Have to sell the BM.....

330ci (Sport)Auto
Black/Black Leather
2 door coupe
21,000 miles
FBMWSH
spotless.

A dealer has offered me £15k, but I've seen the same dealer have older/higher mileage cars for sale at around £17k-£18k. A bit reluctant to advertise on Autotrader, as last time I did spent about £300 without a single call.

I appreciate they will make money, but anyone think this is a good deal?

Cheers.

Well I just spent £5.99 on a web only deal on Autotrader and sold my car in three days Admittedly it was only an £800 Primera, but it's still worth a punt. Stick it on for a short deal at a price above what the dealer offers and see if anything happens. You've always got the dealer offer to fall back on if it doesn't sell.

Hmmm... could be the way forward.

chilli,

Seems a little low, but when trading in they're not going to do you any favours. Have a punt on Autotrader or Top Marques and see how it goes. FWIW, a friend of mine got £14.5k for an 03 plate 325i sport saloon with 43k miles on the clock, against another 2nd hand BMW. I think the dealer could try a little harder!

Appreciate that. Yeah, I think I'll give him another call as well as the on-line Autotrader... I mean he hasn't even seen it yet!

If it has FBMWSH e-mail me the reg and a description, tyre depths etc.

We'll buy it!
