Hi all.

Not intending this to turn into a positive / negative review of the car, that has been done to death.

I tend to buy cars 6-12mths old and keep for around 3 years, latest being a 2010 cooper S.

Clearly the M135i has caught the eye. I can get a well specced one for £30,000 6mths old with a couple of k on the clock. What do we think it will be worth when it hits four years old and say 50,000 on the clock.

It's a big engined petrol, but it has rave reviews and some m division heritage. I suspect it will hold its value better than a 130i, but I may be wrong.

Place your bets, a four year of M135i with 50,000 on the clock, decent spec, good condition. I would guesstimate 13-14k.

£11k is my guess

Yes, new/newish cars generally lose about half their value every 3 years.

That's the 2 cheapest 135i at that mileage / age.

They are obviously Coupes not hatches.

I do hope the M135i will be £11k at 50k miles but I doubt it very much.
