325i sport owners

[joeadams1979]

Hi ya Guys i've seen another e30 im thinking of buying but the thing is its had 12owners in its time being a red sport im sure it was a color to have back in the day but having so many owners doe's it really matter ?the car is in good condition fairly stock its covered 109k but would having so many owners put someone else off from buying it if i put it for sale

If you are buying to resell, twelve owners is BAD . It is more than likely a clocked pig so the keeper count is just a few more nails in the coffin. Obviously if it is very cheap, it becomes less of an issue , but paedoing it up to try and draw 8k out of it is probably pointless.

i was looking on buying it to keep but looking at the long run if i was ever to sell it having so many owners would be an issue is a real nice car but the owners my other sport got 8 keeps on a h reg with 116k not bad

all on condition, if it was super condition 100% history and genuine milage and a real looked after car with nice spec and been loved and looked after

thats better than a lower owner un genuine milage less condition car without much history

but dont forget to sell it- youd be 13th, new owner would be 14th ...

i think if a car was bang on and in the average price range, amount of owners wouldnt really bother mr average buyer if everything else was great

Is their anyway i could get hold of all the previous owners details eg how long they owner ed it for etc

Yes, pay DVLA and they will give a list . Why bother? it's only a dodgy old Sport, hardly a big ticket cream puff.

A bit like chasing up a girlfriends previous partners to be confronted with tales of anal gaping/water sports/caviar etc !

true polsta im gona end up buying it i think as the engine body and interior quite nice shame about the keepers and history but its one of the cleanest sports ive seen for awhile and priced at 4400 i know its a overpriced but its a sort of car i could buy and drive it around without spending any cash on it for awhile

[joeadams1979]

with out spending crazy on it

It would be much easier if you said how much you intend paying for it.

That will be a great help and was something you were, perhaps, concerned about?!
