There seem to be quite a lot of coupes and convertibles, but if you want an N52 3 series touring there is very little, and most are automatics. And whilst I think BMW saloons and estates look good in silver, I prefer black or navy or maybe (maybe) something outlandish. Again my colour preference halves an already tiny market.

Ebay right now

Search - BMW 330i - 86 cars

Narrow to Manual - 8 cars

Narrow to Touring - 0 cars

Just need to get shot of my old Lancer, which I simultaneously now hate because it feels so crap, whilst loving the practicality... definitely the best option for the car to take out in the salt earlier tonight! If I had space and car tax was shifted onto fuel I'd keep the Lancer.
You're going to have to fight me for it! I am looking for the same, E91 325/330 in navy or grey. Seldom come on the market.

No need, I found one! See previous page! Black so I didn't steal one from you!

Good luck with the search.

Out of interest, are there any other cars that you would consider instead? Subaru Legacy 3.0R B Spec was the one that came closest to tempting me away from buying a 330i.

Ah grand! saves a fight eh.

Bit of a BMW addict, especially that era. I know I don't really like that age/cost of Audi or Merc. Was looking at Ovlov's as a potential.

My neighbour has one of them, so not sure I could do it!
 
Not so much mine - it was once - but a Fabia I’ve reacquainted myself with as a car for daughter’s boyfriend. 160k showing and as good to drive now as it was when new. Well, almost.

My other car is used by my wife after she sold her 21 year old Polo.

2007 Aygo Black.
Cosmic Black metallic paint - original paint
Alloys
R/c locking
Leather gear knob.
27,800 miles from new
Original number plates, keys and key rings.
Amazing condition.
I’m the 2nd owner from new. Local registered too.

60mpg all day long and drives superbly.

Bought last year from the local dealer (22,163miles) in my village (px’d one of my motorbikes as a straight swap).
Never failed an MOT.
How rare is that for a little city car.
The underside is amazingly clean.

Just had a service for £58 using genuine Toyota parts.

Love driving it too.

And i bet it fits seamlessly into your garage? ‘We’ have a city car currently for sale; my daughter’s SEAT Mii is moving on after two great years of service. 139k and still purrs like a kitten

I don't want your Mii, but the weather looks glorious!
of course you do! Ah, you’re missing out… yep, it was the balmy 20° day we’ve just had. Back to grey today

Rice cookers are all the rage these days, so I thought, "Why not?..." And so here's my current daily (2019 FK8 Type R)
Honda_Hurunui_02.jpg
 
I didn't think I had any, but at the weekend I found some photos of my daily from around 2002/04... I've always regretted selling it for about 10% (or less!) of what the interior would be currently worth, let alone the rest of the car... but seeing the rust on it (and the fact he doesn't seem to have passed an MOT since I sold it!) suggests it really did need scrapping, restoring or laying up in a barn for later restoration. Fishnet recaros, lots of black not grey inside... the interior was close to perfect except for the damaged parcel shelf and the beading on the driver side bolster having come loose for about 4" to 5".

The Mii is still waiting on its new owner, but daughter has branched out and now owns a rather lovely 2014 116i M-Sport (last of the pre-facelift I think)… we spent 5 hours today cleaning it. I’m still to drive it! The deal is I drive the 1-series and she gets a spin in the Z4
