I wouldn't think so, it looks in good condition and will be a genuinely desirable classic car. If kept in that condition for a few years and it won't be losing any value anyway. You'd have gotten similar cars for cheap during the bust all right but them bargains are long gone now.

It's well kept. But it's automatic. A tad too far from the magic 30 year mark.

Leathers have been fitted at some stage, the trim doesn't match around the centre console. Non standard exhaust (quad tips are smaller or there are twin 3' outlets for some TT models)

Serious inquiries only... and ruins it with such a crap last sentence!

7-8k at the very most would be my view. I've seen manual TT's go for less than 5k, which have the rare as unicorns hair RB25 box the drifting community go mad for

I should know the value of these cars, I have one myself

Am I alone in thinking that's pretty damn cool? I mean, I hate the B pillar but look at the room, and the gadgets, and the V12...

The only thing that can't be changed is the pillar

The BMW L7 is the ultimate barge.

Most of the right hand drive examples are in Singapore and the likes, from what I have read.

I was expecting that example to be a lot more expensive than it is.

Things like this really bother me. People like this are making E30's unaffordable.

This is the one of the least desirable E30 models made.

I expect nut and bolt restored ones for this price

If not, this guy is very dillusional!!

Perhaps, an extra zero was added by mistake.

People who buy them are setting the price. It seems pricey, but that's the problem when you live through a cars life cycle,
they start high,
become affordable,
become affordable to the wrong type of people,
depreciate to nothing,
become undesirable and old hat,
then they become rare,
increase in value
Go back to what they were worth decades previous
Become crazy money.



That's still a nearly 30 year old 2 door BMW. Who wouldn't want one on classic insurance and tax?

That e30 is a few grand cheaper than it was when wc posted it I believe. Still big money though.

smash

That e30 will only go up in value.

Be that as it may, his pricing is insane. You would pick up a similar spec/mileage version in the UK for between £5-7k (€5.8-8.2k), VRT is a shade over €2000. So, less than half he's asking and you're on the road if you're really after one.

If you're feeling really daft, you'd even get a 5.0 V10 for £6695

Amusing how the latter part of the ad segues into a description of outstanding work ... to be done by the prospective buyer!!!

Rear suspension 100%, front bushings need replacement withing couple of months time, I don't recommend changing wishbones in authorized service as they ask 2.5k for one front side investing in bit more expensive polyurethane bushings and having it done by replacement is what has been suggested. Same time I would change rubber dust cover at front coil-overs and access is only when wishbones removed,

But not to worry, it's ...

not a big investment.

Just as well, eh? ... seeing as funds may be a little tight after your wallet has been lightened by €19,700

Nct until 2018 according to the ad.

Still overpriced though.

Ford sunroof... As opposed to what? A normal sunroof?.
Steering wheel that matches the dash now there is a reason to burn 8.5k on a 08 petrol mondeo.

90% a bentley maybe the 6.0 petrol engine is...some people really are dreamers!
€20k for an 11 year old car - maybe €7k if even being realistic.
