A rare opportunity to secure one of BMW Ms most celebrated modern classics the BMW 1 Series M Coupe, presented here in the signature launch colour of Valencia Orange. This example has travelled just 26,298 kilometres and is a genuine one-owner car from new. It comes with its original documentation, sales contract and service history, with the most recent service completed in April 2026. Finding a 1M with this ownership profile, mileage and presentation is becoming increasingly difficult. The BMW 1M has become one of the most desirable M cars of the modern era. Produced in limited numbers and only available with a 6-speed manual transmission, it captured the essence of BMW M at a time when compact, rear-wheel-drive, manual performance cars were becoming increasingly rare. With its wide-body stance, short wheelbase, turbocharged 3.0-litre straight-six and hydraulic steering feel, the 1M delivers a raw and engaging driving experience that has helped it earn genuine collector status. Finished in Valencia Orange, this car presents exactly as many enthusiasts remember the 1M from launch bold, purposeful and unmistakably M. The condition is exceptional throughout, reflecting the very low kilometres and careful long-term ownership.
