I need some advice from the UK brigade please. I have silver 1993 318i Lux convertible.
Its got leather & all electrics.
The mileage is 25,800 miles fully backed up by mot certs and service history.
Brand new (from BMW) tech 2 steering wheel & matching indigo blue leather rear headrests either supplied or fitted to the car.
Timewarp condition no rust at all anywhere. Always been garaged.
BBS wheels refurbed last year and only done 600 miles since.
I love this car but may be looking at a new business idea so need a vale please. Thanks for your help.
Whats my convertible worth ?

Lovely looking cab. Must be £4000+ worth I'd say, but the problem with such low mileage cars is, "What do you do with it?" Drive it, increase the mileage and reduce the value or keep it as a garage queen - whats the point of that?

Mate take a look at this and you could get an idea http://pistonheads.com/sales/398864.htm
Obviously the car in the ad is a bit more sought after as its a 325i sport and the miles are lower but atleast it gives you a rough idea.
If I were you I would just keep it. These days when thinking about buying an e30 people consider 80k on the clock as low mileage as e30s are getting on a bit now and they all got quite a few digits on the clock.
If you keep it, you'd find it being worth a lot of money in the not tooo distant future.

Totally different car so hows that give him a idea ??madaboutthe30 wrote:Mate take a look at this and you could get an idea http://pistonheads.com/sales/398864.htm
If he asked 15k for that he would be shot down in flames

Yes its a very clean 318 cab but not a sport or motorsport and think the 4k mentioned is a good figure to go by .

I'd be looking to get more for mine then, if thats the going rate. OK mine has nearly 95k mileage on her, but full Tech2 kit/steering wheel/light-up gearknob/garaged/loadsa receipts/fully working electric hood and genuine Alpina Reps!
