Think he was asking about the 435i, which I’m fairly confident come in manual too. Although other than to say you’ve a manual I’m not sure why anyone would go for it lol

Have always said the same thing... that is until I bought my first auto a few years back in a TSI Golf with a DSG box. Can't see myself going back to manual at this stage :rolleyes:

I love driving my E36 but it gets tiresome when you are used to an auto daily.

I was always a long-time proponent of manual and petrol. Since I got my current car though I've changed my mind a lot!

Doubt I'll ever buy a manual again bar it's a small, cheap yoke to run around in while waiting on a new car.

Dont quote photos!!

Technically, that's a long long way from a write -off... money-wise might be a bit different...Fight your case with the insurance assessor ( or get whoever made out the repair quote to fight for you ) See how the quoted figure was arrived at..was car hire, depreciation included? What else? If you really want the car, be prepared to accept a lower quotation, that will swing the assessment in your favour. That car can be repaired ( and a proper repair at that ) for a lot less than the garage assessment. Once insurance is mentioned in a garage or repair shop, there is always a dramatic rise in the quote...

I was totally ready to fight for it, had all these ideas in my head but I didn't need them as AXA are happy to pay, which I'm shocked at.
Waiting on parts now which is going to be interesting, not exactly an easy car to find parts for.

Thanks for your help.

I think that 535d belonged to a neighbour in Limerick city. Nice car, well wear. Can't be that many 11 LK regd 535d in the city.

Its an absolute weapon, fastest thing i've ever driven. I had an e60 520d lci before this, which i thought was fast. That torque..

Nice car Mal,
I came very close to buying one of those instead of one of my vRS's.
Well wear.

Yup your exact one, I checked the reg to make sure. he bought it at auction, it was only two panels damaged from what I remember, I'm not sure on their grading system but it was recorded damage rather than written off? I never got to drive it but he said it was more show than go?!

If I remember correctly that's a proper mugen spoiler on that car which was rare enough? The wheels on it now suit it much better!

Even found a pic of it!

Ahh look at that! What a small world.
Yeah it was a Category N write off, so minor damage. It probably went to auction after that then.
It's absolutely more show than go but it's fun to drive

That's right, and the spoiler is why I bought it :pac:

I wonder what happened to the black writing on the side, it's not on it anymore!

Not me anyway! Drove past Limerick when I picked it up in Mayo in June, but that's about it.

Didn't have a French Car since my 405 about 20 year's ago so here we are €1950 with a full tank of juice Laguna Coupe with a Bose sound system and full Leather which are sport Seats!

Really nice to drive only hard getting used to a manual after 5 year's of Lexus autobox! Plenty of toys on this to keep entertained on my daily commute!
