That will throw it on and off but not on solid. TBH I think your plan of action is spot on

I personally think you havent done yourself a favour by actually working it out. If you just got the car you wouldn't really know how much extra it costs, plus as said you have to hand it back. If you got it now would begrudge it slightly as it costs more? Il be honest I don't keep track of deprecation or how much I have spent on mods as it would leave a sour taste in my mouth. I know it's not crippling so im ok. IMO if you can afford it which according to your sums you can and you don't mind that money being gone then go for it. you can't put a price on fun

Remember he is running double the power and torque of you or I.

Is there not anywhere that can give/make you a strengthened box?

Post to the year TBH

9. I love when I can use girls lip balm. tastes, smells and looks awesome! Ive tried lip gloss a once aswell. It slidy but looks great.

Its hit and miss TBH. My brother had a 306 1.9td and a 106 gti both which went wrong all the time. My 172 has been in the garage less than the german cars its shares the drive with. Ive done 40k miles in it and its great. Powerful too and will average 35mpg.

Yup - I know am dreaming with the Pug - looks like it'll average 30mpg and the BMW isn't much better Its going to end up being a freakin Focus or a Fiesta isn't it? the 1.9 engine in the e46 is terrible. High mileage BMW's arent really expensive to maintain at all provided you dont go to bmw. The 320i wont be to bad on fuel. I still think 182

I think thats a good gesture. Sucks if you lost that in business but is good of it didn't even affect you

The diesels problems are high maintenance. Egr needs cleaned and or blocked. Inlet manifold needs cleaned as they are dirty. Crankcase breather needs a new filter or changed for a vortex style one. If the turbo breaks or you need a clutch and a DMF you are no better off than before. £1000 is alot of fuel. If its short journeys I wouldn't recommend a diesel. It kills them. A diesel will be higher miles but BMWs carry the miles very well.

Why naming no names? What if someone else buys the same?

Personally I wouldn't get a 318i. They are so underpowered that they aren't great on fuel. Generally the BMW 6 cylinders are the ones to go for. 320i and up. Have you thought about a 330d or 325d? If your doing alot of miles they are great. What about an odd choice like Clio 182 or E38 728i or maybe a Golf gti/tdi?

is that not an SL?

Are you our Scotland go to guy for wrapping then?

I like to listen to my engine and that's the whole reason I wouldn't buy one. A sports far should sound sexy, not rough like a van Sounds alright to me.

Ive got a triptronic, I think its great as generally im going or coming to work. But when the feeling takes me sport sharpens it up or triptronic is great on the b roads. I actually hate driving manuals now and my next car would probably be auto too.

Diesels are great for commuting not just because of their economy but the torque makes them quite effortless and quick round town. Go for a test drive, you might love it.

Yes 993,996,997,991 plus a few more are 911's. 986,987 ZAnd 981 being the newest boxster. The other 2 are boxsters too.

Would it not be worth getting a bigger diesel like a slk350 cdi and sell the zed?

Would love a 996 turbo with x51 is it? They are still expensive. They don't look that hard to work on either. One day

I'd only use a badger brush tbh. I've used a synthetic cheapish brush it was gash. I've used pure badger which is good. My main brush is a super badger. A silver tip would be better and plusher but they are serious money. You also get boar hair brushes but I haven't used them. If your getting a brush you ideally need to use it with a good cream or soap. Shaving ones that is, Gillette gel won't cut it first timers should try Taylors of old bond street cream as its silly easy lather and smells awesome. But I now use Mitchell and woolfat. It's harder to lather but it's cheap, good for your skin and slick.

Maybe you was driving it like a rwd car? I've heard they have a lot of grip buy then it's not a out and out performance car. The r32 engine was never really powerful enough to warrant one over a remapped gti and the 4wd and engine make it fairly thirsty for a cruiser IMO.

If your keeping the 350 why not see if a c class is the same price? C class's handle very well and can feel great too. They are also plush enough if doing the motorway grind. The 56mpg and performance would tempt me but IMO a roadster isn't about going fast it's about the feel, the smells, the feeling of being outside and the sound! It might sound ok though?

Most clio's come with wheels that have very little gaps in them do this wouldn't work?

Saw you on arbroath road coming into Dundee. I waved and flashed but I wasn't in my 350 so I don't think you looked.
