So what now?

Post by Pondrew » Sun Feb 05, 2023 11:45 pm

Put the 440i vert on a couple of forums today (not this one as you're all heathens); deposit received at full asking in less than 20 minutes (and had a chap offering over asking to secure). Quality will always win out! :)
Car will be gone by next weekend (buyer was a previous E86 M owner and member on here and had a Z3M bread van).

So my (new) master plan can begin to come to fruition.................... :P
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!

No, no, no. Nowhere near as 'fancy'. :)

    If I could find anything for reasonable money, I would be all over it.

    For now it's going to be 2 wheels. I fancy having a 'tinker' with a couple of '70s, '80s or '90s bikes. Just got to find some which aren't stupid money for a box of rusty bits! :)

    Happy days!
    I never had a Chopper, though, my parents were too tight. I had a Chopper look-a-like which my dad got from the tip and tarted up. :(

    My biggest problem is having an empty garage and money in the bank, though! :(
