New tyres
New springs

any idea on what's a fair price?

Do you mean M Performance exhaust?
Is it the auto or manual?

It sounds like it has the most desirable options (pro nav and HK), but auto wipers, rear sensors, is all standard kit AFAIK.

FYI, when I traded in my 3 year-old M135i (facelift), albeit with 70k miles on but more options than the above car I got £12.5k for it. I guess private sale I might have got £14k.

I'd suggest the above car around £18-20k would be a fair price. They're not exactly rare, and discounts when brand new were massive.

I think so re the exhaust, its quite noisy I have noticed :D

thanks for info re options

its auto

were you basing that price on my original error age of 2108? its actually 5/17

Nothing like, only a main dealer could hope for that. Trade book is about 17k.

Private sale 18k or so.

so as the resident BMW guru is there anything I need to know about these?

I know they are quite well regarded but are there any reliability issues to look, running costs reasonable etc?

Intention is to run as a work car until I retire so prob 5-6 years and 60-70k miles total

Price wise 17k would be decent but not amazing then (I haven't actually made an offer yet but 17k would be my top line)

Thanks

@Rotty, the biggest issue that crops up with the b58 engine is the oil filter housing, this is exacerbated if the oil changes are infrequent (long life).

They take very well to a remap ;)

cheers, it will be a work car so prob won't bother with remap :p

it's full main dealer history so far, I will keep history up though maybe at a specialist Indy

Sounds like a cracking deal where you both came off good (assuming they would have WBAC or done a low-book trade in).

Let us know how you get on. I was desperate to take an M140 black/shadow edition or w/e they were called. At one point they were £369 down with £369 a month which was nuts and deserved a punt.

Will do

He had 17k p/ex offer, maybe he will go back without the p/ex and try and do better though I find that's not always as easy as people think
