been offered an 07 4.2 supercharged with less than 60k on the clock. rusted on the arches, some lacquer peel and age related scuffs.

£4500.

what do you think? should i go for it? mileage is genuine.

Silly not to with such low miles as long as the rust isn't to bad

There’s rusted arches and it has side steps so not sure what condition is like under those.

I’m thinking it’s a good price for such low mileage and even if it needs a bit of bodywork it’s still a decent price. Am I wrong? What am I missing?

good price only problem like fuel lots

its a good price, im just concerned about how much the rust is going to cost to repair. I know little about bodywork pricing in Essex and dont want this to cost me thousands. one arch has gone through inside of the door. The other side is more surface. i need to go back and check the sills to see what condition they are in. As a side note does anyone have a contact for welding/bodywork in Essex?

A different take: Budget £1,500-2,000 for the rust and it doesn't look as good any more. Without pictures it is difficult to say for certain, though.

I wouldn't let the low mileage sway you - buy on condition. 2012 Vogue TDV8 in Aintree green over sand

As long as it’s not made of rust from front to back and it is an MY07 I’d say that’s a bargain. I sold my 07 4.2 a few weeks ago for £4k with 140k on the clock! 2005 E60 M5

What do you mean MY07? it has a different dash to my 06 plate. the key up high on the dash (the 06 i have has the key in the centre console. it also has different headlights.

Yes the Model Year 07 or MY07 have a totally different interior, cooled seats, electronic handbrake, much better AC, terrain response, key in the dash, twin glove boxes, Better cup holders etc They are much more up to date for me. 2005 E60 M5

only issue is the £800 tax

if i can find someone to repair the arches then ill buy it. i need a little independent, but they don't seem to exist anymore
