If its all good and dandy it might deserve and m10 and a half! (aka m30...)
Be the same price as a supped up m10 in the end anyway!

Old one will be forsale soon for about 20pence

gwnley

this is the ebay one isnt it. i had an eye on this, but wasnt going to bid without having a proper look at it, shame, as it was only in swindon. alas i have a couple of other turds to sell at the moment, so pointless taking on more cars.

good luck with it.

Jon yes it is from ebay, went a bit higher than i thought....

Haven't looked at it but I think there is just about enough on the add to say that if it isn't as advertised i just walk away!

Just bought a Ãƒ”šÃ‚£3.50 bus ticket to swindon from london so not exactly going to loose a lot really.

Besides the Air con is worth a bit what ever!

cheers

Sounds like a nice one Gwyn. My last 325i was a South African import too, lovely motor and came highly specced. Even bought it off the original owner as he brought it over with him when he migrated to the UK!!! Air con is pretty much standard over there unsurprisingly....

Going to pick it up tommorrow, looking farward to it actually!
Haven't bought a car in about 4 years!
Hope its all alright.....

Oh yea the m10's up for sale....see my sig
