• It is powered by the 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged inline-six ‘N54’ engine, delivering 335bhp and 332lb-ft of torque to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• Finished in Valencia Orange with a black leather interior, the 1M stands out with its signature flared arches, aggressive bumpers, and quad-exit exhaust.

CONDITION

SERVICE HISTORY

• The seller notes that the car is now overdue for a service, so this will need to be completed by the next keeper.
