Mineral Grey F31

A few pics on my F31 in mineral grey

Iamthelaw · 03-05-2015, 03:47 PM

Looks awesome, mineral grey is slowly becoming one of my fav colours!

Andrewthefirst · 03-05-2015, 03:50 PM

Very nice indeed

Tengocity · 03-05-2015, 03:54 PM

Nice!

What's the white thing lurking in the garage? Looks sort of like a mk1 mx5?

k44ENT · 03-05-2015, 03:57 PM

Thanks for the kind comments. The white thing is a Lotus Elan +2 S. It's undergoing a full rebuild that is now into year 3, taking longer than I anticipated.

JoshB25 · 03-05-2015, 04:00 PM

328i, awesome! Would love a go in one!

Beancounter_74 · 03-05-2015, 04:00 PM

Very nice

You're not helping with the wait I have though posting pictures

Proftinkerpot · 03-05-2015, 04:01 PM

Stunning car. I have already thought if I was changing my EBII F30, I would go for a Mineral Grey F31 with the 20" rims. The photo of the back of your car shows the colour brilliantly. It can look dark, but in sunlight it's absolutely stunning.

amaar_malik · 03-05-2015, 04:08 PM

Lovely, the black grills go really well with MG

Steve_M_Sport · 03-05-2015, 04:11 PM

Looks great in MG. I nearly bought one the same colour with Coral Red leather but ended up with another EB11 and black dakota as not entirely convinced I could live with a red interior long term

k44ENT · 03-05-2015, 04:16 PM

The colour was not my first choice, I actually went to buy a white F31 with red leather but this car was the only new stock car with the options I wanted although it doesn't have adaptive dampers. A factory build was 4 months so I decided not to wait. I came from a Jaguar XF so a class above the 3 series but so far the 3 series has exceeded expectations.

TH15BMW · 03-05-2015, 05:03 PM

That is a sexy colour!! Good choice

AP_75 · 03-06-2015, 03:56 AM

Nice pics, good choice. I was after a 328i Touring but found them hard to source at BMW dealers used so went for a 330D in the end.

Good to see you have an Elan also, another good choice. My Dad restored a +2S 130/5 back in the late 90s and love driving it. It took him over 5 years to finish if any consolation.

ken m sport · 03-06-2015, 04:16 AM

Love the spec and colour. Please post pics of the Lotus when completed!

sunscreemer · 03-06-2015, 04:49 AM

F31 in mineral grey is exactly what i'm considering right now...!! Looks great.

simon. · 03-06-2015, 04:51 AM

Nice. I have the 335D in the same

Might get around to putting a picture up soon, never have the time / weather to take a 1/2 decent one atm

John435D · 03-06-2015, 05:29 AM

That's a very smart looking motor

polished123 · 03-06-2015, 07:59 AM

Car looks great, fellow 328i driver too!

Arrh this is making me so jealous though got to wait till end of April till mine arrives.

Yep ain't happened unless there's a picture

Tom Tallon · 03-06-2015, 11:13 AM

Looks great - same colour as mine, same wheels but 10 times cleaner and better looked after than mine! Well done!

PS Cant quite make out upholstery just to round off image? Not red, perhaps beige or black or a special?
