Why so hard to find a decent car??
Discussion
Im looking for a Black, Estoril Blue or Silver/grey E46 M3 Cab or coupe with SMG, black leather, satnav and as many other options as poss. There are none around!!!! Ive advertised in the wanteds for 2 months and looked on here every day for the last month.
Ive got 4 major requirements and thats it. Body colour, SMG, Nav and Black leather.
Im not really bothered about the age. Will take from 02 - 05.
I've got the cash burning a hole in my pocket but no M3's to buy. I thought i would have the pick of the litter with the prices as they are but no joy.

Have tried the BMW Dealers, have had 1 on the case for 2 months and he has come up with 3 cars over my 30k limit and an Oxford Green car. Problem is i cant find the total spec. They usually have Satnav missing or red leather. I havent had a look on bm3w yet. maybe ill have some luck there.
To be honest with you, i dont really want to pay Main dealer prices. Ever since i was accused of stealing my own car from the main dealer when it got stolen when in for a service, i've had a problem with lining their pockets.
They even lost a sale when they took 7 months to arrange a test drive in an E46 M3 when they 1st came out.
Cooper Banstead rang me 3 weeks ago with the Silver grey model at £29,850 and said there was no flexibility in the price at all. Im not paying 30k for an 04 coupe from a dealer when i can get one for 26-27k from an indie.
IMO, main dealers add no extra value and are too snooty for my liking. I have never had a good experience with a BMW main dealer. Their customer service is diabolical.
I have had M3's for the last 12 yrs and only take my cars in for servicing to adhere to the warranty specifications and keep up the FSH for resale. If i didnt have to do that, they wouldnt see a penny from me.

I went to the dealer to see what he could offer to maybe redeem his dealership, he had nothing in his locker.
I bought a porker last june (04 C4S cab) but i wrote it off in Nov. (Standing water). Ive got the insurance money through now so im going for an M3 again and will put the rest down on an investment. I miss the boot space and dont worry so much about depreciation, vandalism and running costs on the M3's.
