This thread is lacking in taste. The colour is superb, also good to actually see some colour on one.
+1My e61 is the same colour, and the colour was one of the reasons I bought it - as it's not black silver or grey ( or white) like every other car on the road.........

After a years motoring and on 100k can you warranty it anywhere? trade will be 10k tops i bet
You will get more for it in partsGearbox alone is at least £2000
Engine £5000
Wheels and tyres £1000
Brake calipers £1000
Bumpers, wing mirrors etc all all unique to the M5 and worth a bit too.
If it became valueless in the trade I would just break it for spares.

I didn't mind the colour really......
It was more the is it going to go badly wrong and cost me a fortune even tho it's under warranty!
but is that warranty worth 2.5k?It was more the is it going to go badly wrong and cost me a fortune even tho it's under warranty!
could you get a warranty elsewhere that is as good/better for cheaper; then you could choose your colour, and maybe look for lower mileage.
However if you like the colour, and the warranty from BMW is so much better, then I don't see it as a bad deal.

Trouble is its a poor condition one.
You can get a 50k mile minter privately.
I have seen similar cars for £11k private sale.
Plus, I reckon you'd get better service buying privately lol!
I couldn't believe the dire service at the dealers when I went to view. I looked at that and then drove to a private seller 5 miles away and his was £11k and in a better colour and was far cleaner.
£I reckon you're paying £5k plus for a warranty, in effect.

From what I saw of the car it looked genuine for its age and miles. A good detail and I think it would come up well.
Also seemed to have brand new front discs and good make tyres all round.
What made you think it was scruffy?
The overall presentation but I viewed it as soon as they advertised it so it wasn't prepped.Also seemed to have brand new front discs and good make tyres all round.
