I wonder what the engine is like? If the mileage is genuine and the motor tight, it's not too bad. (€2k for a good paint job - if the car is mint otherwise, it is only €1k overpriced)
Loose those wheels though, they are simply rotten.
You could do a nice discrete AMG mock up on the car with that paint and it would be a lovely motor.

This bad boy looks mint, low mileage and everything, but 8k for an 8 year old car? Really can't see it!

E39MSport

Nicely kept car, 45k miles and good history.

Better 8k for that than 4k for a banger 20 yo Merc

It's not too bad, fine looking motor.
But his claim of 44+ mpg and 50 if driven carefully seems a bit fancilful.
At least he calls it an M-tech and not a 330d M3.

Also, 3 litre diesel and 184bhp

That's such an old engine alright. The old 330d was a rocketship. Probably not as fast now as the current 320d

M57D30 : 1999–2003

184 PS (135 kW; 181 bhp)
390 N·m (288 ft·lb)

ever so slighltly faster than a 320d

I didn't doubt the figure, just can't understand how a 3 litre is only producing 184bhp!

mullingar

Well 2/3rds of 184 is 120 ish, which is bang on what an 1.9-2.0tdi would have from that era.

Exactly, remember that engine was in production in 1999, 13 years ago.

That was pretty decent output at that time for a diesel.

Anyone else got raised suspicions about the paintwork being wet when the ground is bone dry? Hiding bad paintwork perhaps....

Nope. Car was washed, then moved.

If you are going to go to the effort of washing the car, getting the wheels that clean and then moving it to take 9 good photos, don't you think you would at least dry it to make it nice and shiny?

leaving a car wet, hides all the marks on the body work. can make faded paint look better.

thats why you should try and see a car on a dry day to ensure the paint is in good condition

Very true but at least they washed it. It's lazy but not as lazy as ads with cars covered in filth.

L-M

Lads, be realistic, it's got 200,000 miles on kerry "motorways", it's not going to be mint, but if the seats/steering wheel condition are anything to go by, looks like it could be a very clean motor!

Look gorgeous too, ruined by the chrome thing over the numberplate!

Of course, you're not going to get perfection with 200k on it, was just pointing out the old wet car trick.

Ah yes and the blanked out reg, so you can't do a motorcheck and find the write off, outstanding finance, real mileage, etc...

Is it?

I think €21k for a 2007 335d is actually quite good. Very clean looking car.
