Hi all,

I sold my 325 in december and have regreated it ever since, but I'm now the proud owner of a 325 touring :)

I know I've already bought and paid for it, but does anyone know anything about or maybe use to own?? Reg: CXI 2566 Metalic Black / Grey (not sure what the colour is called) touring with biege sport seats?

Any info would be great.

Sounds like the right colour, black, but with a hint of grey. I forgot to say it's got 17" Alpina rep's too. Look at me bragging :)

I pick it up on Friday so I'll post some pics then.

Hi Phil,

Still got the old girl, she's still going strong. Looks a bit different to last time you saw it, with black leathers, deep dish BBS and a Tec 2 kit soon to go on.

Congrats on your new purchase, look forward to seeing the pics mate.

Cheers,

Rich.

:lol: My boy never did tell me where he hid that key. Went to the dealers to get a key cut off the chassis number only to find the locks had been changed sometime down the years :cry: so ended up fitting a second hand set :D
