Re 89

[Smartbear]

Not so concerned about travelling for the right car, but would be nice to try some that were closer.
Am going to look at M.M.M’s at the weekend so we shall see

Where are you? I’m in Urgashay if you want a look round an e89, it’s only a 2litre though

Appreciate the offer, I’m in Exeter
No idea where you are, Somerset?

Yes, near the Haines motor museum & queen camel

That does look to be a bargain even if it is quite light on the bells-n-whistles. My 3.0 didn't come with much but its still a great car to drive, I've not got sat nav but not fussed about that (the area that would hold the sat nav holds my sunglasses instead!). I also don't have the sports seats but that has worked out to be quite nice anyhow. It all depends on what you want at the end of the day I guess!

I’m undecided at the moment.
Will see what Mr Tidy thinks when he’s had a look.
I don’t want to jump in for the wrong reasons, just because they’ve offered a good px, 4500, which I would accept in a private sale.
Call me cynical, but I question such a fair offer from a dealer, is the E89 a lemon, or does he just feel he can turn a profit from both cars and is happy with that?
