    dear wig,

    pls can you clarify your abbreviations for the price breakdowns for me, sorry I am a rookie.

    I have registered online at bca - am looking for a new shape bmw 320 d sport or SE. suppose it depends on how muich they go for.
    The thing is when I view the cars available for auction it shows no guide price - what am I doing wrong.
    I also see along of pdi in the description - does anybody know what this means and does anybody have any wise words to offer ?

    I am very keen to know what these cars sell at in the auction.


    many thanx in advance

    Hi Everybody,

    sorry I am a rookie at this auction stuff and need some help.

    I have registered online at bca - am looking for a new shape bmw 320 d sport or SE. suppose it depends on how muich they go for.My top end budget is £12k but I would rather spend £10k. There is a bmw group auction in bridghouse soon and i would like to attend but am not sure I can.
    I have registered online, standard subscription and now realsie after reading this thread why I cannot view prices. Can anybody advise on what I can expect to pay on a 2006 320d SE or 2006 320d M sport ?

    I also see alot of pdi in the description - does anybody know what this means and does anybody have any wise words to offer ?

    I am very keen to know what these cars sell at in the auction.


    many thanx in advance

    pdi = pre delivery inspection. Which means that is all that's recorded in the service book. So i'm guessing that you're looking at new ish stuff...?

    As for the RET - Retail price.
    TRD - Trade price.
    CLN - Clean CAP (As it sayd, clean car)
    AVG - Average CAP (As it says, average condition with a few bits of tarting up)
    BLW - Below CAP (a right !!!!!! hole of an example)

    Also, as with any BMW with the magical "sport" word in its description, us lot in the trade go mad for them and will pay up...! So if a private man gets involved, its more fun for us and the auctioneer lol.

    Hi all

    Hoping somebody would be kind enough to check one for me if possible - quite a rarity, but hopefully there might be something going over the next 2 weeks.

    Looking for a Volvo Bi-Fuel (LPG, but factory fitted). Don't mind if it's an S40, V40, S60 or S80, but must be LPG...BCA or Mannheim as I can travel!

    Thanks
