We have a watch on ///M cars & 3.0 Coupes so why not the 89s ?
Some are looking terrific value for those running Si's but ready for a change of Z without shredding the wallet
Recently a forum 09 Havana 2.3i 95k /sport seats went for £8500
By comparison a 3.0i on 60k/sport spec currently stand around the £12k mark
So feel free to throw on here any cars you find take your eye in the classifieds
I'l start you off with what could be a nice example but imo ruined with blacking the roof & mirrors :cry:
If blacked grills & alloys then maybe but sorry :cry: that's a fail :(
Image

otherwise nice colour combo , decent miles , BBS split 18s & all important sport seats for £10k driveaway ?

Had mine on auto trader for 14k full BMW history only 34000 miles and not one phone call :( have accepted less now in part exchange from BMW as I have gone for a M135i although I got a good deal on that. Such a shame as would have been a great car for somebody. Maybe I should offer it to the forum for 13k? But they will have to be quick as I pick up new car on Tuesday!

89s do seem to stand & i watched certain cars for 2-3 months whilst i was looking
I don't doubt yours is a good example but if you have been offered over £13k trade in i don't think that's too crazy for a 59 3.0i even with lowish miles :cry:
Good luck with the 1er :thumbsup:

I dread to think what mine is worth ( according to my wife I'm the most useless and impulsive buyer and sales can smell me a mile away) nevertheless all the motors I bought have ran sweet and many years of reliable service, I bought mine AUC back in April 2016 for £15k ... a 73k Mar 2010 sDrive 23i, comfort pack, DSB with Ivory nappa, auto, 18 inch split rims, at the time looking at Internet it was the only spec I liked bar stock speakers only... Since then upgraded the sound, added lux Angels stubby ariel and LCI side indicators ... So far fingers crossed running without a hitch, I do lurk around now and find the odd bargain M-Sport that I think damn if only I waited lol but you only live once after all ! :)

Here's my pride and joy now, prob drop a fair few thousand if I sold it now, but it's a long term keeper anyway ...will post a few bargain E89s if I find anything interesting ....

Only 17 35i's currently on Piston Heads, four actually listed as sold and one a cat D, so hopefully they'll maintain their premium a little more, we'll at least until we sell our one later in the year :wink:

This one's interesting, apparently it's very rare as it comes with matching nail varnish :roll: At least the hands look cleaner than the car's bodywork.

You must have one of the very last 135. The order we have in for one has been automatically converted to a 140, although the collection date was moved from next week to a month later.
Current:
911-50 Black - unique spec
X5M - 575 hp of fun in a V8
Abarth 595 Comp.
Golf Clipper - collectors item
Z4 3.0si Black Sapphire
VW ID.3

Previous:
Z4M Silver Grey - non flimper spec (gone to Bing)
Z4 3.0 Toledo

I saw this one on AT and thought WTF with that pic?!?!?

I then saw the 'boxing glove' hanging from the rear view mirror and I kind of had the image/thought that this car is a 'wide boys' car, thrown about a bit, not really looked after possibly and more of an image thing for him.

Anyway, I knew it wasn't for me and my search continues..........

Looks a bit strange having the silver mirrors on a white car, doesnt quite look right.

I advertised my sDrive 3.0i (59) last year, for which i thought was a reasonable price compared to dealer prices, around Sept last year.

I had one guy who said he'd come and have a look, no show. A car dealer wanted to sell it on commission (checked them out and wouldn't trust them with a dinky toy) Then a buyer for Sytner offered £15K. So with Autumn coming decided to leave it till this year.

I suppose what I'm trying to say is, surprised at the lack of interest in a great car with only 15,600 miles under it's tyres.

Bet TVR's happy with that upgrade.
