All the cars are half the price in england compared to Sweden :/

I paid 31800GBP with 33554 miles on it
I was about to sympathise - and then I saw your garage on the link!

Now I'm just jealous - you must get paid at least twice what we do. :rofl:

That was up for sale 2 months ago for £23k, same seller but the same pose had his wife in the car......clearly she didn’t “sell it” so he’s taken over to show her how it’s done!!! :rofl:

What will be next if his pics don’t sell it? :cry:

Whilst I normally find myself in tune with Mr Wilks findings, I sadly am not this time. I just don't think that BMW do good silvers. It's probably me but interested in what others think.

Perhaps the lighter interior is giving a saloon Jaguar appearance in the pics but you can easily add character to that car & 4500 miles is less than many demonstrators sell with , it isn't crazy cash , there's good potential there , just needs a owner with vision & enthusiasm to add something more to it :driving:

I totally agree the seat/paint combo is far from ideal and those wheels... :cry: Mr Wilks car shows how much better silver can look..... almost as good as DSB or Grey :wink:

Much as I have had enough silver cars to last a lifetime, mr wilks' one does look so much better than the one in the photo posted! :thumbsup:

I generally like silver, it's just BMW silver always looks pants on the cars I see at the car Stealer. I haven't seen a E89 mind you but 3 series X3 X5 i3 2series tourers always look lacking in some way. It never seems bright enough. Mr Wilks looks better but it doesn't look like the normal silver on said cars. I'd like to see it in the flesh to be totally convinced.
