What price do you think 🤔 it’s genuinely worth at this present time ??

Price seems right to me, just look at the europe prices id say as its LHD only thats the market. Then trying to travel into Europe to view one? This seems alot easier!

Its been in the UK this car most of its life, came over in the mid 90's from what i remember in the history and took a year or two from being built to reach its first owner who had it a while and then its been here. Early stuff in the history from Sytners Nottingham. I bought it off an American Banker who owned it for 10 odd years and lived in a gated residence in Kensington. Its got a huge history file, its never been a bad car or not maintained

I honestly don't think you'll find a better one. Hindsight has showed me that this cars not gone wrong since i had it and if id kept it, it would of rewarded me with some reliability, which i wasn't so lucky with in my time with it

Agree with Simon. Someone in Europe will pay that.

Thanks everyone for your comments, the car sold quite quickly but has been waiting for parts to finish some bits off to make it as good as it could be.

Big shout out to Barry @bss325i and Ross at BMR Performance who went the extra mile to source genuine parts as required and get them fitted for us.

As predicted below, there was a lot of interest from Europe (Germany, Belgium, Switzerland and Estonia to name a few countries) but Brexit made it very difficult for those buyers with VAT and import duties to be paid.

Happy to say that the car is staying in the UK (will reside on the Isle of Man), having gone to a very discerning buyer who has owned E34 M5s and understood exactly what they were buying. There was other UK interest but the new owner moved quickly to secure it.
