Gone : (

Post by senwar » Mon Jun 15, 2009 12:02 pm

So, after a week of debating and heart v head decisions, my car has finally gone :cry:

Collected this morning, and now en route to BMW. One final shot of it leaving - just glad it was torrential rain so it didn't look as good!

Image

Its been a fantastic experience owning this car, and I've loved every minute of the 27 months worth of ownership. If anyone thinks they want to get one of these - do it. You won't regret it. It really hit me last night as I was cleaning it out, but its done now.

So, on with a car search. My sensible choices have changed a little but going for practicality for a while, and probably going to get an X5. Won't be the same, but looking forward to the search.

I'm gonna miss this car - but will cherish the memories!!!

:thumbsup:

You definitely made the right choice Senwar - I'm glad you went through with it.

Let's just hope the X5 is good! (I presume you're spending a lot less on one?)

Shame to see it go. Good memories and less bills though!

I've a friend selling a black diesel x5 with nav etc if you're interested (always doing deals me!).

Don't be a stranger....
2007 z4mc carbon black - gone but not forgotten. The guy I sold to still has it, maybe one day I will buy it back.
Now - Maserati Gransport with many mods. Sounds incredible.

Thanks for the comments all.

Yes, it was/has been a gutting experience, that I expect will hit me more come the weekend when I don't have my blast mobile available.

pvr - yep. we've had flash floods in Sheffield again goddam it. My mrs got drenched walking about 3 feet from her car to the front door when she got home.

IK - my budget for the X5 has increased now, although will still be a cheaper option than my M.

Ian_Mac - the car was taken to Harold Wood BMW, Romford yesterday. I think they may have someone lined up though.

outrun - yes possibly interested - will PM you.

Will definitely stick around. Its a good forum, and good people. I still use the TT forum 4 years after selling my TTR!
