Its nothing bad, honest! I couldn't really posted this in the Spotted thread as I haven't exactly spotted it with my own eyes.

TLDR: It is that time of year, a few months before MoT time, where I start to keep my eyes open for a new car for my dad. Kinda given up on a decent Mondeo 2.5T, so on the lookout for a BMW 3 litre estate. The 335i M-Sport manual is top of that tree (in any sort of achievable budget) but as rare as hen's teeth. There was one in Leeds on AT and Ebay for months, which I took to be a bad sign. Anyway, Ebay told me that there had been one up for sale just the other side of Wakefield. Sadly silver, chipped and mileage which I'd be pushed to sell to my dad, but the description seemed honest, and the sort of detail a PH'er would put in their ad. Anyway, here's one of the ad pics (cropped for sanity).

So I guess it actually is someone on here! From their other items they seem to have an Elise too. Anyone?

Cheers! It was just a "well that's a coincidence" kinda thing. More than anything I'm researching the good and bad points of 335i touring ownership. I didn't realise that there were only 48 manuals left, and 107 autos, with not massively more than that actually built.

I know Hugh that cars never missed a beat in his ownership.
