It has very high spec and low miles but...it is a 2002. Worth £23k!? I would want an 06 for that...

Also where do they find these cars with such low mileage. Clocked?

Blimey, what did the previous owner ever use it for, driving to and from MOT's and services?! What a waste of a great car.

I wouldn't buy at that price. Still way too many other good condition ones out there.

£23k for an old M3? You'd have to be mad

Usually you can tell if a car's been clocked by the interior and general wear and tear. From the pics that car looks genuine - seats, hood, steering wheel etc. all look new.

But a complete waste to buy a new M3 and do 1000 miles a year though!

The car has been serviced twice in 14 years! Lots of very short trips or left standing for long periods, neither of which are ideal. I just don't understand the obsession with ultra low mileage unless it's going to be stored as an investment.

That looks a bargain.

This is the going rate isn't it?

There's a white one out there for sale - £50k

Thread on it somewhere.

Way overpriced and not the best colour/interior/wheel combo either........I'd rather buy a dog rough CSL for that money.

Now I'd probably pay that kind of money (certainly £20k+) for a car in that condition but the two services would put me off...great colour combo on that one....

It's about £15k over priced in my opinion.
