Meanwhile, the 163k Champers II 530i went for £3,400!

I had sniffed out a Champers II at 104k for a smidge over £2k.


I was too late

Where? I'm desperate for one of them

Not the cheapest but looks like its had all the usual bits done, could be a shrewd buy (as shrewd as buying 20ft long, V8 barge gets anyway..)

Oh how I wish I had extra-strength brave pills. Awesome.

[hornetrider]

This looks exceptionally clean and a bargain at 2k.

Like the second one a lot. I forget the exact words of DJRC's 3rd law but I have a feeling post 04 MB may just be OK.

ONLY 85,000 Miles

BMW main dealer service history to 55,000 miles

So what happened after 55k? No mention of any further history?

[hornetrider]

Plus a highly annoying random PDC fault?

Ahm oot!

PDC can potentially be fixed for peanuts, history is only a phone call to the seller away. seems silly to turn your nose up at what could potentially be a good car for something that could be put right very cheaply.

it could, however, be a complete dog turd.

[hornetrider]

I could potentially win the lottery on Friday too.



Sounds like a fair few niggly issues and a bit scruffy round the edges. Plus it's effectively the other side of the planet to me...

If you read the ad it says "In the time I have had the car the following work has been carried out " and he already said he has owned it 3 1/2 years

-For £900 I like!

Very short MOT though.

Agree. If those wheels are not corroded, being in the original polished finish is a very good sign of being looked after.

I am tempted to change mine for a minter (with black cow), but it would have to be a DHP one.

[E38Ross]

just out of question, what sort of rpm are those LS400's doing on the motorway? i take it they have a 5 speed box and not a 6 speed?

Yep, Mk4 (with the Nav) is 5sp. I can't remember the rpms exactly, I think 3000 is about 80? Anyway, you can't hear the engine and it'll be returning 30+.
