Do you have a link to it?

Price is very dependent on year, options, colour, condition etc.

Quick auto trader check shows prices from about £6900 - £11,000 depending on lots of variables.

Looks pretty good to my untrained eye, wait for others to give you more advice though. It looks in great nick on the pictures. The wheels look fantastic (not sure if the front left has fading in the middle or if its just the pic).

looks like it is due an MOT according to the MOT checker, only advisory on the last one 22nd October 22 was worn tyres so they may need a better look.

Looks like MOT runs out 13th October but i would expect any garage to add one before sale anyway.

Yup would ask for a service and a clean MOT to be fair, you may not know but any common problems? Other than a BMW :D

Price is in the right ball park..you could pay a little less but you could pay a lot more..

Not many goodies which is typical of this age / model…no cruise, no parking sensors, manual, no satnav/iDrive, basic radio /audio system, no electric seats…

But it’s got heated seats and wind deflector…and USB media support

Engine is just run in..

Classical history of worn tyres which shows it hasn’t cornered hard..

The 437M wheels …I’d check the tyre sizes / makes ..

If you like the colour combo then it could be yours..
We choose to go to on with this endeavour at this time and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard…
A very modified Atacama Yellow 35is :thumbsup:

Looks OK. It is an SE model and looks quite basic so make sure that is what you are looking for.

i dont really know much about issues (as i dont have mine yet), other than what i have seen on here. I will leave you to read those yourself and draw your own conclusions though.

I dont want to give you bad advice, i am not very good with a spanner and obviously no ownership experience. There are much better qualified people on here to give you that advice.

if you are open to an older model but with more extras then have you looked through the forum sales?

Not sure if this is still for sale

The only thing I would add is to check if those wheels are genuine. There are a lot of 437m copies out there, which are not the best quality. It looks to have 4 different tyres on (though hard to see).

Does look nice in the photos, though! :thumbsup:
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

F31 320i. Good car.
E89 20i Now fully dried
Z3 'free litre'. Project and a half. Complicated!
Mazda3 sold
Tatty old R56 Mini Cooper. Money pit!
