What's it worth?

I'm looking to buying the following car and trying to find out how much it's worth?

2011 E90 330d sport manual
Cloth seats
84,000 miles
FBMWSH
Professional media pack
Usb
Electric folding mirrors

Any ideas? Mileage is high for the year.

Thanks. The seller's lowest price is 12800 and I've offered him 12250.

I'm just concerned with the mileage. In a few years time it will be over 120000 which may make the car hard to sell.

It will definitely sell no problems there but depreciation will be high

12.5K should be decent price.
If you ever plan to remap it then go for auto. Much more better and can handle extra torque /HP.

Was gonna say fairly high mileage for a car only 3 years old, knocking on the door of 30k a year.

Last 3 cars i have bought have all been 3 years old and under 55k

Yes agree, but that's why the price is lower.

For a similar vehicle with 60k miles, I'd be looking around 16,000.

Problem is buying the higher mileage newer car, come to selling time your stil trying to sell the higher mileage newer car if you see where im coming from, so you buy cheap and then have to sell cheap.
Everyones different but i would rather buy a car a year older with less miles on the clock than newer with more

As long as it's been serviced properly then the mileage isnt a problem. Cars like to be used and one that has sat around could be more problematic than one that had regular use

Ideally would prefer an older car with less miles but problem is that there a hardly any 330d manuals about. I think I'll keep looking.
