True but then again if they are selling at the sort of prices (give or take a grand) that Sytner have been advertising at then private seller expectations will increase too. The market does appear to be on an upward curve currently. It's fun if you've already got a car.

Private sellers I think seem to struggle with high value cars. Expectations are not always met, hence why current lot seem to be going to the dealers(well one anyway) who then seem to be controlling the prices.original guvnor said:

I've just checked the AUC site and Sepang and Imola Z4MC's are still both on with "coming soon" against them. So if they are sold they need to update the site.

Love the wishful thinking Darren
In the 3ish years that I've followed the market, in general cars are selling a lot quicker now. These are rare cars selling into a niche market. It's not just the price but the speed with which they are selling which is surprising me.
A few comments recently such as "this one's been around for a couple of weeks now, it's priced too high" I think have shown how this market has moved. A year ago, a higher priced example of an M could take 6-8 weeks to sell, all time required to find that one buyer after a 'minter'. Seems much quicker now

Mine was a high miler at the time (about 75k miles I think) but when I tried to sell mine back in 2012 I had no takers. I was trying to sell in Plymouth which probably didn't help (many not willing to travel this far). As I needed something more practical at the time, and had no room for a second car, I then traded it in for an X1. It sat on the dealer forecourt (in Plymouth) for I think around 6 months and eventually I remember the screen price being only about a grand more than my trade in price! I was temped to buy it back then it just disappeared - think they probably auctioned it off. According to the DVLA it has not been taxed or MOT'd since but maybe it was put on a private plate or shipped abroad.
That's funny - didn't sell at £11,995 for however long then put the price up? It's like house sellers who haven't sold their home in like a year or so but because the market is apparently up x% since then they raise their asking price tooHarpal said:
Just been to the butchers for my morning fix of bacon...
Came out and a guy was looking at the car, asked me if I was interested in selling. I told him £15,250..
He has a 330i convertible he is selling,he took my number and said he would be in touch.
Incidently he went to see the M roady in Oldham that Taz went to see and IHHO its a bit scruffy and needs a grand putting towards to make it good.
That would make a pricey roady at £17,000 +
