Look great Nick and matches nearly all my requirements, only my last two cars have been silver so am wanting something different preferably medium grey in colour, black or blue.
Shame I could of had an excuse to visit Romford, as I used live at Harold Wood in my early life before moving to the chilly North.
Re Autotrader, although you can publish adverts at any time, I've noticed it still gets a big influx of cars on Thursday, presumably for the paper edition that's out that day?

Just to say have narrowed my choice down to a 3.0 coupe preferably in Grey with mileage of no more than 70k, so if you've got one and thinking of selling please let me know, patience is nt one of my virtues !

They really don't pop up on the forum all that often as people here seem to like holding on to their cars so probably worth ebaying
But flicking through ebay and you'll definitely have to travel!
this cheeky number has the proper spec (only missing the stupid pop up sat nav that opens when you skip a song)

otherwise

if this one is carbon black then it's the one I would buy, even though it doesn't have cruise control or xenons and the owner is too lazy to fill a stone chip with some touch up paint

Silver can look like grey if you squint when looking at it (We've reduced ours to £11k)

Thanks Jeffers, I am keeping my eye out, that one is great but above my budget of around 10k, ideally with less than 60k miles on. There was one on Autotrader a week ago or so with 45k miles and was at 9.5k. Prices seem to vary wildly for Coupes even taking into account milage, most between 8k to 12k on autotrader. So I'm just holding steady until I the right one comes along.

Hi Craig,
Just noticed this one has been reduced to the top end of your budget.
I know it's nowhere near you, but it looks like a good one and I love the Individual interior - plus I'd rather buy from a forum member than off A/T, etc.
Link here:- viewtopic.php?f=41&t=89598
Unless of course you are looking at E89s as well now!
Good luck anyway.
Cheers, Iain.

Hi Iain
Thanks seen that one don't want a silver coupe though as past two cars have been silver, that's still leaves blue, black and grey though !

No problem, although I do like the interior.
I had a silver 1 Series for over 6 years, and what colour was the first Coupe I looked at? Silver of course - so I didn't go for that one.
If you get really lucky you may find a red one - good luck anyway!
Iain.

Thanks Iain, though my alfa romeo brera was red, so probably rules that one out - not that I'm picky !!

No, I know just what you mean - there just weren't too many colours to choose from on Coupes!
I knew I didn't want silver or black, but got impatient and bought my first one in Ruby Black - told myself it wasn't black really, but most of the year it was!
But I'm much happier with my Montego Blue.
If you have some patience I'm sure you'll find what you want!
