I am in the process of relocating to London (from Sweden) and am already missing my old car (a '05 330i Sport) after only a week and want to get my new car in the UK sharpish...

I'm leaning towards either a M3 CS or a Monaro VXR (500 if possible otherwise upgraded to that spec over time). Of course the recent posts about £26,995 VXRs makes the equation decidely lopsided...

Does anyone know whether there are any of these cars left? In black?

Also, as a rough guide, how much should I expect to pay in insurance for a VXR? 30 year old male, living in west london, single, company director, no NCB in the UK but 12 years if they can transfer from Sweden...

Thankful for any input!

cheers,

Martin

I hear there are 7 more pre registered cars still to be allocated to dealers plus any existing cars the dealers already hold - so they should be gone soon ??

No, I am based in SW London with a weekly commute to B'ham.
Mine's silver. It looks pretty good so I am not unhappy I couldn't find a black one now.
