Breaking/selling 335i advice

Hey guys, looking for some advice please.


I have a 2008 N54 335i Le Mans blue with sunroof, idrive, I think it was a fairly high spec model.

The car needed a new water pump, at first I had the hump and was semi set on getting a new car and then decided to sort it, then when fitting the new pump one of the bolts snapped. The missus said maybe it was time for a new car so I obviously took that option before she changed her mind.

So I bought an M4 and the 335 is now in a yard an hour away from me, I haven’t seen it in 9 months and I’m also trying to restore a 3rd car that I’m paying £100 a month storage for.


So the 335 needs to go, What sort of money are the parts worth, I’m considering removing anything I can get off in a weekend and then selling the rest or scrapping it. I’d probably always regret scrapping it though as it was such a good car, I wish I’d fixed it instead of buying a new car but it’s done now.


The car was also under warranty for 10 years so had torque converter, both turbos, boost solenoids, coilpacks, injectors and high/low fuel pressure fuel pumps fitted approx. 30k ago.

I also had new window rubbers fitted 3 months before I stopped using it, that was a £1900 job at BMW haha.





Here’s a list of parts fitted from memory that I can remove.
  • M Performance Exhaust
  • Downpipe cats
  • Secondary cats
  • New Turbos 35k ish miles ago
  • Turbo smart re-circ dumpvalves
  • Large Front mount intercooler
  • BMS filters


  • Headlights
  • Rear lights
  • M performance rear diffuser
  • M3 alloys
  • Mint steering wheel
  • Shocks and Eibach lowering springs
  • Piano interior black trim
  • Jade grey full electric/heated leather
  • Black grilles



Is there anything else that’s worth money on these cars? Or what sort of money do you think it would be worth as a whole?
