I'm actually, finally, properly looking at buying a new car to replace the E39.
I'd love to buy @Dammit 's car but the problem is that in my opinion, it's at a strange place, it's had all this amazing work done to it and it's in a near perfect condition. It's only worth as much as it is because it's in the condition it is. If I buy it, within 6 months I'll have knocked 75% of the price of it because it'll be faded, it'll be dirty, it'll have picked up car park dings, and my kid will have smeared banana over the back of the passenger seat.
I can't afford to lose £5k in value, especially not to just using the car.
The right buyer is someone who will use the car but will also lavish it with care, attention, and garage it. So not someone who lives in Zone 2 and lives in a 3rd floor flat.
I'm thinking of buying this instead:
