Buy it anyway, it looks awesome in white!!
5 series are great cars (F10 onwards anyways), but they are simply huuuuuuge.
And i feel like a 45 year old with 2 kids when driving one. The 6GC however ...
The e92's seem to have a massive fuel tank as well (certainly compared to my M135i & RS3), so i'm sure that helps to give the better range as well. Mines averaged mid 30's around town (40's on longer runs), whereas the RS3 was doing high teens/twenties in the same usage giving about 230-260...
Aaaaaand its gone.

Sarah & i were a little sad to be honest, had some great times in it in the past 3.5 years and it had been in the family for over 10!
Luckily the new owner is a proper petrol head & will carry on to use it for what it was built for, track...

Less grip also allows you to find the weak point in a chassis (& driver) far easier. As an aside, its...
So, possibly the end of an era, i've taken a holding deposit on the Mini :cry:
A chap saw it on M3cutters (as per the R56 fJCW), was looking to build an R53 trackcar and is coming to view it next week.
Its not something i ever thought id do, but without off-road storage, i simply cant justify...
Just read all the updates & really dont know what to say.
Other than, when it does actually finally work, just sell the f*cking thing, its a boosted Clio, it will break as soon as you start to use it in any way properly. They all do. The only one that doesn't fail all the time is the Trophy...
From my understanding, every e36 & e46 M3 has a weeping diff. They were pretty much installed like that from new 😂
I get the roof down in winter thing btw, i only use the Boxster with the roof down, visibility is terrible with it up lol.
