    Tell me you didn't go for that flying banana, the Jordan special? I hope it was the Z3 now, even tho I dislike them. Well, the hatchback one is nice. I can see this thread running.... ;)

    EDIT: NOOOOO! THE TVR?! With all the mech probs? Well, at least you'll look great standing beside it ;)

    1999 T Reg
    Black
    Black/Red Leather interior
    18,000 miles on the clock
    Tracker fitted
    HPi clear
    M3 Roadster (Convertible) the Coupe has the weird hardback.

    Test drove it this morning, although I couldn't go faster than 30/40 (residential areas) you just knew she was gagging to go, the sound is amazing, and the view over the bonnet is quite unique :D

    M Roadster :) I'm a sucker for Convertible :p
    There's a Coupe round here, and I seriously hate the back of it, going to book myself in for a Skidpan day organised by the vx220.org.uk forums :D


    I just love the way it was grumbling along, can't wait to stand on her toes and hear her roar :p

    The Roadster looks like a Z3 on steroids though :/

    Its costing me £70 to change the insurance for the last 3 months, which is good because they charge £30 anyway, then from Feb onwards I've had £800 quotes :)

    Too good to miss :D

    Now, that can wait till March ;) I want to hear her purr first :p & I really need a Headunit before I install ICE. (& I killed a tweet taking it out of the Spider, so I need new tweets too :rolleyes: )

    :p Each to their own they say, but like I said, I really don't like the one thats round here, and didn't want the same car as them anyway :) I can't wait to cross the geezer in a 1.9 Z3 who always used to look down at me in the Spider when I passed him in town... wait till he gets a load of this... :D :D :D
