We have owned and enjoyed this car since June 2023 but as my wife now works around the corner, so its time to offer it up for sale.

2014 REX edition (range extender, which is a small 650cc engine that produces electricity when the main battery is empty)

This the top of the range model Tera, with full leather interior, bamboo dash, large screen infotainment, sunroof and the addition of front and rear parking cameras, digital radio and harmon Kardon stereo speakers and 19 inch wheels.

"cut from the tinternet below"
powered by an electric motor producing 170 hp and 184 lb-ft of torque, which is fed by a 22-kWh lithium-ion battery with a BMW-estimated range of 80 to 100 miles. A gas-powered two-cylinder range-extender is available, and provides an additional 80 miles of range.
Personally I think these range figures were for the launch and so were somewhat optimistic. but if is definitely quick when you need it to be.
They did mock drag race with an M3 to show haw fast they are (0-60 kph)

The battery health is at 94.5% after 11 years of use. We have sorted all sorts of things out on it whilst in our ownership. which is listed in the photos. We have all history/MOT's going back to its warranty period.

I have cleaned it thoroughly, snow foam, clay bar, ceramic coat, then finally P&S beadmaker (if you know you know) so it looks great now.
It has bmw condition based service with everything up to date.
It will need new tyres soon, the wheels haven't been curbed but are starting to delaquer in places. everything else is good.

Car in Totnes Devon.
Price is £7250.
thanks all.

GLWS - looks a great car.

BTW - did you see Rich Rebuilds' video on how to get 400 miles range? Not insurance approved....

Try a 9:1 mix of Bead maker and Dream maker 😉
 
Can I ask, during your ownership, what on average have you achieved range wise on electric and then on extender backup? Thanks.

Hi there,
Thanks for the question, its not something I have kept a note of.

The rex has hardly been used due to short journeys to work or shops and home again.
Sorry!

Lovely car had one before Tesla Model S.
Buy it get on Octopus and charge it on overnight cheap tariff .
 
Huh? Is this a paint coating you're on about?

I had a little i3 same spec. Are there better cars? Yes. But for £7k as a town and city car - ace.
P&S Bead maker is a spray sealant, their Dream maker is a gloss enhancer. I've used the 10:1 mix after being really pleased with just the Beadmaker on my 1250GS that I part ex'd last year and seeing a youtube vid about combining the 2 for even more gloss

Likewise, had one for 4 years and absolutely nothing went wrong with it!

As an economical town car, and for ferrying the kids around it was just brilliant.

Have a bump Sir!
