BMW V10 values going up?

[Schermerhorn]

Last month I did a little price check on www.webuyanycar.com and they offered me £13,000 for my BMW M6. Now, I know that is ridiculous so ignored it. So this morning I did the same check again, ticked all the right boxes and they offered me £18990.

It's a 68000 mile car with 2 year AUC warranty and a full service history but it's got me thinking, if values are starting to go up for these beasts - as long as they are well maintained - perhaps it's worth hanging on to ?

Oops

Confession time

I accidently put 6800 miles instead of 68000.

Is there an age limit on the warranty?

Not sure but I do know there is a mileage limit which is 100,000.

Have been keeping an eye on the V10 M5/M6 values and they seem to be holding steady. Has anyone sold an M6 recently? How was the selling experience? I have an itch to change mine for a newer M6...

Holding steady in terms of advertising value

Reality is that they are still hard to shift. Hardly any AUC cars now and very few still under warranty so any bills will be quite high.

My selling experience was very easy when the right buyer came along (an enthusiast) but it was on sale for months will lots of people taking the p*ss which made it frustrating; bear in mind my car was a full AUC prepped car, with warranty remaining and just about everything done to it as well; clutch, flywheel, throttle
actuators, new brakes, tyres etc etc etc. And it was still a mega headache.

My experience was the opposite with my M5. I got my asking price as it was sold within 36 hours of going on sale.
A few days later, thinking I had sold it to an enthusiast I found out it was a trader. He had it up for another £2k on his forecourt and it sold again inside 2 weeks.

Yours was a desriable white one with the red leather and the M6 wheels if I recall correctly? It was a unique looking M car in my opinion and you did very well selling it so quickly.

Other more 'standard' spec cars can be abit harder to move as there will be plenty out there with matching colours, specs but lower prices etc.
