ive been made an offer for my E39 that is very tempting to take? the guy came to me on friday with an offer (the asking price) to which i declined as the car i was intrested in was sold, then this evening he came back and offered more than my origonal asking price.
dunno what to do? i know i could get tore in to my E30 Cabby with some of the cash and buy another "decent" car with the rest but i think a few of you know i'm quite attached to my E39 .. but offer's like this one are far and few between. ive been looking at a few none BMW's .. Mitsubishi VR4, Shogun's, Audi A4 .. the list goes on but nothing realy jump's out at me? ------------- 2003-530i SE

i'd get rid if you have the chance, then bank the money and wait until something comes along that "jumps out at you" ------------- 2007 Ford Mondeo 2.0 TDCI Titanium X Auto 1983 Ford Sierra XR4i 2000 Alpina B10 3.3 #118 1999 BMW 323Ci 1995 BMW 318i SE 1994 Vauxhall Omega 2.0 GLS 1995 Ford Mondeo 1.8 LX 1990 Honda Concerto 1.6 EX 1986 Ford Orion 1.6 GL 1989 Ford Fiesta 1.1 Firefly |

+1 It could be a while before someone else makes an offer nd even then it may well be below the asking! Never look a gift horse in the mouth as they say! ------------- Current: 2009 E60 520d "Sport" tractor Previous: 1989 E30 320i SE 1997 E39 523i 2003 E39 525i Sport Individual |

Time to move on Ian. The fact that you've advertised it indicates that even you've started to accept this. Take the nice man's money.

4. E39s, no matter how smart, are dropping. Take the money. Buy a cheap smoker, stick the rest in the bank and buy an E60 next year. ------------- 1981 E23 735i 1989 E30 325i Motorsport Cabrio 1989 E24 635CSi Motorsport Edition http://www.bavarianretro.com" rel="nofollow - Bavarian Retro Cars |

it's gone, here's the best bit .. i had it advertised only for one day out side my house (sign on the window) next day i decided "i'm keeping it a wee while longer" 1 week later a chap make's me an offer which was the asking price, i declined, he kept on at me for 20min's or so and i still declined, he came back on sunday (i was just home from Boyd's place) .. chap at the door, straight away he say's right no bull! i want your car and i'm prepared to pay £200 above your asking price ... well after much thought and 2 sleepless nights my E39 has gone, just went away tonight about 7pm the guy stuck to his word payed more than i first wanted and payed in cash i'm off to start another post ------------- 2003-530i SE
