Yes, so a shitter then 
Be like a 51/02 plate... 70k+ and no options
19s, HK, SatNav+ TV are all MUST HAVES on M3s if you ever want to recoup anythign on them!

There id buy that myself if I had the funds available just now!!
Youd be just like nik but obviously not holding down as good a patch!!
It's hardly gonna plummet in value from what you pay for a lesser specd one for no apparent reason is it
Cosmo's minted anyway he'll just give it to his butler if he can't get rid again.

To put it in perspective, i stopped to look at one the other day at a local garage (Indy), 53 plate, 48k, all the essential options, £25k... was there 2 days and sold!

Oh year it would be nice to get one all singing all dancing I admit, but if I only had (only ) 16k to spend I wouldnt be put off with that, im sure a lack of TV & Nat Sav wouldnt put people off buying it off me 2 yrs down the line as it would be priced accordingly!

Exactly, the more they get into average people's range the less essential the ponsy options will become when cming to sell.
Cosmo, aren't you?

To put it in perspective I dont want/need a TV in my car & ive got a nat sav I hardley use I can hide in the glovebox, HK is lost on my i'd rather listen to the engine!
I do get what your saying bob, just if 25k's not in my hand id go for a 16k older lesser spec one without a second though!!

Yeah but the thing is, with M3s you need to consider the person you sell it on topo as well... but I suppsoe you both have a poitn in terms of as they fall in value people will be less bothered... but histroically its always been the case with the m3s

I do hear what your saying & your right, im just saying the cheaper option shouldnt always be underlooked. That one I posted up looked good, I admit at that age alot have done >100k however there is some that look like good cars. Youd have to tread carefully but theres still a good car to be had. Resale wouldnt be a problem, in 2yrs you'd sell that blue one for 12k or so no questions asked!! Your newer specced one would be worth more its all relative though
