Sold BMW E34 525i SE Now sold to scrapper.

[Guest Breadvan72]

Scrapped.

 

 

Well, sold to a scrapper, so to be scrapped.

[purplebargeken]

Ok.

[Skizzer]

That's very sad, it looked much too good to break.

[brownnova]

How come? It made some monies on eBay... Not as much as you wanted, but better than scrap surely!

 

Seems a shame, but it is (was) your motor.

[Guest Breadvan72]

It was bought by a scrapper to part out.

[smellypoo]

Much sadness, looked like a lovely car but not manual otherwise I'd have gone for it...

 

hows the e39?

[Guest Breadvan72]

Unused, because not SD1.

[trigger]

I can't believe it's going to be broke up. A friend had a mint Mk3 Escort Ghia which went the same way last year too.

[Mr_Bo11ox]

What a bummer.

[Guest Breadvan72]

Bimmer binner bummer.

[Guest Breadvan72]

WHAER Will the poar mouze live?

[JohnK]

Shame - it was one of the better E34's out there for sale.

[chaseracer]

Blimey.  The scrappy matched* the £800 offer?  Well sold!

 

[The Reverend Bluejeans]

Offered 800 quid by standard eBay giv U cash m8.  

 

Politely declined.

[Guest Breadvan72]

You can always fuck off if you like.

[The Reverend Bluejeans]

 

I could.............

 

No doubt Tim from Northampton bought it. He'll soon have the disc cutter on it.

[skattrd]

The problem with a lot of the cars we use is that they are worth more as the sum of their parts than as a road-going vehicle..

[Guest Breadvan72]

Some dude in Birmingham has it.

Yes. Good cars are full of good parts, shagged ones aren't. Bloody shame really but I guess money talks. I can't see there's a huge profit in it at 750 odd quid though. I made about 5-600 in the end out of Richard's green one after I decided it wasn't worth fixing, and that was a leathered up 24v manual.

The best one I broke was an absolutely mint Laser blue 1991 525i manual, two owners, 72'000 miles with leather. It was so clean I was washing bits like the digff and steering box with fairly liquid and a hone. Some moron weighed it in on the scrap page shame for a Kia Syphhilus (sic).

 

Matey from Brum is an Asian lad on BMW 5.co.uk, breaks a lot of stuff. Decent bloke, not a messer.

 

Still - car gone, $$$$ in hand, problem solved.

[andrew e]

It's sold. What yer getting next?

[Guest Breadvan72]

Nothing, it was replaced by an E39 that I was given for nowt.

[billyboy406v6]

Has the e39 got a mouse ?

[Guest Breadvan72]

Hope so!

[warren t claim]

It was bought by a scrapper to part out.

Part out? Was the buyer American? Did he ask for a rebate on the sticker price?

[Guest Breadvan72]

The spirit of Pistonheads appears to have infected this place today.

[smellypoo]

What you want is a live-in mate for him. A hamster that wears a blue suit and glasses. Co-incidentally rather like your avatar!

[Guest Breadvan72]

For some reason I always thought that Penfold was a mole, but he's totes obvs a hamster, doh.

[smellypoo]

Nah, the grammar/spelling police haven't turned up yet

[smellypoo]

Bugger - you had me doubting myself. Mrs smellypoo thinks mole as well. Quick look on Internets says hamster though... Although plenty of debate

[rml2345]

I always thought Penffold was a mole as well. Aren't hamsters the same size as mice?

Then again, moles look fecking huge.

Shame about the E34 but that's the way it goes sometimes, at least it'll keep others going.

Onward and upward!
