Nick_MSM Posted September 11, 2006 Posted September 11, 2006 Right chaps, Decided to start advertising (the car) casually for the moment to see if there is any interest? As I've decided I'd like something a little bigger next year. Spec:- - 2003 on a 53 plate - JDM car, 1 owner in UK (and imported by myself on 5k miles), all papers etc. - Plenty of tax, will be mot'd next month too - 17k miles (UK service book, was serviced here at 9k and again next week at 17.5k) - Good condition all round - 19'' Racing Hart rims and toyo rubber (3k's worth) - Tein lowering springs - Speed racing front and rear valances, side skirts, - Type R aerial, de badged at the back - UK rear bumper - Alezan, climate, heated/leccys seats etc all the toys bar Sat Nav. - Top of the range Alpine cd player (cost £500 odd) mated to Bose system. Very sorry to be selling her, and I'm in no rush to do so (if at all really!) so I'm not prepared to listen to daft offers. Not sure what it's worth but it is a truly stunning car - make me an offer. Would listen to a p/x with an E46 M3. Asking for £18,500 which is a bloody giveaway, won't take a penny less. Up for £18,950 elsewhere which is still a fair price IMO.
lomoto Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 May fare better Nick with a guide price??? I hate asking for a ballpark figure from a seller
Nick_MSM Posted September 19, 2006 Author Posted September 19, 2006 Sorry - Yeah, I'm not sure what to ask to be honest. I'm willing to listen to offers although one joker has offered 14.5k, cash bless him suffice to say that is some way short I really want an E46 M so anything around the 20k mark would seal a deal - if it's quick!
Liam's Z Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 Good luck with the sale and also your business Nick Sorry to see you go mate, stick around
Nick_MSM Posted September 20, 2006 Author Posted September 20, 2006 Cheers mate - I will be sticking around, probably go Jap again soon (fancy another Evo for a weekend basher!) so if you all buy some nice designer furniture I might be able to run two

Rob_Quads Posted September 21, 2006 Posted September 21, 2006 I recon you would probably have more chance of shifting it and making the money you are looking for by returning it back to standard as your looking for a fairly old premium over standard. Good luck
Nick_MSM Posted September 21, 2006 Author Posted September 21, 2006 Probably right mate but I don't have the time, as said above I'd take around 20k for it which judging by what people are asking for in the papers seems fair to me. Might throw in the original Rays wheels too
Rob_Quads Posted September 21, 2006 Posted September 21, 2006 I agree its a fair price but the market for that sort of car is tiny.
AndyC Posted September 22, 2006 Posted September 22, 2006 Having seen your beauty in the flesh mate I'm sure its just a case of actually getting it in front of someone, as soon as thats done she'll sell herself. Good luck lad and I hope you'll be staying around
Nick_MSM Posted September 25, 2006 Author Posted September 25, 2006 Cheers Andy, I'll be staying around I'm afraid
Nick_MSM Posted October 5, 2006 Author Posted October 5, 2006 Would listen to offers around £18,500 as I really need something bigger - this is very cheap now IMO?
Sarnie Posted October 5, 2006 Posted October 5, 2006 Would listen to offers around £18,500 as I really need something bigger - this is very cheap now IMO? Have you had much interest?
Nick_MSM Posted October 5, 2006 Author Posted October 5, 2006 Not much no, although I have only put it on a few forums - I'm stingy and refuse to pay £55 to autotrader Did have one joker offering £14k though Am offering to dealers as a make weight against a car so really any offers around £18,500 I'd gladly listen to. Not got the time to put it back to standard. Sign of the time times hey!

Not got the time to put it back to standard. Sign of the time times hey! Have you tried eBay? Gets you loads of exposure there although you do get people offering you stupid money for it. You get more offers after the auction closes as well (Well I did). My auction ended below the reserve but the winner contacted me and we negotiated a price and now he is a member on here
Nick_MSM Posted October 5, 2006 Author Posted October 5, 2006 Not tried it yet mate, will look into it cheers
Nick_MSM Posted October 6, 2006 Author Posted October 6, 2006 Should say that is a one off price on here only Car is now on ebay, already had some interesting offers so we shall see
AndyC Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 Should say that is a one off price on here only Car is now on ebay, already had some interesting offers so we shall see I bet you have! What you mean some muppets offering threpence and a badger?
Sarnie Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 already had some interesting offers so we shall see Told ya mate
Lugger Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 Thanks mate fingers crossed Hello from Worthing!! Have put a bid on your car to get things moving for you. As soon as I get outbid I am out of the race (boom boom) as I don't have enough cash to keep bidding. But I thought we could get the auction started, best of luck :kicking
