E92 AUC M3's for under £30k
Just noticed these below £30k for the first time on the BMW approved used site. Almost tempted, but not quite. Thats value if you can afford the running costs.

M3 is a LOT more reliable than a 335i for sure!!
The insurance isn't actually 'that' much - I am 39 and pay £600 ish for the M3 which is pretty good really inc. all mods declared. Less than £30k for an AUC is really good value - seen decent ones go for mid £20k's on ebay and autotrader - bargain machinery |

The point is that if (more likely when) something does go pop it's likely to cost an arm and a leg (possibly a kidney too).
Having said that, the 335d/i are also going to be expensive to fix when something important goes. |

Personally, I'd love a saloon M3 - doubt I could afford one (and run it) |

There are plenty of late model M3's for well under £30k.. Prices have crashed because they simply are not selling.
I almost gave up looking for the right spec 335i. I was carless for five weeks. Did look at a couple of lovely M3's, but was put off by £435 road tax, group 20 insurance, sub 20 mpg and service costs. Lucky for me I found the right 335i through the BMW dealer network 'eventually' |

I love the M5, makes mincemeat of the M3 on the road!

i wish i had that problem, an 2008 onwards M3 costs 2100 euro to tax for the year over here in Ireland
2007 models are 1566 euro to tax due to being taxed on engine cc, while 08 on are CO2 taxed

Doing some quick calcs on my M3 over my 335i during a year covering 10k, It works out a £1 per day extra running the M3 in petrol costs.

Please don't point out things like that ...... that black M3 is only about 2 miles from me, temptation so close is not a good thing!

Prices still quite a bit higher if your want the more desirable options (EDC, Individual or Logic 7 sound system etc)
