The time has come to sell my 750, but i have no idea at what price.
Its in pretty good condition for its age (1997 R plate) 2 owners, 108k miles. Last serviced a few weeks ago, including new discs and pads all round. It an Individual, in Biarritz Blue, with every option, including double glazing and the latest Mk4 DVD based sat Nav. Anyone got any ideas on what price to market this beauty at?

Many thanks smile

For some odd reason it seems that the market price of 740's is higher than 750's. This is one reason why I bought a 1997 750i SWB, 130k miles, blue, stamped service book, sports seats, etc. which doesn't sound a world away from yours? And I paid £2,000.. which I reckon was probably cheap. (In actuality it was really cheap for what it is - i.e. a V12 ubercruiser ).

My feeling is that they sell at less than £5,000 - between £3.5 and £4.5 depending upon condition?

Thanks Buzz, i'll have a look.

Daniel, i reckon you got a bargain at £2k, well done!

I'll be looking for a relatively easy sale, do won't want to price myself out. You've been helpful, thanks

Certainly sounds like it. At £2k it's almost disposable.

Given the condition, mileage etc of mine, i guess i'm going to look at about £4k for a no messing about deal. Here's fingers crossed smile

Really?

I've yet to see any car that genuinely has every option, although a great many people say theirs does.. wink

I am curious about the indicator comment, are indicator problems common or is it just mine smile

Ski bag?
Buffalo Leather?

I'm pretty sure xenon's and the widescreen sat nav weren't available at 1997, so I take it the car has been modified?
