Not sure about the bodykit and the electric sunroof. :roll:

Could at least put some effort into writing the ad for an £11k car :oops:

Low mileage is definitely not everything on an old BMW

Awesome. Theres a metal bumper car near me with 14k on the clock. Really timewarp. Yes its a lot of money but find another.

Shame its a fairly lowly spec with cloth and analogue clock but how could anyone molest it nw?

Well mine has 28,000. Full leather and all electrics. Was offered €7650 euro for it this summer by a UK person. I want €8,000 so would not budge. Maybe this one is not far off the mark in price.

Bob, are we looking at the same car? :?

At £6.5k Luke's car is pretty good value then. I'm gonna hold out for something under 5k miles.. Maybe by the time I find one I'll be able to afford it! :P

Auto - no thanx
White - no thanx
Bottletops - no thanx
Mileage - no big deal, as long as a car has been serviced regularly, I don't care what the mileage is.

I think so, that's a direct quote from the advert. See 2nd and 3rd lines of the description.

That's why i said they could at least put some effort into writing the ad for an £11k car.

it doesnt even say if its geniune or theres full and relevent history to back it up :mad:

ok if your a car collector and want ti just sat there, but if your gonna drive it regular..wouldnt a 20 year old car thats only done 9k, be a bit ropey and not used to being driven ? would you possibly encounter problems ?

also, is that like 9 grand over priced for a good condition one with average miles ?

m3 money , and i know what id rather have...

I've see this car in the flesh, it was just around the corner from where I was staying in Lymington (when we did the German Show), it was parked next to a Ferrari 355 which was up for £13,500 ! and 190E Cosworth which was up for £10,500 8O

It was in great condition, but no way worth £11k price tag !
