    Where are all the 8 Series gone?

    Just doing my usual daydreaming on Carzone and DoneDeal and noticed that there doesnt seem to be a single 8 Series for sale in the country. Even the rough ones that had been online for years seem to be gone. Is someone trying to corner the market or have they all made their way to the UK?

    Funnily enough I spotted two this week green one in howth I see regular enough and a dark blue navy one in sandyford ,they are getting rarer though no doubt about I'd say many have bitten the dust been exported or broke at this stage

    They still look fantastic on the road

    Any really good ones I know of are weekend cars or kept tucked away for the odd blast

    There was 00 D 840 for sale on Donedeal last year for awhile with only one owner and low miles. Took time to sell. It was up for sale a few months ago on adverts. Would have fancied it myself.

    There are a few people with a couple of nice cars tucked away.

    I wanted that car so bad you wouldn't believe, it was a steal what it was advertised for at the time
