€2,400 (F90) v €140 (G90) annual motor tax is a big difference in fairness. Yes, in overall cost of ownership, who knows which would be the...

Yes, currently they are in 7% VRT band. Of course unless there is some major VRT overhaul by then (i.e. combined weight and emission system) ...

Cheap to import because they’re a hybrid so lower VRT? That’s a good point, I never thought of that. If F90s started to drop in price...

F90s will have to come down. G90 is selling very well here and it will be cheap to import from UK. Used market will be flooded with them in 3 years...

This seems to be creeping down in value, now with the strange asking price of “€77,777”. I wonder if the release of the G90 is going to push down F90...

I didn’t even notice that! I sold it in Jan 2022, just before the NCT expired. I sold it to a BMW franchise dealer so I’m surprised they didn’t put...

When did you sell it? I’m just wondering how the hell they did so much mileage on it with no NCT Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I thought the original clutch needed doing on my first e39 at around 115k miles for similar reasons, but on my spanner man's advice we changed the...

My old M4: https://www.donedeal.ie/view/38221603 2018 M4 Competition Irish car BMW FSH Looks like the subsequent owner put some serious miles...

Yeah its not slipping and the judder does stop after a mile or so of driving. Maybe a fluid change would be a good first step, cheers.

That price would be ok, i was hoping sub 1k myself. I am giving a lot of thought about whether its worth doing but i do like the car and its had the...

If you're 250k in on the original clutch, and its not slipping, I'd consider not to tempt fate by taking it apart and think of maybe just changing...

A LuK clutch & flywheel kit is €530+ alone and maybe €300 fitting (guessing 4-5hrs) - totally dependent on your chosen mechanic labour rate of...

Thats good to hear. Presume they are in a new location, must try to get in contact with them.

Still going I think https://www.facebook.com/share/b3YkNAN1evq5R9aD/ Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk

Re. VRT - list price just prior to change to CO2 based VRT in 2008 was €89735, so there's a ball park starting point. There's two ways to argue the...

That’s lovely. Would be interested to know the VRT, or how they would even calculate the OMSP as anything other than the price it is sold for, given...

Here's a nice sleeper - a V8 E60 540i lci https://www.donedeal.ie/cars-for-sale/bmw-540i-v8/38191021 Low mile jap import but how would the VRT...

Seems like it's sold again anyway!

“Any value” was a poor choice of words. What I meant was that it might be prudent to assume it will only go down in value, as opposed to lower...

Why do you say it wouldn't hold any value ? There's plenty in the US that have well north of 250k miles on them and running perfectly. I'd rather...

I’d spotted that one alright. If all the important jobs have been done like the ad says then it may well be a good deal, assuming you just want one...
