Now I really need a tourer for the dogs and my budget was 11k, but I stumbled across what appears to be a very good value E90 335i, 60k miles at £12299.

I'll admit that you can find 335i's for down in the 12-14k region now but all seem to have been halfway to the moon and lack sat nav or leather, Therefore this 60k miler seems suspiciously cheap...pro nav, auto, leather...

Clickly to see bargain 335i

What's up? The fact that it's an SE with the unfavoured tree trimming? Should I just get it bought?

Twin pipes aside, in that colour with those wheels and a careful removal of the rear badge it's potentially very 'stealth' too evil

Cheap indeed! Better jump on it before someone snaps it up - that is half price of what it would be in Belgium!

Yep - looks like good value to me - perhaps because most potential 335i owners would want M Sport trim - if you're not fussed then it looks like you might pick up a bargain!!

No such thing as a free lunch, the price would make me think there's a story that's not in the print, so take a very very good look.

Could be a bargain, but I'm such a sceptical old ba$tard these days!

That's exactly what I was thinking (the first sentence, not that you are a sceptical old ba$tard of course winkbiggrin ) .

Cheap, but could need 2Ks worth of paint, discs, tyres, servicing etc etc, given it's seller.

I did a bit of googling on the seller. Not quite as bad as a well known dealer with the initials B M and W but buyer beware nonetheless...still, it looks ok in the photos.

Think I will opt for an E39 540i for now and, in a year's time when there are more about at that kind of price, look again for a 335i maybe.
