I'm trying to budget for my possible 130i.

I'm looking at 11k SEs and 13k M Sports. All with less than 30,ooo miles about 3 years old.

Question is how much would they be worth in 2 years' time (ie 5 years old) with an extra 14,00o miles?

7-8k is my prediction. Maybe less.

The problem is that they are not the top range model(135i) so there is not the exclusivity that would keep them high(think M3 tax etc.) and they also 'suffer' from a big engine, £££'s of tax, uneconomical.

Great car, but you probably will lose a lot of money. :(
