Hi, I've got a 1989 325i touring auto with the switchable box in lachs silver, 178k on the clock, grey cloth interior, Alpina reps fitted, just had a new radiator and all hoses, 2 new front shocks, track rod ends, a reet good service and a few other bits and bobs done by my garage where I work. Car is clean enough just the one little ding on the drivers wing but all in all a nice car. I know pics will help but can you guys give me a ball park figure of it's value to put it in the forum here. Thanks !

with it being auto mate it wont appeal to as many people as a manual would, at a guess going off what you are saying i would estimate around anything from Ԛ£800-Ԛ£1k. try it on ebay buddy might fetch a bit more, its also the high mileage you gotta take into consideration too, people tend to want there beemas lower and of 120k these days, if its got good history though i dont think you should have too many problems, being asthough you have also stuck the alpina reps on you might fetch a bit more with it looking nice :wink: thats my guess anyway but im sure you will have more people along to help you out, ive been looking at some on the trader recently and the tend to be going around the above figure also with alloys etc....
