E89 Market watch

At that (ish) price I might just have been tempted - there was someone on here looking for a car but it was not in his budget range at the time - I’ve kept his contact details on the system just in case!

Recognise that description as I looked at that car several times.

£25,000 for a 2013 car....?

Ibooker was asking £21k for it so that is a £4k mark up if he did not negotiate a few quid off - I know dealers have to make a margin but that is bloody crazy even if it is a nice car on low miles :(
 
That said there's another one appeared on auto trader that's also been pimped slightly that's also the same sort of money.
 
[ref]ibroker[/ref],

25k......Jesus.......what does he know that I didn't!!!

Did you leave a Rolex in the glove box :lol:

You got what you were happy with so :thumbsup:

Now, does anyone want to buy a 2014 plate VO 35iS and I promise it’ll not be £25k :rofl:

I’ve just looked at the page and there is a car that looks identical to mine, albeit 8k more miles and they are asking £26.5k - it would still require another £20k input for an M40i in a similar spec.

Is £5 a year depreciation about right?

Ron if you’re looking at getting into a similar spec new M40i it’ll take more than £20k but with only £5 a year depreciation it’ll hold its value well :poke: :wink:
 
Oops!
I was £4995 out!

So even going down the CarWow Route £46k wouldn’t get a well specced up M40i?
 
So I can comment now its gone. At 21/22k that I originally asked it didn't attract any interest which surprised me. But then it was pimped slightly. I got for it what I expected a private buyer to pay from the dealer so all good. It seems to be the untouched examples that shift fast. There's another on auto trader that's also been pimped so will be interesting to see how fast they sell.

This one caught my eye recently, like the design pure traction interior with the black bodywork, the bronze wheels may not be to all tastes but I quite like them, gives the car that old jps formula 1 look, low mileage, cat back exhaust and a remap makes it quite a nice package.. not quite sure the e89 suits that rear spoiler though, only real fly in the ointment i guess

Sorry Ron, I couldn’t resist :lol:

Depending upon what options packs you tick but the last time I tried it with full spec it started with a 5 :cry:

I think my theory that cars that are OE spec n finish move faster / sell better than ones that maybe lovingly modded!

I’ve bought a few bits of owners who have found it’s much more cost effective to return their cars to OE spec and sell the goodies separately...

Of course if you’ve thrown the old bits away then it’s not much of a strategy..
 
2014 plate 35iS with 39K miles, seems the market is all over the place - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2014-64-BMW-Z4-3-0-340bhp-DCT-sDrive35is-Roadster-ProNav-Huge-Spec/284231492393?hash=item422d846329:g:kuYAAOSwG6RgW4Qo
