What's wrong with the door card?

Pure guess, I compared the interior boot paintwork to a couple of images I had of mine post repair.

Drivers door card looks like its been opened with a size 10!!

I sold this little number fairly recently.
Its not a press car as far as I know and why would a press car be first registered late 2004, 18 months after launch!
I would think its around the £40-45000 mark

Just to confirm: All the press cars were built in 03, delimited and without options eg. no air-con, radio, etc.

Is this not the Irish car that took an age to sell?

Edit If anyone looks at it have a very close look at the bottom of the n/s door as the Irish car had a poor repair, you could see deep rubbing marks in the right light. This could have been replaced though.

When I enquired I was told that the car had been exported to Ireland and now imported back again. The running-in service had been done at 2291 miles. Seller was looking for £47k.

That's the one.

NJ originally had this car advertised for £35,995, it looks like wishful thinking at £47k

That's not true, like your delimited VIN list isn't accurate either.

Errrrmm WRONG !!! Here are the actual facts

All UK CSLs (even the ones with '04 / '54 reg plates were build in 2003 July to December)
RD03 DJJ ... the BMW Press Car used in the T.G Isle of Man video has: A/C, BMW Business CD , rear parking sensors and even rain sensor wipers, same as...
161 BMW part of the current BMW (GB) HQ collection and originally BMW Press Office other press car which also has: A/C, BMW Business CD, rear parking sensors and rain sensor wipers... not exactly option less CSLs are they Neil ?

Hadn't realised this was the NJ car initially

So firstly we thought this may be worth £50k. What devalues it so much? I know it had a late running in service, but surely that isn't over a £10k impact?

Always found it odd NJ struggled to sell it at mid 30s
