Low spec car, so priced accordingly.

Oh, BMW used site has the spec graph / bar to the max.

Prob going to local garage this weekend to try a N54 57 335i, but it's not the spec I'm after so won't be buying, but need to know what they drive like. All the 335i/135i seem to be up north these days.

They are trying to sell it.....

Other than leather and Nav/Bluetooth options it's bog standard. My guess would be it was a lease car originally, hence the Nav/Bluetooth/leather and no other options.
No xenons and naff standard spec audio makes it hard to sell in used market.

Happy they are trying to sell it, just would be nice if information was accurate. Oh well, will ignore that.

It's an ex press car, I'm staying well clear.

[mikeyscott]

Other considerations have been Audi S3, but some home I expect the RWD drive is much more involving that a quattro

Another this morning, but missing info and £££ compared to the 60 plate

No Xeons, nav listed etc and assume N54 so all in all mm.. Mileage is a lot less, but spec..

Not happy re PX on my 123d so looking to negotiate or sell privately

Someone said to me last night take my 123d to DMS and forget about the 335i.

The 335i I was looking at on a 60 plate hasn't sold, what offer do you think I could push for? £15k - £15.5k?

Think they offered £10k for my 123d M

I would like £11.5 - £12k

Oh the irony. BMW spec on a website being wrong is worthy of a mention, on the other hand you're happy to waste a local dealers time test driving a car you've no intention of buying ?

Back on topic, I had a little time in a 335i recently - loved it compared to my 335d.

Not 100% as the car was sort of on the list, but unsure re spec

34k! You need to get out more,

Yes me too. I'm only on 27K for a Jan 2008 car. Mine has had just regular items so far, Ie oil, plug etc. But I do drive like Miss Daisy. Great car though.

18k since July last year

[mikeyscott]

Well the 335i has sold. Manager kept leaving me messages to ask what I'm after, but wouldn't respond to my calls.. Oh well.

Birds are looking at options for me after speaking to Gordon last night, they might have a 335i touring for me to consider.

[mikeyscott]

Very nice, it was on Pistonheads and they've snapped it up. Seems quite dear, but it's super rare.

That colour, Le Mans Blue, looks fantastic in the sun; I see one of these down the beach on a Sunday morning. Give it a test drive !!

Pretty much my thoughts. Mm Quaife LSD lol

[mikeyscott]

Back considering 130i LE with LSD. Not really "loving my MKV R32"

FWIW I have an alert on A/T for these and an LE just got listed that has a Quaife LSD and several BMW Performance Parts - sounds like what you might want!

On the face of it, it isn't cheap but when you factor in what those bits would cost to put on one that didn't have them to my mind it looks pretty reasonable!

Good luck anyway.

Sold in under 24 hours, I was going to see it Friday, but not the case now.

So MK5 R32 still here

AT & BMW alerts for 130i, 335i saloon/touring
