ssbmw 217 Report post Posted May 19, 2009 It will be interesting to watch this one.Looks tidy. Anyone know it? There were two 850i's I'd see regularly see in Auckland which were white. One had throwing stars like this one and the other had the bland looking 16" wheels that originally came with the E31's in the early days... The thing is I can't remember the one with throwing stars having a the rear spoiler like this one. Ridiculously cheap these days though huh? I recall a conversation I had many years ago with Guido from BM Workshop about the cost of running one of these as a Daily Driver. He told me running costs would amount to $10k a year. I steered away from the concept. However, if you bought one of these at the right price and you drove it only on the weekend, could be a value proposition.

Palazzo 474 Report post Posted May 20, 2009 This was at Turners a few weeks back, estimate then was for less than it's selling for iirc. I remember being surprised that nobody posted it up. Usual story with this company, if they don't like the price and their mates can't bid you up, it will reappear citing a bad trade. Looks ok for that money though. $10k servicing p.a. and $4k petrol p.a.and you're away. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
