If she goes for a lorry then we'll still need something practical, so that would maybe be an estate/suv and something more fun.
I'm not shopping at the end of the market where any sort of crash will make a real difference though.
Quit a few of the Collecting Cars auctions do seem to have had their reserve prices lowered (or removed) near the end, but I'm not watching every auction to see if there's a pattern emerging.

WBYC et al. have offered me between £10.9-£11.5k for my 56k miles m235i. Anyone on here fancy it for £12k?

When the reserve is met, it would show as ‘no reserve’ automatically.

Yeah, seen that, and local(ish) too. There ought to be some space on the price as - ignoring the colour - this is lower mileage and comes with some form of warranty, for only a couple of grand more.

I’ve never been in the market for a Ferrari but always assumed they were colour sensitive but it doesn’t seem to matter if they are Yellow with Red Leather or Black Magic !

Hmmm, it appears that I like the yellow on 360s more than any other colour!

Why don’t you just advertise it online for a sensible amount before trying to give it away?
