Car values in Europe

These are the current values in Europe of pure Euro cars. Numbers on page are in pounds sterling, so multiply by 2.1.

A regular e12 commands 5% more than an e28, judging 528i cars so about $22k

Of the Motorsport 5 series, in order of value:

e28 M5 $105k

e12 M535i $50k

e39 M5 $40k

e34 M5 $35k

e28 M535i $28k

e9s are worth a lot, 6 series not so much, not even the M88 M635CSi. This is Europe and after all they are European cars.

The various BMW numbers seem reasonable to me. Obviously condition is a big aspect of a valuation.

Yeah, these prices are for the very best cars. They put down the 2002 Turbo as $200k.

and here are two cars from the page, the 1602 and 2002 turbo from 1974 on TV! :cool:

Nostalgia seems to rate highly in Europe. The 1977-82 Corvettes are only worth slightly less than the C4 King of The Hill ZR1. Regardless of the horsepower, it doesn't have the classic C3 look.

I'd love @ovide's perspective on this report.

Are these values in the UK? If so, I think these are necessarily indicative of values in mainland Europe. The M635CSI cars are worth more in Germany.

Yes, it's from a UK magazine, but seems to generally tally with Europe. E12s and e28s are put down as worth more than any W126 Mercedes sedan, worth more than a W116 six cylinder and nearly as much as the regular W116 V8s.
