Sadly she has to go....any advice appreciated

UK_ · 06-25-2014, 04:01 PM

Evening one and all,

Well, England are out of the World Cup (boooo), Suarez bites again (wtf??!!) and the M4 convertible is soon to go into build (I am sooo excited)

In anticipation of her arrival, my beloved and lovely F30 has to go. Yes I went crazy with the spec when ordering but I have loved every gadget and every minute behind the wheel, best car I have ever owned by a country mile.

It is so hard to write private ads and pick an attractive but sensible price so if anyone has any (constructive) advice then I am a receptive audience. If anyone wants to buy her or knows someone that does then feel free to also get in touch.

I'm no expert on price but seems like a lot for your money. Best of luck selling her.

Getting rather jealous now having driven the M3 now. With roof down in Sport + mode it should sound bloody awesome!!

I'm really looking forward to seeing pics of your M4 when it arrives.

It might just be what I'm interested in when my just bought 335d is ready for trading

Thanks for your advice Guy. I am driving the M4 for a day soon, I am sure it will make me even more impatient.

Wow, you will notice a slight performance difference between a 320i to an M4!!

I am dead jealous of you!

All the best with the sale of the F30

True Dickie, but on a cold wet winter's day I will no doubt miss xdrive too.

I think the price is pretty fair. Maybe 1-2k over but when people negotiate you will have room to manoeuvre. Everyone loves haggling!

Looks a good advert to me. Well written, nice pictures and not loads of waffle.

I think the price is in the ballpark but you may find that you need to come down a little if you are not generating interest.

Good luck with the sale and enjoy the new car!

Thanks guys for your positive comments. Saying good bye to a car is always emotional for me, all those times we spent together and all those places we've been.

A good car is more loyal than a woman!
