For sale local to me in Scotland 2006 m3 convertible.
45k miles.
Full service history. All main dealer except last one done at well known specialist
Just had inspc 2 done.
New tyres
Specialist said one of the best condition he's seen
Smg
Fairly loaded. Usual. Sat nav. Mem seats. Hk sound.

Carbon black. Red leather.

Does have 6 previous owners but in saying that it's bloody such good condition I am not bothered by this now.
Needing help trying to know what the value should be and will be in say a years time.

I would probably want to pay £11- 12k max for that.

Despite the mileage / age, anything higher and you are in CS territory.

can you get a CS in convertible form?
I thought it was worth around 13k.

No convertible CS. Its Scottish, so beware of rust.

Worth around £11.5k now with the Spring Premium but depreciation should be modest if you keep it in great condition and don't put on too many miles.

Lol that means all the people asking silly money at 12k plus are just mental. Baring in mind they are for total dogs too. This was the only one I found in excellent condition. Think I might just hold out for an e93 then

If it's excellent and the only excellent one you have found then why not buy it?

I think the suggestions so far are on the low side. A late model, pristine with full service and such low miles is probably £13k privately and £15k-plus at a dealer.

I never said you could.

Just merely pointing out that once someone starts to pay above £12k for a standard M3 (Convertible or not) you could step up to a better derivative of the m3 (a la CS)

A 45k mile CS would be £18k-plus these days.
