Michael. 2313 Report post Posted February 13, 2013 To increase appeal on the market, I would have returned it to stock (badges and wheels etc) and not included the photos of the M stripes on the bonnet before listing it. Often potential buyers will go for the most stock examples over a modified one, even if the changes are basic cosmetic ones. compared to the current TM listings I think your cars price quite fairly, considering it has the motorsport options which are very costly to install on a stock E39.

Thanks, I think I'll take the dip off the wheels and take some new photos. And ditch the M-sport stripe photos. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qube 3570 Report post Posted February 14, 2013 I think the plasti dipped wheels r all good. "If" I was to buy it then I would have to do it again -.- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tristan 338 Report post Posted February 14, 2013 I think the plasti dipped wheels r all good. "If" I was to buy it then I would have to do it again -.- I've just taken the dip off one wheel because I had to get the tyre puncture repaired and when they took the tyre off the wheel it screwed the dip. Looks stupid with 3 others black, but I like the alloy again! Underneath... So pristine, like the day I cleaned them before dipping. Quite amazing really! Do you want to buy it QUBE. We could make a deal Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tristan 338 Report post Posted February 14, 2013 Relisted: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=563231685 Don't have time to take any new photos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OneSeventy 1 Report post Posted February 14, 2013 You've got enough photos there without the stripes (or where you can't see them) to just completely remove the photos with the stripes in my opinion. Fully agree that people will go for something that looks stock. People who see a car modified in any way instantly think the car must have been driven hard and is probably rooted. Not saying it is of course - by all accounts, it sounds like the car is perfect. Good luck with your second attempt at a sale. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeffbebe 1559 Report post Posted February 14, 2013 I agree with the others on this... I'd make sure the shots with ///M strips are removed and I'd make the shot with stock alloys the default pic. You can say in the auction that the car is currently in stock condition and the black wheels have been removed if you don't get a chance to take more pics. There's another white E39 - a 540 - with similar kms that is on there for double your price so I think yours will then look a great deal, instead of looking like it's cut price because of the mods.

Thanks Appreciate your guys input and have removed stripe pics, made the alloys pic the default. Agree it looks much better presented like that. Have only removed on dip on wheel. Will do the rest when time permits, I've got an exam tonight and another on Monday and am SO unprepared. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If someone wants to give you $10-15K for the car then spend some time removing the dip! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
