Thanks guys. I would like an idea of how much it maybe worth if the car is mint with full history and without major issues?

The people who are slating them need not reply because that not what the OP is about. I like them and someone is swapping with my BMW so would liek a rough idea of value and not how bad a car they are or whether or not a type r is better etc.

Thanks

People are put off the mk5 r32s because of the stupidly high tax bracket.
not all mk5 32s are high tax costs  :wink:

Ok, most of them are £400+, the very early ones (pre-march 2006) are £280.

We are merely giving you the input you asked for pal, Im not saying don't get one just trying to give you a heads up on that you may find yourself slightly disapointed in terms of when you think R32 you expect a beefy 3.2 V6 which will pack a serious punch when in reality you need deep pockets to run one and there are cheaper cars out there that will feel faster and slightly more fun to drive :)

Hey if I could afford to run a mk5 or mk4 R32 id have one, imho nothing beats the sound of a mk5 R32.
I didn't say the type R was better, however haven driven one a few times, I am yet to find a car that has a better interior they are like a bloody spaceship lol

Not all about figures on a piece  of paper.. a mk4 r32 is a lot more rare to see on the roads and by far a better car to be sitting in then lets say a type r.

You have 4wd and a nice v6 sound ..if you can afford one defo go for it.. as said price varys on r32s mate. . I would go for it if its a straight swap for your bm :wink:

depends what kind of bmw you own but if you think its a good deal go for it we can only tell you a rough price it may be worth as they differ in price  :smiley: but the v6 noise from the milltek is worth it

I have owned a few different cars including (for the Honda Fans - Honda crx sir, crx del sol, civic ek vti, civic eg esi, civic eg sir2, Civic EK9 and also 2 ep3s so know Hondas v v well). I have done a swap on the car and will be selling soon as its a hatchback and I prefer bigger rides. Until then I will be driving it around and my money will be disappearing into the petrol tank. It is mint and the sound is amazing. I had a C5 Audi s6 and this car with the miltek sounds better than that v8!
Amazing sound, quite fun to drive.
If I wanted all out speed I'd spend the money and buy a Skyline with some mods that would be running over 300bhp or a turbo powered motor and certainly would not touch a Honda as they aren't quick unless you spend serious money on mods.
N/A V6s aren't supposed to be rapid, they are about smooth power delivery for cruising briskly and a nice sound.
