There was a pic or article posted on PH when CH bought that, I wonder what he paid?

£7.5k, £7.5 bloody k I could have bought one for in '98 or their abouts. Completely rebuilt by the guy who'd owned it since I was a nipper & used to ride over to his house and peer through the gates at it. Couldn't shift my Fiesta RS turbo for love nor money to raise the purchase price frown

Car goes into main dealer for brake fluid and rear bads.

Just got the phone call... ...needs discs and pads all round.


Um, anyone want a 650i that goes (and stops, a bit)?

Maybe a lesson to be learned here about where to service your ageing bmw?
More a lesson in 'buying well', ownership periods and real life running costs.

Fluid change and pad replacement costs were palatable, especially as they pick up and deliver the car.

I've called CPC for a quote on discs & pads but obviously goes to answerphone.

Even if I had wanted them to do it today, BMW don't have the parts in stock.

A Peugeot that has done almost 200k miles. I really want...

Just goes to show that if something is used regularly, and maintained, they don't all break as soon as the clock ticks over to 100k miles.

£628 for the lot at Euro Car Parts.

Be interesting to see what BMW charge.
