Well, after just 8 months I've had to get rid of the trustly old Audi A3 s line. Great fun to drive with it's magic Dsg gearbox but oh so dull when the sun came out(for me anyway)

and now it's back to a good old bm convertible(yes I know that their ten a penny now). Even in winter,it's just a matter of turning the heated seats on and get that top back...me loves it.I thick it must be a frest air thing after having to get rid of my YZF r6.

BMW > Audi any day of the week for me.

You mind me asking how much you paid for the car? You can pick up an M3 convertible now for around £20k and a nice 318convet will set you back around £18k. Find the right M3, FSH with sat nav and you've got one of the best cars ever made for £20k.

Good choice though, nicest convertibles in the world imo.

I wanted the face lift model(03 onwards) which tends to put the price up by quite abit. I had the 2.5l before and sold that for £12k so prices on bm converts can be lower than most people think.

Then new one's 12 months old and cost me more than I wanted to pay,but this tends to happen every time I buy a car. lol

There is no facelifted M3 one (well except for rear LEDs which you can retrofit anyway) so if you are thinking of taking Rhyzz advice you don't need to look for a post 2003 one!

EDIT: doh, I just realised you already got it, the BMW pic didn't show up last time!

12K is really cheap for a vert, what was wrong with it?
