This is a rather extreme example from Belgium: http://m.autoscout24.be/offre/-30308710 ... scout24.be

27.000 Euro for a 41.000 km 2006 Coupe...

Ongelooflijk!
The dichotomy between E85/6 market value and asking prices in the UK is the reason, even though I currently live in Holland, the reason why I'm looking exclusively for a UK car.
Will register in UK and use/drive around Europe.

I think this one has come down in price by £500?

Agreed I think that's a nice example. Good colour combo, ZHP gear knob, carbon engine cover and door sills. Doesn't sound like the dealer has much knowledge looking at the advert.

It does look nice & been discussed previously , with MachineMonkey exhaust tips so most likely a forum members car at some point

As you say Mr wilks maybe a forum car at some stage.
Does anybody have any further info on the car.
I ask because I am interested but I am in N Ireland so it's not easy for viewing.
It's a nice colour combo as well as reasonably priced compared to some.
Might give the dealer a ring.

Just a minor observation - it's Montego Blue, not Monaco. Monaco is a much darker, almost Navy blue and not as obviously metallic as Montego.

Nope. Intention is to keep the roadster and use that in Holland/Europe and trade in my 320d convertible for a coupe and keep that in the UK. My theory is that I can prob sell the 320d for what I'd pay for a decent coupe as it's got v low miles (25k) and the coupe would depreciate slower, or even maintain it's value as it won't be driven so much as the roadster as I'm based mostly in Holland atm.
There's method behind the madness

Ticks all the spec boxes I'm looking for. Slightly high miles than I'd prefer (108k) should I have any significant concerns with the N52 at that mileage?
Described as having a 'lovely' service history (?).

Hi Chris,

Nice looking car, but if you aren't too hung up on mileage this one is similar (even with the Piano Black trim and optional Multi-Function Steering Wheel option) - not sure if trim is Champagne or the standard Beige, but it is a fair bit cheaper!

BTW I like your plan of Coupe in the UK and Roadster in the Netherlands!
