    congrats on the car - you're mad of course ! - but aren't we all ?

    Can we say the recession is over now ??? :D:D Normal service will be resumed momentarily !!

    Ode To The Motorist

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    It's the silverstone one, in the flesh next to my 335 the colour is very different.

    I just did a round trip of about 60kms and it's a blast. Almost 0 degrees at the moment so I wasn't pushing it really but the roar off it is just :D

    Congrats Mark - best of luck with the beast - I think a few of us always felt the M3 was always the likely winner - I bet Joe Duffys will be pi$$ed they couldnt do a deal ..( I also look forward to your thread in 6 months time when you are changing again:D)

    Hash - I did think about the grey one WW reg and all (!!) but the combination of the colour of mine with the carbon fibre roof made my mind up.

    fitzgeme - The interior has the extended leather and it's nappa all over so it's very comfy and I missed heated seats so much.

    Cheers for all the comments.

    Well done MarkN, absolute beauty. That's a serious drop in price for a car that was 120K 2,175 miles ago.

    My next car hopefully, if I get planning from the boss/Missus in a year or so.

    You're going to absolutely love the v8 engine Mark, it gives you a little more acceleration than your already quick 335, but with that deep rumble from under the bonnet, it's just addictive.

    I was lucky enough to be at the launch of the car, and at a driver session in Mondello where we had BMW's professional driving team drift us around the track. They're just epic. Well wear!!

    Great that you came back & updated with your purchase. There's so much depression going around at the minute, at least this is a chink of light (even if it isn't my e92 M3!:D)
