Default M5!!

Not a CSL but I cannot believe just how much money the latest M5 has lost in 3 years. The one below is at a BMW dealer for £28990, thats just over 50%. OK it has high mileage but 30k gets you a 20k mile car from non franchise dealer....These cars will be worth less than a CSL in 6 months time....thats alot of V10 car for the money don't you think.

Same situation across the channel, theses sort of cars are going way down on prices , plenty for sale, less interest and no customers due to petrol hight prices on in pumpstations, registration taxes going crazy (1500£ for a V10 M5 theses day's and 900£ for a Csl actually) and since a few week's there is a new "ecotaxe" on cars.... if you car generate less CO you get a discount but an extra taxe if you generate more CO well you give some extra money for a V10 M5 it's around 1300£....

Yep give it a year and they will be giving them away OK under 25k then.

Others that have been taking a hit...

Maserati Quattroporte can be had for 28k....I had a 3200gt and when I fancied one of these about a year ago you would struggle to pick one up for under 40k.

M6 under 36K also a V8 M3 (2006) was advertised on Pistonheads for under 35k recently...it was snapped up straight away. Think it was from one of these performance car hire companies.

My mate sells cars and has just sold a spotless BMW 630 with 58k on the clock, 2005 with warrenty for 16k....He also has a R Reg high spec/high mileage Boxster for 6995k ...didn't realise they where that low either.

Hoping to see a 911gt3 for under 30k soon Will not hold my breath for that though.
