First of all this is not meant to be a for sale thread!
I am currently running around in an N plate 525iX that my dad has owned from new, the MOT runs out at the end of October. I had it tested the other day to see what it needed - bottom ball joints and front tyres. As they are specific to the iX they can only be had from BMW and will cost around £138 each side with my discount as it is the whole arm. I don't really want to spend any money on this car as it was only ever a stopgap.
I have rung quarry motors and they have offered £100 for it as they already have quite a few in, is there any where else you can suggest, I don't really want to be bothered with Ebay and Autotrader, having just sold my last car it was a real hassle!
Any suggestions much appreciated!
Thanks

How much are you looking for it?
Saloon or Touring?
Manual or Auto?
What sort of spec?
Where is the car? in Woking or Bakewell?

I am tempted with ebay, but to be honest I really can't deal with all the timewasters again after just selling a car!
To the others thanks for your offers, I have been offered £300 by someone so if nothing better comes along they will get the car.

If quarry have a few in, why not buy used suspension arms from them? A pair of super budget remoulds and it would get through an mot
