Hi Remal,

We must be close neighbours then because Harlequin is about 200 yards from where I live.

I agree with your recommendations too.

My cousin bought a car from them and has never had any bother with it, but that was a £3000 car, not sure I would want to spend a lot of money with them, I have always looked there, but always got a feeling that I shouldnt buy from them!

So what is the car you are thinking of

If I had the cojones to do it, the 740i they've got.

But they've some other tasty bits and pieces, and really I fancy just wondering down and having a nose...

740's are nice, a friend runs one, I seem to remember recently you were saying you wanted a diesel, well....you could buy a diesel with 6 months worth of fuel the 740 would use, they aren't cheap, plus factor for expensive tyres/brake discs etc.

I had a 540i which was better in all ways.

Plus, you will look like the hoff.

Mike, I'll give you a call in the car when I get in it later...

I looked at that 740i, and as dreamy as it was for £4k, I luckily had my sensible head on at that moment, and it was too large, too thirsty and just too much of a car for someone used to throwing a little Golf around.

Taking a look at a 328 however they are having in today

Restricted somewhat. ;-)

The amount of times Silverback has changed his car he must have experience of nearly every dealer and private seller in the region.

Bloody hell - we are just moving into St.Georges in the next few weeks - doing all the DIY at the mo - so Harlequin have been quite local.

Very much like the 328i auto that is there - pressing all the right buttons at the moment - and an auto would be nice over the winter.

Mike - cheers for your handy help and advice today mate

No problem chap.

[chuggaboom]

I'm in Soundwell just down the road....and have never heard of them !!!

But then I don't get out much....unless its a full moon.

[yeovilmac]

I live almost opposite the Esso garage in Soundwell Road.

I could run to Harlequin Motors with a following wind of some strength and a bull behind me!
