£9500 for an auto SE with aftermarket lights that make it look like you're pulling on its scalp
Have you watched the video that comes with that advert?

The bonnet is half open in one of the drive by shots!!

How do they even manage to sell cars.....?

My god I hadn't seen the video. Feel bad for the guy as he's young and doing his best, but it's a shocking video. It got progressively worse as it went on "I need to get myself one of these" - well guess what, the one you are driving is for sale. Then there are the drive by shots with the bonnet open as has been noted. Then toward the end, he starts thrashing it around in a residential area.

What do people think of the exhaust tip by the way?

Makes it look like a 2 litre diesel

Terrible. Is it just the tip or a whole back box / exhaust mod?

Yes

My 320D has similar, looks awful on that poor coupe.

WTF.

Prices seem to have gone mad in the last year or so! But like everything I suppose it's just down to supply and demand.

Hmmm will it sell for that? Happy for them to pull the market value up.
With M's hitting £600 Road fund licence, will it shake a few out or swing favour to the 3.0?

I agree, there’s supply and demand and there’s taking the p!ss, that to me is the latter

I don’t see it selling for that, I think the fact it’s an auto would hold it back on its own. I’m sure you are hoping that

Personally I’d not be bothered about the VED and go for the ///M but I’m sure others would be and as you say may swing things in favour of the 3.0. You’d better just keep yours then

As a slight aside, the VED for my M40i is £900 then £500ish I think the following years. I just treat it as a cost of owning the car.

I’m sure Attilio said his ///M was nearly €1900 a year in Ireland

I think your signature is a bit of a giveaway!

You really won't regret it, even if there is a price to pay!

The 3.0 came along during my search for the evasive Interlagos //M. I hope it turns up soon though, I cant afford a drive full of Zed's. They all just look so good!

Well the first MC I went to look at was this one, and it was stunning!

But I spent too long trying to make my mind up before it was sold.

Still within 6 months I found my current one with less miles and cheaper - happy days.

But after 3+ years with my Montego Blue Si Coupe I'd have to say it was a great car - just not an M.

I'd be very surprised if that eBay one sells, for anything close to that.

Not special enough to command that.
