Hi guys, am looking at buying a M235i auto and have seen a couple FSH with 33k miles on the clock 14/15 plates and options for around 19 thousand.. Just wondered if I should take the plunge or is there stuff to be aware of with this model/ things better VFM? thanks!

At first glance that sounds a bit over priced.

For reference - I picked up a 17 plate m140i auto with pro nav, HK, adaptive and heated seats for 22k last month. It was on 20k miles.

Are you fussed on spec? Theres a few 240i on A/T with less mileage around the same price.

Cheers mate, not too sure re spec, these had folding mirrors, reverse camera, pro nav and H/K sound upgrades... I'll check out the 240i

M235/40 are always a few k more than the 1 series equivalent.
But 19k does seem a little bit for a 14/15 plate you should be getting a LCI for that with options

That seems a little steep.

Further to this would a 66 240i with 50k on the clock be better value for asimilar price?

You'll be ae to find one for a little less miles if you look around


It's a buyers market for these.
