No more M3 for a year :(

[m3ben05]

Well, its finally happened.

As a few of you knew, i have decided to put my M3 into storage for a year while i finish uni.

While im a student again i cant really justify the crazy insurance or running costs, or the 200 mile motorway drive home.

Iv known this was going to happen for some time but now iv dropped it off at the garage i feel pretty gutted

Wheile its there its having the engine rebuilt, so its not all bad but i miss it already!

Sorry to hear that, though at least you've not sold it

Will you still be coming down to Aces in your *cough*E36*cough*?

[m3ben05]

Cheers mate,

Yea il still be there for the next couple before im back at uni.

I think il park round the corner though

how can u afford to have the engine rebuit if u can't afford the drive home in it?! poor students!!!

[Zayyan]

I think it's that he doesn't wanna put the miles on it Si. Fair enough really.

I think you will find most students have to pay their way through uni nowadays

Ahh but just think...once a year has passed and you get your motor back....

The look on your face will be a picture!

Shame ben atleast it's in a safe place.

You going 2.5 with cams airbox etc?

[m3ben05]

Simon13 - Its not a question of the cost, its the fact that it would sit on a street up north not getting much use apart from long motorway trecks! I think the car deserves better.

BMK - Im looking forward to it already mate!

Maxfield - No, its just being rebuilt with OEM parts, one day i will have the full 2.5 spec in the car but not using the original engine.
