The sad thing is that snobbery and second hand values go hand in hand. People buying second hand cars are immediately faced with the fact that their 'New' car is already usurped by something with a newer reg. So the 'D' reg has an importance to them. It's kind of like not being considered a yokle or something (No offence to country reg's).
That other BMW I mentioned in an earlier post is a KY reg so it's immediately less attractive a proposition than the D reg car that helen origianlly asked about.
It's a mad world...but there you go!
That BMW looks like a mint, the only thing wrong with it is the D reg!
It seems a fair price alright...but I'd say that if you can't afford it don't buy it.
There are too many nice used cars out there that you will be able to afford. I suggest you offer him whatever it is you actually can afford and if he won't or can't accept it just walk away.
90k miles on a 02 'D' reg looks strange to me.
Give me a 02-C-UPCORK. reg any day!.
I think I'm bitten by the BMW bug.
Thanks to everyone for their help so far.
Hi
Best of luck with the new car. Re the bank, you can just walk in and withdraw from your account (bring ID such as driving licence).
One thing worth checking when you go to the bank - to avoid horribly long queues for cash, check whether the cash desk will allow you to withdraw that amount. You may have to go to customer service instead of the regular cash desk (I've no idea why???). This happened to me recently (taking out the cash for my 1.6 VW Golf as it happens - and I love it!) and the bank had no sign up or anything so after 25mins in the cash desk queue I had to go and start again at the Custr service desk.
(The cash desk wouldn't give out more than Eur5k)
Happy driving

I rang the seller back and offered €12,500 for it but he said no. When I asked him for his best price he said he'd sell it for €13,500 cash.
If this is the car:

Then I think he's had a rethink about the price

I did notice he dropped the price about a week ago. But I ended up buying a 2000 316 saloon with from a friend of a friend of a friend for 11,000 the week before last.
I'm amazed he hasn't sold that other one yet. It's was a really nice car at €13,500 let alone €12,500.
