Thanks, man.

Putting the advert up, I'm asking myself if it's a good idea to sell, never get a deal like this again.

Sorry, I copy and pasted updated text from word document.

That was the price I was originally going to list it at.

Not wishing to be disingenuous, but you have the specification listed as 'Spec options', however a proportion of that list is standard kit.

Anyway, good luck with the sale.

Copied from the original BMW advert verbatim.

Don't think you sounded disingenuous, just perhaps a tad pedantic,

have now put Spec + options to avoid any confusion, but assumed most in this forum would know what was standard and what were options.

The vast majority of boxes you could tick for this car that are in that list, so I still think it's a fair representation of the car to say it's a massive spec

given most of the cars I have seen on AutoTrader or the car super-markets have pretty basic specs in comparison and often priced higher, albeit from dealers and with less miles.

Car booked in for first major service on Friday.

Will take some better photos when the sun finally comes out.

Lovely spec, would be tempted to upgrade for the newer iDrive and lower mileage, but unfortunately I promised myself I wouldn't buy another grey car

Good luck with the sale. I hope you get the asking price for it. I need to sell mine but will wait until the lockdown is over.

Thanks mate. You too. Shall miss her, been a great car and still question whether to keep!

OS fronts: inner 5.7, middle 6.0, outer 5.8
Rears brand new done 40 miles so far

Nick340 · 05-23-2020, 01:57 PM

Priced reduced, mileage updated.

ahmedb · 05-23-2020, 02:09 PM

Good luck, took me the best part of 3 months to sell my c63s which went last weekend. Stick in there, times are mad but people are still buying.

This thread makes me realise how much I miss my 340i, amazing all round vehicle and performance wasn't too shabby either.

Nick340 · 06-01-2020, 01:03 PM

Sale agreed!

omegaelite32 · 06-01-2020, 01:56 PM

Good news! Was it someone from here?

Nick340 · 06-01-2020, 04:54 PM

Thanks.

No, autotrader. Seems to be the place to go for serious buyers. I listed on eBay, plenty of watchers but no serious interest.

Now to look for an M4
