What is the cost of a pre-owned BMW 316?

A used BMW 316 costs between £2,495 for the cheapest variant and £12,990 for the most expensive model.

A used BMW 316 is valued at different prices determined by mainly five factors: what year the car is from, engine size and performance, the car's fuel consumption, how many miles it has travelled and the vehicle's equipment variant.

As an example, a newer model with fewer miles covered, or a high-end version boasting a potent engine, often fetches a top-tier price than, for example, an older model with more kilometres driven or with a lower equipment level.

What equipment levels does the BMW 316 offer?

In order to find the best sale price, it is important that you exclusively compare with the deals of cars with the same equipment variant and engine size. If not, you might make a wrong conclusion on which car to purchase.

Is the BMW 316 available with multiple fuel options?

The predominant fuel variant for the BMW 316 is diesel.

BMW 316 is available with the following fuel types:

• BMW 316 diesel: 27 cars currently available with an average price of £7,130
• BMW 316 petrol: 16 cars currently available with an average price of £7,811

When contemplating fuel type choices, reflecting on your driving habits is important. Do you tend to drive in the city or on open roads and motorways? How many miles do you drive in an average week?

If your trips are mostly short, electric, plug-in hybrid or petrol may make the most sense. For daily long-distance driving, the electric car is often ideal - especially with a charger at home or at work. For longer daily commutes, a modern electric car is often suitable - especially if you can charge at home or at work. If you often drive long distances and can't charge, diesel can still be a viable option. It’s worth noting that diesel engines with high emissions are banned from entering cities in certain countries.
