This was on Autotrader a few weeks back. Recognise the wheel centres. Certain something has changed but can't bring to mind what it is...breezer wrote:Online auction: https://www.the-saleroom.com/en-gb/auct ... f100cc7ecc

You say that, but I don't see many around cheaper. That's what happens when cars appreciate - the crap ones go up in value too...don't get anchored to a single point in time.mr wilks wrote:Hope the door isnt closed fully https://www.gumtree.com/p/bmw/beautiful ... 1209852547

Remember the 'worlds worst' Ferrari 456 that sold for £17k? You think you'd get change from £30k for that now?

All the talk on engine issues does get me a little nervious. especially when I have spent the last 13 years in jap cars that seem to have no issues being tracked, while running 100 bhp over std on an untouched 20 year old engine.
I'm hoping it's a small number of cars, and as with all forums you only hear about people having issues and not about all the cars running fine.
I can't see cams failing due to one track day on oil that's not even over due a change, unless the car had spent allot of time on track in its life. I would guess it's more likely levels running low or incorrect oil used.

It's weird when people put such a lack of effort into an advert...he might just have well written "it's a silver car, goes quite fast, no time wasters please"
You'd have to be very close by or desperately want one to bother going to see it.

I really wouldn't worry, there must over 100 M cars on this forum and maybe just 1 or 2 have had any major engine problem. It's a brilliant engine, as well built as any pushing 100bhp per litre...get one bought before they're £30k for a decent one!afennell wrote:All the talk on engine issues does get me a little nervious. especially when I have spent the last 13 years in jap cars that seem to have no issues being tracked, while running 100 bhp over std on an untouched 20 year old engine.
