Is it my imagination or is the market getting softer for our cars? It seem that you can get a good coupe now for around the 11k mark, here is a good example that we missed out on at the end of November, just a month ago, 10600 pound plus 6% buyers premium. 91000 miles, FSH.Black / Carbon trim. Watched a couple go thru BCA too, 60k miler for not much more than this between Christmas and New Year

I'm sure there will be a summer upturn, but still - ouch.

A midnight blue Z4M coupe with 50k, Apex arc 8 (£1600) and a (£3000) carbon intake went though BCA for 16k plus buyers premium, it was sold as seen, only damage I could see was a small dent in the bonnet.

Our BMW are not the only marque to have fallen away. High value cars have slowed up too, its a global thing. The highs were early 2018, and its a slippery slope since, with no end in sight. Thanks for the post MrPT.

Yes watched that car. Beautiful colour too. Sometimes there is no underbonnet photo, didn't pick up on the intake, and the sales staff are very unhelpful unless I call up.

Looks like it's time you joined the M club!

But as lovely as that one looks, Ruby Black needs plenty of cleaning - although when the light hits it right it looks amazing.

Ah the ///M club :driving: I plan the next weekend/non daily to be a 997 but an M could be a good stepping stone. Would have to be the MC as I just prefer the look. Mind you the first warm sunny day I would predict a comment from my wife along the lines of ‘it would be nice if the roof could have gone down ‘ :headbang:

If you do get one try to keep her quiet until it has warmed up properly, gun it up the road and I can guarantee that won't be her 1st comment! :lol:

My MR is up for sale again as the weather’s shaping up. Priced very keenly if anyone is interested.

Phew, it's probably just as well I bought my MC in December.

I could have been seriously tempted by an MR in Imola Red, especially at that price!

I would normally say GLWTS, but Papa-Zee you really won't need any luck - just don't get knocked down.
