, as well as the M Performance diffuser, grille and exhaust system. It rides on adaptive suspension, and with a set of 19-inch five-arm twin-spoke alloy wheels, which remain in good order on all four corners, sitting in front of blue M Sport brake callipers.

Moving inside, the condition of the black Dakota leather upholstery is described as excellent, presenting with just some slight age-related wear to the driver’s bolsters. The cabin comes equipped with a sunroof, head-up display, heated seats with lumbar support, heated steering wheel, front and rear parking sensors with Park Assist, Surround View cameras, and a Harmon Kardon sound system – all of which are reported to work as they should, along with the remainder of the dashboard controls and switchgear. The driver assistance features include active cruise control with stop and go, blind spot monitoring and a collision warning system with brake intervention.

The dashboard features brushed aluminium trim, and all of the main contact points remain in good order. The cabin is currently equipped with velour floor mats, and an extra set of rubber mats is also included. Aukey front and rear dash cams are currently installed and will come with the car, though the next owner could of course remove them if they wish.

The last maintenance was undertaken in December 2020 at 73,401 miles, where technicians at Berry Heathrow BMW in West Drayton replaced the brake fluid and carried out a vehicle health check. Prior to this, an engine oil service was carried out in December 2019, when the microfilter, air cleaner and spark plugs were also renewed, and in September 2019 the gearbox and differential oils were changed by German ZF gearbox specialist Beissbarth u. Müller at 65,725 miles.

The most recent MOT test was on 6 January 2020 at 68,506 miles, which resulted in a clean pass with no advisories or defects. The front wheels are wrapped with Bridgestone Potenza tyres, which are reported to have around 6mm of tread remaining, while the rears come wearing Michelin Pilot Sport tyres, with 3mm remaining.

Accompanying the vehicle is the original owner’s handbook, while the vendor indicates all services are recorded on the iDrive system. A towing eye and wheel locking key are included, as well as the original first aid kit.

This BMW 435i M Sport is a well-rounded sporting coupe, which combines executive comfort with impressive performance and well-judged handling. Benefitting from a comprehensive maintenance history and presented in good order throughout, this 435i would make a smart addition to a family garage or enthusiast’s collection alike.
