I think the 2nd car doesn't even have the mats.
First car is the looker there

I wouldn't dream of putting a car up with fifty carpet. It's stupid.

It does. But beige mats don't really work well.

Beige floor mats are a terrible idea

Maybe he's since brought it back, but it does say in the advert ...

At the moment the car it's in Benidorm (Spain) Two weeks ago I drove the car there.

Can't imagine the phone is ringing much for a car that can't reasonably be viewed - regardless of condition.

I was going to give out to Duke for not reading the Ad properly.....:o:o:o

Is anyone else stupidly tempted by the Lexus? But has a wife that would sign the divorce papers immediately if another car was brought to the household?

Showed that 730 to my wife and she laughed at me...... back to bangernomics thread for me.

It's funny the mental block people have about these cars. You could run and own that 730d for years for the same a new Fiesta.

ELM327

great car, I'm looking for a second car at the moment and if I wasn't restricted to €3k budget I'd be all over that.

begbysback

Is that really an msport?

Probably but I'm just wanting something as second car to do very small miles so not that practical really haha.

Wouldn't catch me dead in a fiesta or the likes tho ha.

Stallingrad

That interior though, what a fall from grace for BMW that was. Total deal breaker.

The M badge is just dealer tat, but it has the sport pack, shadow trim, steering wheel, front seats and springs. Wheels aren't a sport wheel though oddly.

ongarite

Why is it under the old CC based tax too?
Looks to be a late reg 08 Meath reg

bazz26

It has the M Sport interior dark grey headlining too which is usually a good sign of a genuine M Sport or not.

My wife changed her car last year.
When I totted up her annual mileage I said there is no way we should be getting a diesel.
This went on and on and on.
We eventually bought a dcat auris.
So.. I had to make a choice, peace and ****ing quiet or constant nagging at the price of petrol.
I chose the former.
Luckily she does a good bit of long distance driving every month so no issues so far.

If my wife bought that she'd be single fair quick.
