    Whats it worth BMW E90 320d MSport

    Have I overpriced this car, I think it is a fair price based on condition but I have had very little interest but it is only a week up.
    What do people think?

    There are more expensive ones out there so should I hold out, I am not in a big rush to sell but I would have expected more interest.

    I can't comment on the price point too much, but don't forget its 10 years old now. Personally, I think the standard tail lights, grille and removal of the M badge will help sell it faster. Its the first thing that catches my eye anytime I look at the add. Looks a nice clean car though.

    Hi there, I think your ad could benefit from some refinement for a start. The wording is very cluttered. Change the layout to bullet points listing the features and recent work/pros of the car. The exterior shots are very good but you need interior pictures. Loose some of the paperwork pictures. And I think your price is a tad high so have a think about that too. It is a lovely car in fairness. Hope this is of help.

    I would agree that bullet point adverts are easier on the eye. Especially as many ppl view the adds on their mobile. The amount of info is overwhelming, I would also prefer the standard rear lights and some interior shots would be good. 5 series are making less so price could be hard get but its a great looking car.

    Price is high imo given it's 10 years old.

    Here is one being sold by a dealer asking 8k and that will come with some sort of warranty.

    Another few here asking similar money that are a year younger:

    I sold a similar 2008 one about 4 years ago for 15k and that had low motor tax and was higher spec with leather, idrive sat nav, etc. BTW your advert has no photos of the car's interior either.

    Thanks for your opinion/comments, I will remove the M badge and update the pictures. I'm not sure about the grills and lights but i suppose it isn't my taste that matters it is the potential buyer opinion that matters.

    Don't remove anything if U like what it is ! The badge will not push away any potential buyer . The price might be bit high ,but is somebody will want it ,he will make an offer ,whatever price will be ,somebody will want to get it cheaper .Welcome to offers is main key anyway . U just mist know that it will not be easy to sell car for higher price of there is lot others with lower prices . U just must wait for some body ,it might take ages .When people just really want to get rid of them ,they drop the price .

    Thanks a lot, I see what you mean I copied the add straight from the for sale add I have on the forum and see now that it is not really appropriate for carzone/donedeal. I will amend the add and get some interior shots up. I will also review the price.

    Thanks, yeah I would hope that the grills and lights would add to the car rather than take away from it, its not like they are cheap stuff off ebay. I might add in that I am open to offers on the add. I will hold out for a while longer before I do anything drastic it has only been a week.

    I have amended the add on this and dropped the price by quite a bit and have a few calls but no viewers, am I dreaming at this price or should I hold out, I'm in no rush but I don't want to be stubborn either
