keith1200 Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Good Move Paul About 3 years ago, I was thinking about buying a similar BMW! Then thought to myself! for the same money [running costs etc]? Buy myself a new wee 'ultra cheap' Micra (for running aboot in) and the money I've saved vs running a BMW? pays for mi Manta Two for the price of one BMW? Bankers and Bandits me thinks Cheers, Keith PS 'braw looking Manta you've got there' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantaray80 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Nice Manta Paul. Got my long term project hopefully finished next year. But then I say that every year. At least I have some incentive now. My son has just bought himself his first car, a Nova, and wants to have it running for next years PVS. I recently looked at a BMW similar to that. 318SE, 9 years old, full spec, all the toys, leather, FSH. Took it for a test drive and I couldn't honestly see what the fuss was about. My Calibra V6 was 11 when I bought it, no service history and it was a better drive (better screwed together) Gone off BMs now..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
