That's really, really nice. Almost too nice to buy and leave outside in all weathers. Love the cloth. Want cloth if I get a '124.
Fortunately, it's out of budget.

The wagon has an altogether more aristocratic bearing. Er, possibly.  cmoose eats his words said: That's really, really nice. Almost too nice to buy and leave outside in all weathers. Love the cloth.

Fortunately, it's out of budget. Told you so.

Apologies for mobile link but I spotted this a few days ago - http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?itemId=1...What an absolute beauty. I'm seriously tempted to take a look at this one and I'm not even particularly looking for a new car. Anyone know much about these? I'm supposing a touch juicy but otherwise should be rock solid? (perhaps someone on a proper pc can post a pic)

Reflections on the driver's seat or 13 years of a beaded seat cover?

What could be better? Exactly. I like your work but they are too old. Plus, I can't find one for sale! £10k is purely an upper limit, I'd far rather spend less. However, I fear it may be required in order to tick as many of the boxes as I need to tick. An E90 330i really appeals too but falls down on the discreet and spacious counts. Are these rubbish then, because I think they are quite appropriate? http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/2012...

What could be better? Exactly. I like your work but they are too old. Plus, I can't find one for sale! Couple of years back we used a £410 605 V6 SVE to enter the Scumball. Did 2500 miles in 5 days and it was faultless (apart from teh dodgy front shock which really made its presence known when trying to vmax at 140mph on the autobahn!) Every one of us regrets selling it on. I'd have happily run it into the ground.
