Yes, I saw the car and though 'Mmmm' then I saw the as again and recognised the plate. Mine was parked about 2 rows down. Apart from a new tensioner and exhaust clamp mine is as you saw it! I still ain't had my alloys refurbed but it can wait until I'm flushed!!! Nice sounding also BB76 and cheap, is the warranty BMW? We'll have to have a Swansea Estoril Extravaganza!!! Hehe. |

Glad you managed to find the righ car, good ones are tricky to find.
I've decided to sell mine now.. simple reason being because I want to spend the money on my E30 M3... all the lads went to Oulton Park last month and I felt all left out . The E36 M3 is a wicked road car but not a patch on my pride and joy E30-M3. (sorry all you E36 lovers) Anyway, if you know anyone looking mention my car, it's totally standard and has just been used for next months Performance BMW magazine as part of an article comparing the 3 generations of M3. Decided to buy the girlfriend a mini cooper... anyone know what they're like? http://www.potatotrader.com/m3evo.htm Of and before I forget... I'm on holiday until the 8th of August from tomorrow.

Sorry to post a negative on this subject but DO NOT buy from The Independent Motor Company (Woodern Barns) from my, and others experience, you would be making a very large and costly mistake. Mine was from there and has cost me over £2k to put right.

i must say that £9100 seems seriously cheap, esp with a warranty!!! Just look at Autotrader!
is there something you're not telling us?!!! |

i had the car from slough in autotrader i have done all the checks HPI and bmw dealer check all ok i have even had a really good look under the car and peeled the matts back etc looked for any accident damage cant find nothing the guy i bought the car off was 45 and owned it for 5 years he totally looked after it. hes bought a 02 530 estate fully loaded.and said he was offered part ex just under what i paid by bmw dealer so sold it in autotrader for a bit more. As i said earlier the alloys do need a refurb to get the car mint! |
