I’ve Longed for an E86 for ages, finally bought one, ....and now really wish I’d bought an E85.
I do enjoy driving this car, and I do think it’s a better ‘potential’ long term investment than an E85 or E89, it’s a beautiful thing to look at, and drive ....but it seems I just can’t keep my inner hair dresser at bay :headbang:
Call it a mid life crisis, but I think the lure of feeling the wind in my hair ‘While I’ve still got some’ is too strong to resist.
On that basis, I’d consider an E85 Si (2.5 or 3.0) or a 3.0 non Si in PX. I would consider a 2.5 non Si car, but it would need to be special, and I definitely only want a manual. I’d possibly consider trading up to an E89.
I’m not too fussed about the mileage as long as there’s a decent service history
Please bear in mind that my car is priced very competitively, so anyone wanting to trade up/down needs to be equally realistic with what they want for their car.
Ideally a cash sale at £6700 suits me best - and I won’t sell it for less than this.
