I'd checkout M3 cutters. That's where the UK lot hang out. The UK thread on the US sought didn't get much footfall.

P.s. as mentioned by Yvette though too much reading on the rod bearing is bad for your health.

Why would a dealer have a warranty on a used M3? Ain't happening unless you buy from Carmax or aftermarket warranty companies.

I wouldn't purchase a third party warranty on an M3. Nobody wants to haggle with them over repairs and be forced to take their expensive European sports car to "Bob's Discount Muffler and Tire" for rod bearings because that's the place the warranty company found to do it cheapest.

guys in the UK they offer a full BMW warranty on a 2nd hand car if you buy it from a BMW dealer. So if anything goes wrong you can take it back and get it sorted under the BMW used car policy
