Hi everyone

I've been reading this site for a while, never posted before though! I was looking to advertise my car here but decided to keep her after all! The enthusiasm I found on this forum made me realise that I didn't really want to sell my car at all. I have a 1990 320is, a lovely car indeed.

I have a question for anyone based in the Swindon area.. Are there any good BMW specialists in the area? I know of PC Autocare in Lydiard who seem to know what they're doing but are there any more that anyone knows of?

Cheers :)

If you DID decide to sell her, what money were you thinking of letting her go for...? Just curious...

Giles.

Hi

Glad to hear you're keeping your E30

I am not in the Swindon area, far from it, but this link may be useful.

Thanks for the link, I'll take a look at that!

Geeman - IF I sold it I think I'd be looking at around what I paid for it, which I mentioned in another thread!! Should have kept my mouth shut :wink:

Seriously though, I think I'd ask about Ԛ£3500ish. I think that would be fair but I don't want to get into one of those price arguments I've seen on here :(

Either way, I'm keeping her for sure. The only reason I was going to sell was because my girlfriend and I bought a house and we have three cars between us. We need to get that down to two and I was going to sell the 320is and keep my other car which is... a dread mentioning it on this forum even if it is a fun little car... a 106 rallye. Now I've persuaded my gf to sell her car and have the rallye instead so I get to keep the 320is :D

It's worth much more than Ԛ£3500... I sold mine for Ԛ£5k, but it was MINT and had leather and air-con...!

Wow, I'll bear that in mind if I ever decide to sell! Mine doesn't have leather or air-con though but she is in extremely good condition with low mileage. She's also in better condition than when I bought her and I p lan to make her better still!
