Any updates on car ? Great pics, great pair of cars.
How did you manage to pick it up for just £15k (m3) ?
Have you fitted a CSL airbox yet ?
Yeah, nearly had the car a year now - it's been great so far, covered about 9,000 miles in it. Had the wheels refurbished, but no other issues with it. Only costs have been petrol which has ranged between 19-28mpg per tank, average is about 24mpg now.
Needs new tyres in about 3 months, along with an Inspection 1 and Insurance in July, so I am getting ready to brace myself for those
.
My intention is still to keep it for a long while yet. I'd love a CSL airbox but can't justify it atm.
£15k was about the going rate when I bought it last July. Values don't seem to have nose-dived like I thought they would. I'd hazzard a guess at it being worth £13.5-14k still, but that's with it being a year older, nearly 10k up, nearly 10k on the (previously new) rear tyres and with no BMW warranty any more.
Both stunning, but why do the seats in the M3 look like bodily organs?
They were cream, but they're stained red from when it killed its last owner
As for it being common, I'm not really too fussed. If I wanted a car that stood out, I woudn't have chosen one that was painted in Accountant Grey. Personally I think the interior gives it a little sparkle and the car does, to me at least, still seem like a very special overall package.
But then again, you're comparing it to an Orange Exige which was owned by a flash **** who now drives a Ferrari
