We are delighted to offer for sale this exceptional 2011 BMW 1 M Coupé, finished in the iconic Valencia Orange Metallic with a Black Boston Leather interior. Having covered just 36,659 miles from new and benefiting from a Full BMW Service History, this is a superb example of one of BMW M's most celebrated modern classics.
Produced for just a single model year, the 1M Coupé has earned legendary status amongst enthusiasts thanks to its uncompromising driving dynamics, limited production and analogue character. Widely regarded as one of the finest M cars ever built, it perfectly captures the essence of BMW's traditional performance philosophy.
Power comes from BMW's acclaimed 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged straight-six engine, producing 335 BHP, driving the rear wheels through a 6-speed manual gearbox and a mechanical limited-slip differential. Combined with widened tracks, bespoke suspension and hydraulic steering, the result is a hugely involving and rewarding driver's car that continues to receive universal praise from the motoring press.
Finished in Valencia Orange Metallic, one of only three colours offered on the 1M, this example perfectly showcases the model's muscular styling, flared wheel arches and purposeful stance. The understated Black Leather interior provides the ideal contrast, creating a timeless and highly desirable specification.
This particular example has clearly been cherished throughout its life, as evidenced by its Full BMW Service History and exceptionally well-preserved condition. Opportunities to acquire unmodified, low-mileage examples with such provenance are becoming increasingly scarce as the 1M cements its place amongst the most collectable modern BMWs.
Adding a further touch of exclusivity, the car will be supplied with the cherished registration 'YAY 1M', a fitting and highly desirable addition that perfectly complements this iconic model.
With its low mileage, outstanding service history and increasingly collectable status, this BMW 1M Coupé represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire one of the most sought-after modern performance cars of its generation.
A beautifully presented example of a true BMW M icon, offering rarity, provenance and one of the most engaging driving experiences ever to wear the famous M badge.
