They would have marketed mine for £39k to £40k, so looking to make 5-6k - had they offered me £35.5k I may have taken it...

No they don't as previously mentioned, my old M3 (2010) is sitting with a £690 mark up.

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure mine would like to take a £3k earner.It started at £2500, but hasn't sold since July and hence the reduction.

From what I understsand most second hand car dealers work towards an approx 10% gain off the price they paid for the vehicle, perhaps dealerships have a bit more leeway with the mark ups/downs based on other factors given they have a bit more scale

HERE YOU GO

BIGTIME · 11-09-2011, 05:18 AM

Cheers for the link. I am thinking of maybe upgrading the 335i to an M3 and know you'd look after yours. Looks nice but I aren't sure about the alloys, which ones are they as they don't look like Csl's?

They are 100% genuine BMW CL's - I still have the £1630 receipt BT

Guys, with all due respect I'm trying to sell my car on this thread, so can you please start your own thread or use PM, thanks

The free bumping is not a bad thing though...lol

creepy coupe · 11-09-2011, 05:45 AM

Sorry Zero, will do.

This week motoring press said used prices firmed up. Hopefully you'll get some acceptable bids soon Zero

Music to my ears, been checking prices again and mine feels as if its priced very well. Had someone offer me a 335d at dealer price wanting mine at private sale price,

ss134 · 11-11-2011, 05:46 PM

My old E90 M3 is up for sale at the moment with the stealers at a £2K markup. Good luck with selling your car Zero - its a very striking colour and rare like you said. The M3 used to be a decent car for resale because of its iconic status and class leading dynamics/engines but in the current climate lots of performance cars are really being hit hard. Some 3 year old E9xM3's are already dropping below 8 year old E46 M3 CSL prices now.I would hold out for a few months - next summer the E92 M3 goes out of production with no new m3 due until late 2013/2014 - prices may pick up.

Zero7 · 11-12-2011, 06:36 AM

Two new rear contis fitted today, fronts have 5mm+

This is a difficult one isn't it. In most commercial businesses, if you turned over £40,000 you'd expect to make a gross margin of AT LEAST 15-20%. It's no different in the motor trade.

No, I don't work in the industry. Yes, it pains me when they seem to take the p**s. I hate losing money come selling time.

Zero7 · 11-22-2011, 04:25 AM

bump.

Zero7 · 11-22-2011, 12:18 PM

OK Lads - Really need it sold, starting new job on 12th December and it will just sit outside a train station getting a 4 mile each way drive (not even enough to warm up properly)..

So, I'm going down the two car route, a cheap car to part at the train station, will consider diesels etc.. and a Caterham Superlight K Series or R300 as my toy.

Price now reduced to £35,995.00

Ant Man · 11-22-2011, 04:21 PM

I'm really surprised it hasn't sold yet. It' a marmite colour so there must be a number of buyers that want the colour. Now that the new 3 series looks similar to the current model (in the pics anyway) and the current M3 will be withdrawn from sale sometime in 2012, I'd like to think prices would firm up and you'd get a fair price for it. But alas, I can't see the economic situation improving until at least 2014.

Zero7...nothing is selling at the mom , but glws

Zero7 · 11-23-2011, 02:25 PM

I really want a cheapish Diesel up to £10k and a Caterham R300 or Superlite.
