Soldato
340i removed from sale and i'll keep it until (at least)July/August when i go away with work for 6 months. Couple trips to Germany in the pipeline After a lot of thought and maths and stuff, it just doesn't make sense to sell right now
any major issues with a 2013 F30 320i? read some stories but as with the tinerweb just bad not good, looking to change from a diesel A3 as less mileage
I went to see an s14, quite a journey and it ended up being a complete shed so on the way back we stopped to look at this E36. I made the guy a low offer and he accepted it, so I bought it.That actually looks really nice... Go on tell us the whole story
Age? Miles and most importantly, how much was it?I went to see an s14, quite a journey and it ended up being a complete shed so on the way back we stopped to look at this E36. I made the guy a low offer and he accepted it, so I bought it.
It'll be a good car to get the basics down.
Inchcape(cooper BMW) run a price policy know as Price Advantage.

We are happy that we can say that the car you have enquired on is the best priced car taking into account these details.

Is this the best priced one out there or are there genuinely others for less ££?I'm interested in buying this vehicle and I've had a couple of videos back from the dealer showing the car in detail and the service history.
Everything looks in order, I've got in touch with the dealer to ask about negotiations and extras that they might be able to offer, and I've had this reply:
Is this sales guff? I'm assuming so.
Interesting how they've mentioned extending the warranty however. I'd be keen to get an M perfomance exhaust and 2 years extended warranty, if they're not budging on price.
I've also found the ad on AutoTrader and it's been live since the 1st Sept this year, and they've responded to my queries very fast.
Wondering what you guys think about the price and if they'll likely move on it?
If it helps, I'm paying with a bank loan rather than PCP.
Email back and state that you do have a query, namely the price

Its a very well spec'd car, in my experience dealing with BMW used approved they have very little wiggle room to negotiate with. They prefer deals on new. You might even get a better deal taking their PCP then immediately settling the finance with your bank loan. If you're happy to gamble on losing it, then wait it out longer as they will often reduce the price if its stood for ages.I'm very keen on the car but paying sticker price or equivalent isn't something I want to do again. I just wonder why it's been for sale for so long.

I've had a quick look on AT, and there's no equivalent car that's cheaper listed on AT (search criteria 2014+, < 20k miles, 3l engine, trade sales only) with this or similar specification.
However, what's worrying is that there is a 2016 model with 11k miles for an extra £1k:

It's a manual, so may not be to everyone's taste.
In terms of negotiating the price, unless you're doing a trade in, there's really no incentive for them to drop the price. You may be able to get a good discount on warranty and other services, though.
It sounds.... difficult.Anyone on here done the retrofit from the smaller screen to the 8.5 screen with the sat nav etc. Been looking around and I can find places that do it, all miles away from me. Thinking of doing it myself but I need to get it recoded, and I will lose DAB. The benefits wil certainly outweigh the losing of DAB.
If anyone know somewhere in Scotland or the north of England that can do that, can you let me know please.
thanks
it's not an easy DIY project but it certainly can and has been done counteless times since 2013 when NBT first came out.
These guys seem to be very good, and they even do F30 6WB retrofits. https://www.facebook.com/GACoding/
