Where have all the used M6 coupes gone? There are a handful of coupes on the market!

It's a problem with the AUC site. The M6 GC dropped off the other day, came back and are now off again.

Well, could be that once you have one, thinking what you might possibly replace it with for the money is very difficult.. smile 16 plate comp here.

How did you find the ownership experience? what it like to own. I am still debating the M6 vs RS6 option!

Don't know what you're budget is but this is a nice competition pack coupe 5000 miles, I should know as it's mine, selling it through a local dealer.

Let me know if you're interested?

Did you buy this from Sheffield Bmw? If so I nearly bought it, was in amazing condition

No bought it from Solihull BMW at just over a year old with 2000 miles on the clock so pretty much as new condition.

Yes of course, from memory reg plate ending NNY. I thought about the Sheffield one for too long, that went, then you must have just beaten me to the Solihull one!

Now have a 67 plate in Silverstone.

What’s the reason for sale?

Just not using it enough, can clear the mortgage with the sale of the car so a no brainier to sell. Mind you quite looking forward to see what the M8 will have to offer .

Overall been a great car to own, much more sensible running costs than the E63 M6 & it doesn't half go well.

Nice car, noticed it on AT. The price seems high at present.

I will keep an eye on it.

There was a fab M6 Comp pack in blue which went for £41k 2 weeks ago. Great car and a good price.

I'd looking at around the £45k mark for a comp pack car.

I bought the Sheffield car - 1250 miles on the clock. As new, was a proper bargain, especially with ID5 - got CarPlay & ID6 enabled when I found the right tech.

Ownership is easy, as most BMWs - a lot easier than the E63 M6 I used to have which was a handful to drive. Despite having 600BHP, it's civilised in town, and doesn't feel too big. It's fast obviously, and handles well for a big car. I love the interior & the great seats - really comfortable on long journeys for a man with a couple of back surgeries under my belt..The coupe has limited practicality, but I've had 2 in the back for short journeys, boot is big enough but you won't be using it to take stuff down the dump. With a winter wheel set on I was happy driving across the Yorkshire moors in the sleet & rain in 2 degrees.

I remember it well. Again immaculate. Sat in it, went away to think about it and you beat me to it!

As you say easy cars to live with, and running costs all in shouldn’t be too bad
