For sale is my beloved 2010 330i MSport. I have recently bought an M4 so I would love this to go to a nice home.

It was a BMW Approved car, only has 28k miles on it and it has been really well looked after. It has been serviced at BMW three times.

Spec wise you won't find a better one anywhere in the country.
It has the Pro Nav with hard drive, red leather heated seats, parking sensors front and back, bluetooth, paddle shift, and also the official upgraded Alpine component speakers and amplifier.

I've attached a few pics here when the car was in the showroom.
The car is now for sale at a friend's garage in Cuffley, north London for £17,750 but all serious offers will be considered!

Is it over priced?

Some perspectives...

Most people here already have an E9x.
The market has a lot of highly priced E9x up for sale that haven't shifted.
Decent spec F3x 335i's cars can be had for sub £20k now.
2010 E9x M3's are below £25k.
Also it's silver, so not really sought after colour.
Considering these were rolling out the factory for £28k in base spec before production ceased, and there is say £5k of extras, £17750 seems a lot for a 5 year old car.
DCT 335's go for less than this.


My personal opinion, its a £16k car tops, with the right buyer.

Thanks for the input djgandy.

Looking around I don't really see many 330i's for sale and I thought the straight 6 engines were held in higher esteem than the 335i twin turbos??
The car itself was 44k list but appreciate it is a 5 year old car and may be over priced by my dealer friend.

The 330's are not far off the 335i in price, but generally aren't worth more.
The list price doesn't really mean a lot because most people pay a lot less than that. As a point, M6 list prices are around £100k, but savvy people pay around £75k and even if you just walk into a dealer I'm sure there will be plenty of "dealer contributions".

If it was July, you'd probably get a lot more interest, but in December the car market is dead for sports coupes and buyers really have most of the power.

i do not believe a 330i is worth more than a 335i, wasnt the case when i was searching. Also time of year you will be hard pushed to shift a motor now... as dj mentioned you will have a much bigger audience in July.

Appreciate the comments guys!

Looking at Autotrader I don't think it's terribly priced, but I will be getting it reduced again in the hope of drumming up some interest.
Being December isn't helping for sure!

[djgandy]

It's a nice motor, looks in great condition and well specced. But it is the old model now, and the NA engine as nice as it is, is not the top spec engine, nor the top spec NA engine available in that shape.

Sadly these things only depreciate, unless you have a low mileage M.

Just incase it helps, I bought a 2010 E92 330i almost identical spec to yours in white with factory tints - list price £45k. I paid £13950 private sale in August for it with 55k miles. The previous owner had the BMW warranty on it which I continued at a discount so it's £36/month for fully comp warranty.

I'd have thought yours was worth £15 -16k due to the mileage and the condition though? Normally as long as they have the 313's and Nav these sell fairly easily for the right price

The thing is you can compare it against autotrader but you also want to look at how long those that you are comparing the price to have been on the market and which have sold. I personally dont think a 330i is more desirable than a 335i nor worth more. but then thats just an opinion for whatever it is worth. As stated by other people your close to 335i LCI prices and very close to the newer FXX 335i.

cool, what was his cut?

[Gooner_M]

He's a good friend, but I'll sort him out a very nice drink out of it!

[pmmcbl]

Wow you were lucky to get that much. You need to get him more than a drink.

Yeah a good deal, although lucky because his friend is a dealer (+£1000-£2000) and he gets that extra dosh.

[ariskar]

Well done mate!

[Gooner_M]

Cheers guys!
I was ready to drop the price but he said January was his busiest month so to give him a chance. He delivered!
