Mate of mine is looking at this 320i 4 door on e-gay.
I was up last week with a reserve £1500 but he has just relisted with a Buy it now of £995.

Has anyone had a look at it. I'm a little suspicious of the big price drop in the space of a week.

My gut feel is that it sounds like an honest car.

the big price drop is because he had his head in the clouds thinking he would get that price and has now come back down to earth a little

If you wanna spend a grand on a low miles low owner car,

why not go for a chromie 316 or 318 coupe?

tons more character and a hell of a lot better looking imo

loads knocking about for that kinda money aswell bro

Looks like a standard run-of-the-mill poverty spec E30. Front electric windows and nothing else.

Probably bought by a sensible middle manager from new, squeezing out his end-of-year-bonus to get a six cylinder engine at the expense of any interesting optional extras, and then spent 20 years polishing it on sunday and the occasional weekend jaunt to Devon.

Solid but dull is my opinion, but as long as there's no serious rot on it it's worth a grand.

The ONLY redeeming feature that has is the mileage, the colour/surplus of doors/lack of spec and grim trim heavily out weigh the low mileage. Best left alone.

Lack of cc's, excess of cylinders.. Nuff said.

nothing to get exited about here !

i'd say the buy it now is about £750 overpriced,

being kind...........

Even with the low mileage there is no reason at all to buy this car

My mate won this motor.

£570 i think is an ok price. Slave cylinder is going on it.

It does lack a little character, but a bit of sprucing up can fix that. The shell is immaculate and we just had our first village meet.

I have always liked the grey. its a nice respectable colour.
