For this money I’d have an M3 CSL, a 1M, Z4MC & MR and £150k left for some amazing holidays etc.
Quoted front the Chairman of the RS Owners Club :lol:

All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

F31 320i. Good car.
E89 20i Now fully dried
Z3 'free litre'. Project and a half. Complicated!
Mazda3 sold
Tatty old R56 Mini Cooper. Money pit!

I don't think ANYONE who buys these cars is planning on driving them, ever. Maybe a cameo at the RS Owner's Club Xmas do once a year, delivered on a flatbed.

Bought either by a wealthy 'collector', or as a hopeful investment (especially the Escort Cossie with virtually delivery miles).

That's always the problem if you bought it you wouldn't enjoy it with the mileage and condition. Think I'd rather buy something new and get the full use out of it.
