E39 M5's for sale on PH - All Traders, why?

[danielw]

Monday morning curiosity got the better of me.

I've noticed that the vast majority (all) of the E39 M5's on sale on PH Classifieds are from Traders.

Personally, i'd always prefer (and did) to buy a car like an M5 from an enthusiast rather than from a trader.

Maybe traders have bought up all private M5's thinking that the price has to go up? Or perhaps they are hard to sell? What's going on?

Have a look at this private sale from an enthusiast member of a BMW forum:

(I have no connection at all with the seller.)

Sold mine via the forum, I'd delisted it but then someone got in touch directly. I'd watch the sales section there for cars and move quickly the good ones go rapidly.
