Will also include for peace of mind a new sump gasket kit with new sump bolts and Shifter replacement kit (bushes, clips etc

Some scuffs under the front bumper

Purchased in Auckland last November, only reason it is up for sale is I have purchased  another BMW more suited to my needs.

 

Optional extras (wont be sold separately prior, but could take names):

Purchased the M3 Lower control arms, tension arms and headlight adjustment rod

Revshift transmission mounts (80A durometer) – fitted but removed straight away as a little too much vibration for a nice quiet road car.

Be interested hearing from the 130i owners here if I have this priced right as there are only 2 manual 130i's for sale on TradeMe to go by.

Other relevant comments also welcome.

looks fairly priced given amount of maintenance work done.

I think its a matter of finding a buyer who doesnt mind (or prefers) the beige interior.

Probably best to put it on trademe to get more exposure.

Interested in the M3 lcas, tension arms and adjustment rod. 

Pretty reasonable price considering the work done, condition and kms. Le Mans Blue is the best colour imo

Yes, I like the blue also. Will keep you in mind if the LCA kit does not get sold with the car Mr Inferno.

I sold mine a few weeks back for $11K. Very similar to yours in terms of servicing, also mine was lemans, manual, etc but with 18" wheels and 128km. I'd say you're pretty much on the money as far as value goes but they're a bit of a niche car so you will need to be paitent.

Thanks for feedback Blackie.

Yep, figure it will be a slow sale as most folks dont understand how good a manual 130i is compared to a run of the mill 1 series hatch.

Have time on my side as I don't need a rushed sale.

Cheers, John

Well, it has been a month, some interest shown but no sale yet.

Am willing to negotiating on price with any interested Bimmersport members, possibly reduce price on TradeMe in a week or two.

PM me if you want to discuss price.

Headlining now done, lifts the interior nicely.

Cheers, John

The car market seems to be utter rubbish at the moment, and has been for months now. It seems the only real way to sell anything is to auction it, which is risky!

It looks like a nice car, but from what people looking at my 650i with a similar interior have told me, light coloured interiors with light wood are a hard sell, even if I like them myself.

Yes agree Kelvin, not sure folk understand how good a package the 130i is.

More power and acceleration than say a modern Golf GTi etc and still has 5 doors and good storage.

Starting to think I might get the sump gasket done for peace of mind also.

Not sure what else to do other than wait for the right buyer.

Only really have two options. 

Wait for the right buyer at your price

or

reduce the price and create more “right” buyers
