Not a bad idea . My man maths added about £5k to my limit on this. Just went too far in the end for me. Strong money! Shows that residuals on these should stay strong if they are selling like that in the current climate. Might have to wait a while longer for my dream car!

Hi Paul. Especially surprised that a dealer is bidding to that level too (bramleys).

Hi Paul. Yes, seems like pretty strong money! Not many about though I suppose, especially in green 😎. It’s a shame we missed out on the two recent sales as they seemed good value. Will let you know if I spot anything that doesn’t meet my spec. Although it’s likely just price that will put me off as ...

Already at £51k (so £54.6k after commission) with 2 days to go. The main chap at Bramleys is bidding and they love their green cars and alpinas. Seems strong considering the one that sold last month for £61k (that included coms) was two years newer and less than half the mileage. None to choose from...

Yes a touring. Looked like a reasonable price at £55k but then a great deal when reduced to £50k. Looked in cracking condition too.

Pretty sure it was late 50’s mileage.

Thanks so much John. Super useful information. Not sure if this is the one for me but great to hear about the G31 from an owner. Although, not much choice out there so you never know. I suspect I would try and get an extended BMW warranty on the one I end up buying just for reassurance but guessing ...

Hi John. Thanks for the advice and information. I’m probably going to keep my D3 to do most of my work miles in but would use the B5 for weekends and trips to France so probably about 10k a year maybe. Possibility I would just use it all the time though but that would be 35k a year which might be ex...

Thanks!! Hadn’t seen this. Higher mileage than I am ideally looking for but maybe I could justify it. Not that well presented with a piece of trim around the fog light missing etc. Also, slight concern about the off side exhaust being a bit wonky (previous damage?). Lovely looking car though!! Wonde...

I’m told there is quite a difference but I haven’t driven the GS LE so don’t know first hand. The chap to talk to is Richard Grace. He has sold 14 of them. I think that’s out of 18 Uk cars. He sells lots of GS’s too so can give you an honest view. I bought mine from him second time round. It’s the s...

Yes I do actually. It’s a brilliant car. Just drives so well. Have you had one?

Hi. Currently looking to move from my D3 F31 to a B5 G31. New child on the way and could do with the extra room (and I love the G31). If anyone is thinking of selling any time soon please let me know or if you know of anyone looking to sell. Relatively open minded on spec/mileage as I think you have...

Seems strong money but as you say, not surprising considering the new model. Keeping a keen eye on pricing myself as I need to get my hands on one soon as need something bigger than the F31. Kind of regret not buying the blue one at Whytehall for £50k last month but not my ideal spec/mileage. #540 t...

Thanks Frosty. Interesting!! Really couldn’t work out if they made it over to the UK or not. Or maybe a LHD
