Re: 'Sir_Dave's Caged, Cleaned & Toyed-with Shed Trophy Paedo Wagon
Well yes, exactly. Buying an M3 would effectively mean selling the derv & having to mothball the Clio, ie stick it in the barn back home in Cornwall (in order to afford 25k miles of M3 fuel lol). Which im not sure i want to...
Re: 'Sir_Dave's Caged, Cleaned & Toyed-with Shed Trophy Paedo Wagon
Not sure it does tbh, have been driving quite a few e46 M3's as of late, & honestly? The clio feels quicker. Its obviously not, but the M is so smooth & quiet, you have to be doing some seriously licence loosing speeds in...

Ha ha, ummm, i'd be lying if i said that i didnt stop the car the other night as i thought it was on fire :o

Said that he wont drop the price as he's just spent a fortune having loads of it resprayed.
Considering its got easily a grands (2nd hand) worth of fancy bits on it, & loads of consumables changed recently, i think you're a numpty for not buying it.
Next question?
I only raised the question as £199 for a brand new car isnt exactly breaking the bank, & i wondered why everyone who took out the finance deal (specifically) were all jumping ship less than 12 months in.
Cash raising is not an answer btw. Its financed. You're not releasing £15k of cash to...
Shame, they do look like a lovely car.
But as many say, cr4p mpg & a very stiff ride dont make for a brilliant everyday car.
And not everyone has £200 a month to spend on a toy.
Any particular reason for this?
Surely you cant go wrong for £199 a month over 2 years :S

Just seems a little odd to me.
Saner normally arranges one at Surrey Rolling Road in September, so might be worth a pm to him :)
They are independent, so have nothing to prove by giving inflated RR figures.
