Guest Spargo Report post Posted June 7, 2004 A 1990 M325i with all Motorsport options and nothing else cost 65K taking inflation into account, thats around 85-90K in today's money. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Spargo Report post Posted June 8, 2004 Could be worse, dont the McLaren F1's cost $15,000GBP for a service? What a bargain too.One recently sold at auction for £830K. With 30,000 miles on the clock! If there is just one modern car that is valueless. It's the Macca. Please. Don't get me started on it. If you think i'm an E30 anorak...
