I had some time spent perusing the PH classifieds over the weekend (what a chore that is these days since they changed it) & I'm pretty surprised the value low mileage e30 M3s are.

All things relative, but a sub 50k mile example appeals way more than a ropey old 964 at the same price or more.

Guys,

Does anyone know of any cheap E39 M5's going? I saw a few at the SS and you know what. I've dicked about, dancing round the edges of ///M for too long. I'd like to switch out my CLK55 for one, for as little as possible. I'd advertise my CLK for £5-6000. maybe i'm dreaming but they are rare and mines in fine fettle, this is bargain basement M5 but hey-ho, funds arent as free flowing since buying out the ex!

I'll keep an eye out but it's a pity you weren't considering sooner.

Not sure if you'd have fancied something like this-

High miles but seems well maintained and for £4k, who's to complain? Shame he's ended up breaking it.

What's the running costs likely to be on one of these? 4k miles a year.

They look lovely but I'm scared of a money pit.

with values going mental, could you not bag a classic range through work? keep it for 6 months and sell on?

I did wonder that but a diseasel Classic RR seems somehow wrong and one car that does 17mpg is enough ta.

A TD Disco seems 'right'.
