I have a face lift E46 BMW M3, fantastic condition and absolutely huge spec. As its now impossible to sell anything in the UK thought I d try an old fashioned approach and offer a close PX (up of down) or straight swap.

The only reason for a change is my wife is pregnant with our second and could do with practicality of Avant whist not loosing fun of a performance car.

Details of my car below - honest straight well cared for car - looking for same!

Hello Contigo,
Yes I d swap direct - if the car was obviously of same market value. I ve taken view selling to buy is hard going in the current market and generally you get squeezed so hard its not worth changing. So RS4 and M3 values are pretty similar so hoping a change might suit someone and a straight swap or a close £'s deal could be done.

I could just really do with the extra doors and easier boot access, the M3 is really practical with great boot etc, its just rear access which is no issue with a toddler/young child, but will be hard going with a baby in a carry/cot type seat.

cheers JM

Believe me a Coupe is a far better proposition after two weeks of snow we have just had!

Would a B6 Avant be of any interest? Brilliant Red, black leather, RNSE satnav + Bose, heated seats, PDC, 56,000, FASH and I'm sure more but I'm testing the water ...
