Thanks Slipperyshoe. Would have been nice to sell it a member and someone nearby, but I would have been upset seeing you drive it around!

Do you mind if I ask if you got close to your asking price of £24k?
I've had my MPPSK touring up for sale for a few months on AT, and have had nothing via there other than private buyers generously offering me trade price! |

AT buyer pulled out after trying to chip. In the end I sold it to a BMW dealer via Motorway.co.uk they offered £22k. They seem to be desperate for stock.

Apparently this car is damaged repaired on the drivers side according to a FB post by the potential buyer.
Can’t link the post but it’ on Facebook group: BMW Buy & Sell group! (official) |

I also saw a similar post which was pointing to the AutoTrader advert on the BMW F3X group on Facebook too from a potential buyer...

Thank you for writing a comprehensive reply. Sorry to hear of your experience mate. I’m glad you’ve managed to sell it. I thought I’d mention it as it’ unfair to tarnish someone’ reputation for no reason.

Good on you and sorry to hear as I can imagine the atmosphere must've felt a bit dodgy. To be honest even with the guys replies on the Facebook page he seemed really ignorant and a bit defensive.
Glad you got it sold in the end and nonetheless a cracking car and spec |

Despite insisting on no more than two people he turned up with four others. Luckily I had a mate with me. It was all about crowding and coercion and trying to get me to sign it over like he was doing me a favour. I wasn't having any of it and I think he clocked it quickly and they left. Turning up five deep in a totally knackered e46 had my antenna up immediately! |

Seems like you put some serious effort into the sale, Nick, only to get some nob try it on..
These guys dont deserve our time but unfortunately we are passionate about the cars we sell, put the effort in and they try and take advantage.. Reall sorry to hear your story. And to then get the car slated on Facebook..! Absolute clowns. Sounds just like that 'influencer; thread in the off topic. I had the same a while back with a VX220. (literally the best example for sale at the time, at a great price) Had numerous calls offering silly money, chancers telling me the obvious that it wasnt a Turbo etc etc.. Well no you nob, it's not. Had a conversation with a guy who said if he turned up tmrw with the (lower than I said I'd accept) cash he can drive it away.. I said no, I'd take a deposit and he can have it 4 days later when my new car turns up.. (this fact was also clear on the advert) . 'well why are you selling it then mate if I cant buy it?' He agreed after much grumbling and arrnaged to come the next day. I got home early, washed it and got everything ready. I was already feeling like a complete mug, I knew this was going to go one way. He turned up, with 2 mates.. Intimidatiing chavs. I told him the deal, again, I wont let it go until 4 days time when my new car turns up, as previously agreed.. He then started waving the cash (still 2k under our agreed price) and telling me the car was not all that anyway etc etc.. etc... He left in a hump with his chav mates in a shitty Vectra, I was pissed off. In the end it went to an enthusiast for the correct, fair money.

If not, hang in there, there is a decent buyer out there somewhere. Just might have to bide your time. And don't let Riaz from Birmingham near it. |
