6 series msport with moonstone

MADEYE · 10-02-2021, 03:04 PM

Hi all, long time fan of the site. I've had about 10 BMW's down the years but since the 6 series came out I had to have one.

I've had this 640D for about a year now, lots of nice extras and drives like a dream.

I had OEM 19" wheels with run flats but recently changed to 20" Alpina's with non run flats. My impression is while the ride changed marginally, the tyre noise did reduce significantly.

The Alpina rims in my opinion really make the car, not only in looks but stance too. New Bridgestone Potenza Sports are really positive in feel too.

Anyway here are a few pictures…

I really wish we could get the D here in the states! Those wheels look amazing! Congrats!!

Interior, Full Nappa leather, Comfort seats.

Favourite part is the heated steering wheel!

The Bridgestone Potenza Sports is an incredible tire. Of course it costs a bit too much, but what do you invest your honestly earned money into? Driving safety and comfort. The tire is certainly an ideal without exaggeration. Rain is not a problem for her at all. Soft, straight smoothness is felt. Lux in one word! They are very suitable for this car, everything looks gorgeous! By the way, each car is associated with something, for example, with some kind of mascot, I read about this at https://www.sunsigns.org/boar-animal...lism-meanings/. I can say that if you value your car, you will buy only the highest quality accessories for it.

Love those alpine wheels, I have 20 inch m sport type alloys with non RF on mine and it drives great. Looks like your in Dublin there, Dawson street area i think?

Not too bad with a power hose and a toothbrush!
