Re e21 valuation .Yes but he's a 'carpet bagger' , they werent allowed on the 'register'. If he was a genuine enthusiast (like me with my 4 e23s) he would have joined up ages ago and participated in car club golfing weekends and polishing contests.  His intentions aren't honourable ,he has no interest in the club only in unloading his e21. Such behaviour wasn't tolerated on the 'register'.

A carpet bagger is a Johnny Come Lately who joins a club or a chat board just to get what he wants, like selling his car. they do not contribute to the chat board, they are just looking out for # 1. some chat boards only allow members who have been in the club for a while to advertise cars for sale, to prevent carpet bagging.

Whats the big problem against older BMW's?? There is no way I would consider one of the Chris Bangle things on my driveway, and told the BMW dealer so this morning when I described the contents of his showroom as 'very ugly'. When he found I had just bought an E28, he just shrugged and smiled one of those 'you will never have one of these' smiles. Not caring, can't ever see myself spending 40k on a newish BM. For now the newest I'll have is around 1990. Sorry guys, I like my classics.

Besides, he valued my car at 300 quid. Growl.

Thanks to all the genuine helpful repiers to my question. such a shame that this, being my first try at entering into a supposedly adult forum has met with such infantile responses. My car is NOT for sale but I want to ensure that I have a correct valuation for insurance reasons. My other 2 BMWs are doing nicely thank you.

A big Thank you to Peter whose replies were very helpful.

I will persevere with membership of the Club in hopes that things will improve

You're welcome Henry, don't worry there are plenty of helpful people who use the forum.

Maybe some of you guys should try to be a little bit more friendly and a little bit less bitchy Big Smile

I couldnt agree with Peter more, and wish I'd kept a better eye on this thread.

Welcome to the forum Henry, I think I will close this before it gets any sillier.
Best Wishes

Nigel
