That's more or less what I've been looking at. Sound like your buyer got a good
deal. I wouldn't mind putting a few bucks into it.

Our buyer was the local CarMax since that is the quickest and cleanest
way to sell that I'm aware of. Since it was over 10 years old they
were going to auction it off, and I doubt that they made much money on
the deal. I didn't want to be bothered with a private sale and
possible recriminations from a disgruntled purchaser.
The biggest issue with older luxury cars is maintenance. The cars may
be a bargain but parts and service are not.
Service is the main reason I have avoided older luxury cars.
Many small, private garages are limited in their ability to
get parts or even work on them.
Even the new BMW's and almost new Porche I had were a problem.
Maintenance had to be performed by factory trained techs and
the locations are more remote.
It's the reason I got rid of the Mini-Cooper I had for a while.
Our local mechanic didn't like working on them, so I'd have
to drive to a BMW dealer north of Boston for any work to be
done. They were the closest BMW shop that worked on
Mini-Coopers.
