Only 40k for this one and another 20k to make it right [emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787]

I think I'll stay waiting 🤣🙈
crazy thing is any M3 that's imported now will end up costing 30-40k by the time import fees and VRT is taken care of :eek:
Surely we're not anywhere near those prices for an imported one, it should only cost an extra 5k onto the price of one last year from the uk and no extra to bring one down from the North. I still think you could have a decent one in for mid 20's.
There was a fella in Galway who imported 3 very clean smg ones from Japan last summer. He sold two of them and kept one. The two he put up for sale were both silver grey, one with 78k miles for 19500 and the other with 65k miles for 22000 cleared. UK prices should be on par with Japanese stuff now so maybe going to Japan would be a better option at least you wouldn't have to worry about rust.

How much roughly would a VRT be for e46 m3 today? 20k+ sounds like an awful lot of money for an old bimmer there is not even that rare.
Edit: just had a look on DD for e46 m3 and there is sweet f all!
7k or so before Christmas anyway.
Then it's looking like they're going on the OMSP rather than the sale price of imported cars to calculate duties so that's another 10% and 23% onto it again.
So lets say you buy a good one in the UK for around 15-18k. VRT brings it upto 22-25 grand and then duties add the same again you your up around 30 grand when all done :eek:
Age and mileage seems to have a big influence on the vrt cost. Just speaking from experience I know a fella who brought a 03 one in last March with 121k miles and paid 3200. The fella who brought in the Japanese ones said the vrt quote on the 03 one with 78k miles was 4500 and the 05 one with 68km was 5500. These were all SMG's so probably a lower OMSP than a manual.
I think a member on here brought a manual one in late last year and VRT'd it for 5k.
The days of getting one for 10k are definitely gone but I think the market is silly at the moment and people are trying to capitalise on brexit. I think once the dust settles prices will start to come back down. Either way I'm just happy I bought my one before it went mad.

In that case I d just buy high mileage that been kept up with all the jobs, then it should work out cheaper and best case.
Surprised there is not much for sale at the moment.
Maybe due to time we are living in now. Everything in pause state, as you said waiting for stuff to settle. I assume that would be the case for all performance cars.
I doubt e46s will come back down in price tbh, they’re only going one way in the uk
