    You may wish to edit your post, it's not clear what you are asking for.

    judging by your post, your buyin going England?

    just remember to budget for the VRT on the extras if its under 4 years old, as an 06 would be.

    i've seen 04-05 models with a high spec for 10-12k sterling.. so maybe 17-19k euro all in?

    Maybe even cheaper than that. A 2005 such as this http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/859781.htm could be landed for under €15k with a bit of haggling. VRT is a touch over €4k for the M-Sport version, surely that covers all of the extras that make an M-Sport?

    that guy actually has so many e46 320cd m-sports up it's crazy.. everytime i check pistonheads, there's pics of cars right at that shed.


    15k would be savage to get that car in. couldn't dare go for a loan with today's job security but some day, i'll own one.

    sometimes no, that car you posted may very well be an M-Sport model, but it doesnt have the optional electric seats, doesnt have xenons iirc, doesnt have the TV / Sat Nav fitted, doesnt have bletooth fitted so it could very well be a basic M-Sport model in which you wouldnt be hit with any more VRT, but if it had any of the above options then revenue can hit you with the VRT on those extras.

    if i was you, i would be in contact with the seller and get the VIN number then ring revenue in santry or rosslare and give them the vin number to get an official quote.

    I imported a 05 320d M sport Coupe just before Christmas but had been looking at the particular model and studying prices for about a year beforehand. What I have noticed is the the price seems to have stabilised somewhat in the last few months. 12k for a 05 or 06 but you will more than likely get it for 11k. About a year ago these cars were approx 17k on average. I think now is the best time to buy as they are unlikely to drop significantly in price anytime soon ( remember this is a diesel sports car with 150BHP that will do 55MPG)

    As regards the car itself try get as low mileage as possible, Personally i'd expect to get one for 11k with less than 60k on the clock. The car itself is amazing, very nimble and brilliant to drive. Mileage is excellent also. 18" wheels and sports suspension is firm but but incredibly involving to drive. You get used to it very quickly. You won't regret buying one of these. A few nice ones here.
