secondhand car market - is it quiet?

Can you not throw it in as a freebee with the €1,000 for the car?

Let me guess... the cost of that is €43,500 for the reading & €1000 for the car??  

Game Over!! Ken gets his mind read, a new car, and no extension for the gaff next year!!

This ones free..... She'll freak..... :)

If your misus loves you she'll be glad that you have bought yourself a very very expensive plaything, and not at all upset with the fact that the house extension that you've been promising her for ages will have to wait indefinitely. And she'll just love it when you take her for a drive and go sideways around roundabouts and on tight corners, smoke the wheels at traffic lights and show her how good the brakes are by slamming on at the last second.

I was being slightly sarcastic. I'd love an M3 (I could only afford an e36) but the misus has other plans.

At the moment I have to support me, her and her stupid horse. When she finally finishes college and gets a job then I'll go for an e46 M3 or similar.

It's okay. You can take me for a spin in your helicopter when you get back to make up for it. I'll meet you in Weston, or you can land in the back garden. (I work in Leixlip)

Don't even go there. No the "plans", has four legs, eats hay and expensive feed, sh*ts everwhere and costs more than a mortgage to keep.

I have that to look forward to. Thats at least 10 years away though. I hope.

I sold my last car in 4 weeks on carzone, but only after reducing the price twice and taking ablout 3000 less than other private car sales of the the same model-it was a 99 316i coupe. I only call i got was from the guy who eventualy bought it.   

I went to the Uk to buy my 325 Ci Sport, as I could not find one in good enough condition or with the right specs in Ireland. I did travel to Dublin to look at one, but after a bit of enquiry into the service history, it turned out that it had been clocked. Advertised as 53,000 miles-really had 113,000... I also got my car for 1500 euro less than what i would have done in Ireland, even after payin for ferry, flights and accomodation for 2 people and 8350 euro on VRT (which is a load of S***E)!

The english know how to look after their cars so it is worth it.. 

On another note:

No more VFR pilots!! Ye have me driven mad in SHA Low level   Only messing, best of luck in Thailand.
