BMW E90 3 SERIES M SPORT SELLING ADVICE

[francismichael90]

Hello All,

first post here and I am after some advice.

I am looking at selling my 3 Series which i have had for just over 12 months and I wanted to get some advice on what I could expect to receive for it.

The car is a E90 3 Series M Sport Business edition 2 litre petrol. It is a 59 Plate first registered in 2010, it has had 3 owners including myself. At current it has done 58'000 miles and I bought it at 39'700, all my miles have been motorway miles. The car has 19" M sport alloys powder coated grey, it has full cream leather interior, Bluetooth, sat nav, I drive, heated electric seats, Xenon Headlights and a few other extras included in the business pack.

The car has 11 months MOT, it has recently (2000 miles ago) had its major oil service, a new rear inside tyre, it has had a new chain housing system fitted and new abs sensors and reluctor rings fitted and recently the front brake pads have been changed. The alloys have been refurbed so are free of scuffs or marks. It has up until the last service had full BMW service history, but i went to a independent BMW specialist for all the other work completed.


I didn't want to go into too much detail as this is not a car ad but I wanted to gauge where I should be pricing it when i come to sell it. In my head i have a figure but i wanted to check I was not way off the mark.

I appreciate any advice or guidance you guys can provide

I think the general advice is WBAC then add a bit for private sale but not as much as a garage sale.

I'm in same boat likely to sell my f10 530i soon and will be going with that approach.

I think it's more a question of where to advertise... autotrader or Ph, or both.. etc.

Cheers

I usually check autotrader, eBay and here for cars of same age and spec, then price from there. If you want a quick sale, list it lower then the others, but not too low that looks dodgey
