How about this one Paul?

Seller is a member of some Facebook groups and has done a considerable amount of work: new timing chain, wheel return, stripes, m performance brakes from an F3x. He seems to be a genuine seller but has been getting a few tyre kickers so he’s not renewing the eBay advert currently.

Looks well and like you say has had a lot of work done to it too.. My E63 is Diamond white, so would/could be a matching pair :lol:
Although it appears to have gone up 1k in a year :shock:
Obvs trying to recoup some expenditure....

I’d say he’s still probably loosing at £7.5k. The timing chain is a £1k thereabouts plus the brakes, wheels, general servicing, etc

Bit of back story on #248 if hap has managed to sway your decision yet‽

That has been for sale since at least early 2018 hap, and had been up with the same trader in Newcastle all that time until very recently. Not sure what's up with it, previously owned by Norman I think. Last classified was up at £4.5k.
