Funny you should say that, yes the indicators did but the rear side lights did not! Bit odd…

That's a good buy - was it particularly high mileage?

We are looking for something about that price to replace my sons '08 Volvo V50 that got written off by someone turning into him Censored .

Insurance valuation is no where near the price of replacement vehicles at the moment and he is struggling to find a decent German/Swedish estate for under 4K Surprised

Yes reasonably high at 170 ish K but the BMW 2.0d lump seams to be bullet proof for some high miles… The car drives very well, that of a 70k model I would suggest! 👍

I was in that situation a few years ago. I took the insurance company to court, the judge ordered them to pay the price i was asking or find me an acceptable car. Dont accept low insurance offers. BMW i3 Electric Car
