Wow @MilesP, super clean example

Hi Nick do you happen to know when next service is due and what the RUCs are at?

@m325i alas my flipping experiences never work out well, swap you for a MINI GP? (Joke)

Price reduced $23,500 take it away for Forum members or consider swaps/deals with NZ new recent German cars https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/mini/auction-3748681448.htm

Yup! Eye roll

That interior!!! Love

Whaaaaaat?

“2”. It’s a typo at registration time, ie M325i/2

SOLD

Looks really top-notch, tasteful and gorgeous @Sammo

Hey it has new lights and a great tidy up.

Oh my! Channelling bad-ass ‘80s vibes. Looks amazing

@Bandit that red MT2 went for $62k, after that a couple of charcoal ones with over 200kms went in the early to mid 40s. I think there’s submarkets… MTechs are in their own. That silver MT1 sitting at reduced price down from $70k is a dealer flip I think, he paid around $45k for it in ChCh if IIRC, did nothing to it (including rust on bumper, patched seat trim repairs etc) and took it to Auckland. So far noone has fulfilled his expectations

It is horses for courses and originality, spec, colour, etc all influence things and what someone is willing to pay. A mint and original 4 door can and ? should command more than a rough 2 door that’s a few enhancements, modifications and paint jobs on from its original days. Equally some modifications and enhancements make a particular car worth more. What we do know is mint MTech coupes go for big dollars sigh

Looks really awesome 🚙

Bump

Going to look sooooo good @Sammo

I washed the E30 before I meet the new buyer at the airport tomorrow at dark o’clock, then he is driving back to Auckland. I too use the “good coats of polish and two bucket wash method” @Sammo

@balancerider and @Sammo, a good question. A small phase of financial consolidation and trying to avoid “TradeMe + wine + winter boredom” flash purchases! Depends when the Minge sells too, may take a while. Have been winking flirtatiously at @adro’s E30 and it has been giving me the glad eye on the sly.

All good fella @adro

Indeed Adrian it has sold @adro, it is off to Auckland on Sunday morning. Sold it for bit less than theoretical “worth” which I think itself falls below what I paid for it. Happy enough with the outcome, will be very happy when the GP goes. The buyer did a PPI at Continental BMW which it did well in, which was a worry going into but also confirmed it was sound. I prefer not to sell sight unseen so that gave us both a bit of comfort. Buyer didn’t want the plates Shame we couldn’t get a shoot together with your silver beast

It is cheaper than new, however reflected the niche appeal in the price and thanks for the good wishes @M3AN

Less than 9 months old, Euro plate format with black trims, no holes drllled. $475.
