looks decent however you will find people who may want a totally standard and unmoletsed example, body kit and esp side skirts are nonstandard rare car though , 3k? just my opinion, ull never got wot money u have shelled out on the car

That rear is lower than mine when I had 700 quid's worth of booze in the back after a trip to France

How long do the rear tyres last?

Put the M Tech II side skirts and door pods back on and it'll sell a little easier I think, plus you won't be lying about it being a full M Tech II bodykit either

Re what it's worth, you could put it on eBay starting at a penny and see what people are prepared to pay for it, and then pull it just before the end (making sure you say in the auction text that you reserve the right to do so) if you're not happy with the price, but I didn't suggest that.

318i dont fetch as much as 325 so i reckon your looking around the 2750 to 3250 mate, i picked mine up last year with less miles full service history 1 owner and a rarer colour, from a dealer for 2500.
bit of a shitter when yours is as good as it is but i would do a 2.5 conversion on it buddy try an get a bit more dollar for it

thanks for all your replies, just to add, i am the second owner from new, the previous owner was a 56 year old man from bradford. the front and back bumpers are ORIGINAL bmw Mtech 2 and i did have the door pods and side skirts but sum c*nt nudged my car and damged the drivers side one luckily nothing else was damaged so i got the current side skirts for Ԛ£30 just for the moment an never got round to changing them. the Mtech 2 bodykit was fitted from the factory according to the original reciept for the car anyways.

the tyres have been on 6 months and there probly in need of a change sometime around febuary i think. not long life i know but i only use the car at weekends mostly and i get tryes for Ԛ£25 each through work.

i have a set of brand new Mtech shocks, and -45mm lowering springs waiting to go on as the current ones arent doing my sumo any good lol i am then looking to drop sum 17" polished wheels on it. any1 think ill get anywhere near Ԛ£4000?????

there was one on ebay about a month ago, complety standard,cloth interior mint condition same colour, with more miles and it sold for Ԛ£5000 buy it now

I would guess at about 3000, as however nice it is, its still only a 318i lux. (dont get me wrong, i like them a lot, got one myslef!). You have to put yourslef in the buyers shoes and think whether you would go for a 325i at that price. Good lcuk with the sale.
