Sorry if I have missed the info, but what year is the car, and is the insurance high?

Thanks, I would be really interested.

I'm 44 with 20 years 'no claims', so I should be alright.

Am now looking into financing, and will let you know

should be fine then..

having 3, i noticed, that having that size engine, is much more econimical that the smaller engines, same weight but more power and torque so less effort..in cruises to E Germany and Poland i could get quite good fuel economy, even with a large engine...and a auto. i found a steady 115.8 to be best for speed/economy

like i said, had it been a e34 i would have been interested, but you cant beat a bmw for handling, quality and i have driven a 1000 miles in 1 day many times, and only that type of bmw could do it effortlsly and arrive fresh and not aching or tired.

There can be odd niggles, but so can any car, but had i not got 2 campers (one i swopped for a bmw) i would get another...

at your age etc. should be pretty cheap.

All very true. I would never have any car but a BMW. I have currently got an E36 M3 but have had lots of E36's in the past and they all were bullet proof. I only sold them cos i upgraded to the M3 and i am getting married next year

Make me an offer, i am flexible

I run my own BMW forum so you kow she is looked after. None of my cars want for anything
