No, sold it in 2014 and I hate myself for it. Came up for sale last year for about €5k more than I sold it for :'(

Zero most likely. Non-M Coupe was LHD only.
Was the M52 2.8 before replaced with the M54 3.0 when facelifted in 2000.

99 Vauxhall Corsa
01 Ford Fiesta
04 Ford Focus
07 Skoda Octavia vRS
11 Nissan Micra
06 Honda Civic
04 Nissan 350Z
08 Honda Civic Type R
11 Toyota Avensis which is my current car

I would like to get something that makes a decent noise after graduating, a V8 is still something I hope to check off my list before they become financially unattainable.

Sadly I'm a bit late at getting into education rather than being young

Took it back to the dealer for a refund, thankfully they accepted it with no fuss.

edit/ I was looking at an extended warranty with BMW and found out the service history BMW held had the mileage down as 75k when the odometer in the car said 49k

Not a particularly large list.

2002: 94 Citroen Xantia SX
2004: 99 Mondeo Ghia X 16v
2006: 01 BMW 530i Sport
2011: 08 BMW 335i M Sport
2014: 10 BMW 530d SE
2016: 15 BMW 530d M Sport
2018: 18 Mini Cooper*

*This is basically our second car now.

Fox, been meaning to ask.
What’s your preference? N52 or M54 straight 6?
As far as I can see there are pros and cons to both.
Edit: have you seen the BMW doctor on YouTube? Disgruntled ex mechanic?
