I love everything about it, but I don't get that feeling, that buzz when I look at it. I thought it wouldn't matter but it's bugging me.

It will not be going anywhere though unless I can get a decent price for it. I got a good deal on it and would obviously be selling it for less that I paid.

So if anyone is after one immediately then this would be a good buy. It's pre April reg as well so the tax is at £185 per year.

That's a shame. If I hadn't already placed an order then I'd be very tempted to help you out.
I don't need to wait that long really and I got a great deal on my exact spec.
You must be really frustrated. I hope you're prepared to take a hit when selling it on. With such strong deals available on brand new cars I'd be wanting a hefty discount.
Fingers crossed you won't lose out too much...

What type of discount are you wanting

I wish I had these kind of luxury problems. :-)

I wouldn't mind exchanging my Alpine white 520D MSport with Cognac interior for your car but obviously your monthly payment would be much higher than mine and more so I prefer the alpine white. My car comes with visibility and technology packs, folding mirrors, rear view camera, heated steering wheel, remote connectivity and apple CarPlay

I love my car including the exterior and interior colour.

The only reason I am thinking of swapping is because of the negative focus on diesel cars which would probably get worse in the future and I am thinking of keeping the car for 8 to 10 years.

Is it possible to do a 3-way swap through a dealer? if the deal is right I might consider. You could PM me

I don't think a dealer swap would work. The whole point of me swapping is to potentially get back into an M car.

So I really need to sell and start again I think.

This car looks amazing with the full M performance kit!!

I agree a swap is unlikely to work

Mine has the mirror caps, spoiler, grilled and diffuser.

Splitter is not available yet to buy.

I see you have put it up for sale on Autotrader

[BiGFather]

If it was a G31 I would be very interested.

I have been following your threads and was eagerly waiting to hear your review on the Sports exhaust when you had it fitted.....

[ajfoggy]

Taken comments on board and dropped the price a bit. £51,995.

[rekkk]

What a deal at £52k. It's a shame you don't like it. M3 or 3-series are so tiny but are quite the vehicles. You must be hell bent on not liking this car and taking such a loss.

[BMWSKI]

I really hope you get some interest at your new lowered price but I still think that's a lot of money for what is essentially a used car. You can get similar specced 'new build' cars with over £10k off list price so I think you're still aiming too high. I would be hoping for high 40's at the very best.
Good luck.

[ajfoggy]

Bump, Bump.

[nsa100]

Looks you managed to sell it or did you part ex it?
