Well, arent I happy little bunny. Here is my happy little story.

I lived in the U.K. for two years, donw in Guildford. I owned, what I considered then, the best damn car ever - a 1986 320i. She purrd and fought and could kick anyone a** as far as I was concerned.

When I left the U.K. I sold her for 200 Pounds - NOTHING!! :(

So I got back to South Africa, and thought that I would not be able to afford an E30 again, so I bought a 1994 Opel Kadette (Vauxhall Astra to you guys).

After a while (lets say a month), I wanted to cry. I couldnt stand the bloody thing!! I MISSED MY BIMMER!!! So I started scanning the ads, calling anyone who was selling their Bimmer. I then cam across one guy - He would be willing to swap my Opel/Vauxhall for his 1989 325i, Pearl White, in great condition. He wanted an extra 2000 Rand (150 Pounds) for it.

And that is how I ended up with my current Devil, my perfect 1989 325i... and a huge smile on my face!!

Didn't do too badly there did you? :)

£200 was decent for that car considering it was rolled 8O
