Looks like my old 1M is for sale for $95K, six years since parting with her..

Still looks good Zuzu. Considering a buyback? 1M prices have gone a bit loopy during Covid, 95k is a hefty sum.

Definitely gone loopy mate.
Sold her 5 years ago for $78k with 22k kms on clock.
Now buy back at $95k with 53k kms.

Ahhhhh… Nope.
Still have her mini me in my trophy cabinet for the awesome memories.

I remember the Minichamps custom model thread! Was quite impressed how customised Max would take each model. Yours looks very faithful. Still have my model, but kept the real deal as well.

Yeah, that would be a bitter pill to swallow to pay a premium for more mileage, but it does look well cared for. Hope it goes to a good home.

Totally agree mate and she deserves a good home as is still immaculate.

To be honest, if I didn't have a 6MT now, would be tempted.

One thing not mentioned in the add, is that it has the Genuine SSK and Wagner intercooler that I installed.

[questionable]

I just brought a 1m to sit next to my m2cs have you got the ssk part number ?

Try this thread for some advice. I also have the bmwp ssk lever for n54 in my 1M and it feels fantastic, but unfortunately it was discontinued as of a few years ago. Will have to go aftermarket or try used.

1M buyers in the used market can be a strange bunch. They are generally averse to modified examples when purchasing, then carry out the exact same mods once they pick one up. I'm not surprised it wasn't mentioned in the ad.

I have contacted Ronald at http://autosolutions.info/ in regards to purchasing SSK for the M2C..

He would be the best person to contact.. cheers

If you 6MT owners haven't done so already, CDV delete combined with SSK makes a big difference. You can also go down the more solid gearbox bushings rabbit hole, but this has the trade off of more NVH.

what are the impacts of the CDV delete, what do you lose?

The Clutch Delay Valve (CDV) is something BMW puts in place to limit the flow of hydraulic fluid to the clutch, supposedly to minimize stress to the components. It was introduced around the same time BMW began offering included service that covered clutches.

It does make the clutch take-up/engagement somewhat unpredictable and sluggish at times, making for a sometimes jerky ride.

I would replace with a modified valve that has the internal pin hole opening bored out rather than delete completely. 100% reversible mod.

Sorry Zuzu for the thread tangent.

All good mate...

Good review for the newbies for CDV delete and my fault really as it started with my mention of the SSK..lol

Stunning, looks well maintained.

I should have bought my ex-colleagues 1M Coupe (same colour) back in mid 2014. It holds value so well that can easily beat inflation (if not put into other type of assets lol), and of course, all in addition to the raw fun to drive it
