a question for people in the know

[Sancho]

um yep exactly that.dont get me wrong its great fun,but im not a little kid anymore and i need to grow up,hehehehehe,nah its a little too unrefined for my liking,you feel every pot hole in the road,i like my comfort.i think i would rather like to waft up the road than have my face pulled off.

You need a V6 surf

I'd be wary of that particular Beemer, just because he boasts about how quick it is and how good for drifting. I'd check it very carefully for any signs of thrashing.

I know I'll get slated for this but, when I was looking for something cheap quick, comfy and reliable I ended up with my MG ZT and thought it was great. You can pick one up at a price not far away from that 535 and it'll be over ten years newer, faster and more comfy. Just don't buy the 1.8 unless you own shares in a head gasket company.

hes owned it for three months and before that it belonged to a doctor,i know the head gasket has been done he told me he has all the receipts for the £900 it cost to do it.which i shall be checking.im not expecting it to be a new motor it has done 104,000 miles,but then if its been looked after it should be a good one.a bit like that v6 surf i once owned.

It was so good that Mark split it into little pieces so that lots of people could enjoy it all at once.

WELL AT THE MOMENT ITS SITTING IN MY DRIVE WITH A BUSTED HEAD GASKET. so maybe one day i might actually do the head gasket and then i would have a loverly engine to put into something.
