Bye bye BMW

Dr House · 2 Jul 2008 at 18:39

Well in this market with crazy petrol prices it was a little harder to sell my car than I expected. I managed to sell it locally for just under 37 000 pounds.
The quality of the interior on the BMW was just fantastic; I know that its replacement will not be as good but I will definitely consider buying a bmw again in the future.

The 335i engine was amazing, very very refined with such smooth and constant power delivery (306 bhp from 1300 RPM up). At this point in my life I wanted something a little bit more fun but if anyone it considering the new 3 series and if your budget can stretch to the 335i it’s definitely worth considering.

My old car.

Is it made out of Gold?

I have not closed the deal on a replacement yet however I have 2 very strong contenders, one is 2006 911 C4S or a 2006 911 C2S tip. The only thing that put my off is that the new face lifted model is out now so will hit the resell value on a 06/07 car.

what this

ashtray and cigarette lighter. you can specify cars without them if you're a non-smoker
other wise you'll just get a cubby hole and a cover for the 12v socket afaik

"Price in CZK" should have been right at the top imo, with equivalent GBP.

Your ad unfortunately reads like a scam with the car in Cz., you willing to drive to UK, high value prestige car etc.

He's right

Adjust the price to show the correct price in £

Pistonheads isnt a czech website, so dont ask for the price in CZK. Get the advert to show the ammount in £ you want

Secondly you're never going to sell a car based in prague on an english website. Because every scamster and his dog says that the car is abroad and that they'll drive it to england

Either sell the car in prague for czech money on czech websites, or take the car to the Uk and sell the car for UK money on uk websites

doing anything else is just going to look like a scam.
