thinking of selling up

Post Sun Jul 31, 2005 10:14 pm

i am toying with selling my car (for those that dont know its a 318i auto cab)

its a j reg (first registered on 03/1992
it has 81,000 on the clock (but no history to back it up)
its had new disks and pads all round
new top mounts front and rear
gonna have new subframe bushes done soon
and just replaced the steering coupling bush
and a little bit of paint to repair a key scratch (fuc*ing twats)
then she should be a goodun
will get all new oils & filters before it goes
15 inch bbs with very good tyres (and caps)
roof is manual and in very good condition
interior is in very good condition
it has also been chipped (thanks Ant)

just curious what you guys think is a fair price for this car
I paid Ãƒ”šÃ‚£3400 at the begining of summer last year
i know i am not gonna get that back but just curious what i would get for it

its also in a pretty rare colour
heres a couple of pics
the angel eyes wont be staying on there
they are coming off

I think it's worth not too far off what you paid for it... depends on year to some extent... I'd put it up for 3k... IMHO it's obvious if the mileage is genuine without history... good luck, nice looking car

How comes you wanna sell it? What you after as a replacement?

the Angel eyes i got from ebay
its a fibre optic kit (like that on the e39)

as for selling it
i am not definately gonna sell it just seeing what it could be worth really

i am in 2 minds really should i sell it and get a sport/325ise
on the other hand i am thinking of keeping it and doing
a m50/m52 conversion and making a pretty unique cab

A 6cyl 24v cabby would be very nice indeed, esp if M-tech II'ed up. Should keen an eye on the zoners doing their conversions and gauge what bits and pieces you need and how quickly it can all be shoved in! [/u]
