Tidy low miles example it seems and is priced well imo. I'd still want an inspection done on it personally as I don't know the dealer. It comes with 6 months warranty which is a bonus, see if you can extend it to 12 months.

Silver is just a great colour on a 4.2 GT.... love everything about that car. Great price worth a look.

Does look a good deal - ok not a specialist dealer, but I recall one with the same spec and colour on sale at a specialist for £10k more just 8 months ago!

They really have started to come down from that £30k+ place where they were stuck for the last 3 years.

I'd live with the red rather than pay 10k more for a similar car with that mileage, subject to a PPI I don't see how you can go wrong with that

Shame. Set of Strad copy wheels from Poland for £1500, drop the suspension to Strad spec and that would be one lovely car.

Not surprised. Must have got it cheap via trade in - still made a margin and sold fast. almost too good to be true at that mileage.
I still think you should go a few ££ higher and get a GTS

You can get a GTS for about 37k but far and few between as most are still 40k.....so 10k more than that 4.2 which is still a large chunk of money if you don't have it.

Have to agree Andy, the 4.2 offers real value for money if you don't 'need' the extra 500cc. You also benefit from not having a clutch to worry about and also brakes are at a fair price...£10k also buys you a good daily runner.

After speaking to the trade I am aware that you can fit the GTS side skirts and a spoiler for about £1500 painted, and an X pipe to give a little more 'vroom', after that you have something that is very close to the 4.7 for 25% less

No doubt that would be a stunning looking car for 3 series money.
I quite like the silver and red tbh

Not seen many silver GT's. Really like it. Because of the big quad German continent Silver has been a really common and over used colour. Really works well on a GT.

Like this one Pete....Side skirts, 4.7 alloys and Larini for 31k. Just boot spoiler needed to finish the look. Black inside not for all but to me seems good value and a great http://www.churchsperformancecars.co.uk/TCQnOocDsovV7d85
