Certainly looks a nice, clean car. Would be a little concerned at bad english and cash only payment. Have "asked seller" if he has interior pics and what options, will post answer. So many cars out there, so few garages.......... ------------- IanT E28 528, E23 735

Bad english is a result of teaching methods which forbid teachers from correcting spellings. Also, the teachers themselves cannot spell if they are products of the same teaching method. Nothing sinister in asking for cash on collection. paypal take 4% of the payment in commission, so I always prefer buyers to pay cash if they are collecting.

Fair point on spelling, on news today some new "magic" spelling system on the cards, sounds like the old disasterous "spell as you say it" method from what I caught. Not seen cash only before, usually take cheques and PO's as well provided they clear first, though with all the scams and forgeries going it's difficult to know what to do. ------------- IanT E28 528, E23 735

I have asked the seller for various details but have not had a reply. I doubt the seller is serious about selling, or does not want to give out any info about the car for his own reasons. ------------- Philip '86 E23 735iA SE - Polaris - The Silver Surfer '85 E23 735iA SE - Cosmos Blue - VJ '86 E28 528iA SE - Dia Black - Helga '86 E23 728iA SE - Polaris - The CHAV mobile |

I didn't get replies to my questions either, will keep an eye on it and see what happens. Change of plan. just found this in my mail! You asked: Will ask again, even if it's not his car surely he knows if it has aircon etc, bit difficult to miss on the dash! ------------- IanT E28 528, E23 735

I reckon you could have completed the green one & sold it for the same money, or more. 60,000 miles from new!!! An E24 in the same cond. as the 732i would have cost around £5k maybe??? ------------- Philip '86 E23 735iA SE - Polaris - The Silver Surfer '85 E23 735iA SE - Cosmos Blue - VJ '86 E28 528iA SE - Dia Black - Helga '86 E23 728iA SE - Polaris - The CHAV mobile |

Over a grand for an E23?? Good going Rob. She did look like a lovely
motor and well worth what you got for her. So are E23s now an
appreciating classic, and seeing as E28s have always been worth more,
what do you reckon a nice 525e is worth?!

All cars are built about the same now with BMW lacking a bit some times, but in the 80's BMW's and Mercs were better cars Voxhaul have never being near them till recent times I wouldn't say my e23 is slow as quick as the 24v I picket up the other day. I do like them and are very nice to drive, just have Sean some very poor ones at work and going around, thay don't like being neglected. Is this the car with 4 hour spark plug replacement times quoted, good job there long life. I am going for a Overfinch Range Rover Classic with 5.7 Chevy V8 next, all in all Any car is Worth having if it is what YOU wont and thats all that matters, hope all goes well when you pick her up m8 ------------- Mark 735 se 1982 RED BARON A E23 is for life not just for x-mas BMW e34 530 v8 Sport kit Spelling always Bad |
