The Best ///M/Barge/General Rant/Look at This/O/T [Vol VIII]
Discussion
Good news - ST24 is sold so I am on the look out for a new motor now 
I know of a very nice B5 Audi A4 1.8T Sport coming up for sale soon, what is the general opinion on them?
Budget up to £1600, manual, and ideally under £1k to insure (e.g. 328i is the limit for insurance).
What do we think?

Crook,
How's your E36 M fairing? Costs wise etc.
House should complete next week and when the dust settles I'll be looking for One. The civic is a great motorway car but it's just not got that special feeling or different enough for me.
Nothing major since the last insp 2 apart from it still needs the downpipe bit welding/replacing. Otherwise it’s only been the cost of the car plus the work to get it happy plus a service, a bit of bodywork, some tyres and pads which all equals about the cost of the car again.

Currently though, the on-board consumption thing is pretending were getting 32+mpg fortunately I’m happy to pretend too.

I really like the idea of a 328i, but it seems to be difficult to find a good one. E28 looks fantastic, are they not quite expensive? What about an e28?
The Audi in question is a 1998 model, 61k, I know the current owner very well and it has been treated very well, just had the cambelt done, and most of the suspension refreshed. Selling due to a new purchase...

I'd take the Mondeo you've just sold over the Audi. The Audi in question is a 1998 model, 61k, I know the current owner very well and it has been treated very well, just had the cambelt done, and most of the suspension refreshed. Selling due to a new purchase...

My wife asked me if she could take her PPL and buy a small plane - only a little one, nothing flash... 
Dear God this is from someone who complained that the Supra was thirsty....
I had a lesson with a view to getting my PPL. It was the most boring experience. Sort of like being in a small boat with an outboard but in the sky. Which, after you got over the admittedly amazing fact that you are in the sky, became pretty dull. Dear God this is from someone who complained that the Supra was thirsty....Gaz. said:

I've got a full SE leather interior about to go the skip too.
You could sell that on e36coupe.com for £100, if you don't mind dealing with scum who need to wait until payday, offer you £70 best price innit if you deliver it to Chalvey otherwise £60 cos of fuel my friend...

Been looking at them myself too. Seem to be a few around the £4k mark with slightly higher mileages.
Could get something decent for the same price but not much thats particularly special. Late E36M at similar money too but almost double on insurance, possibly more to go wrong and higher fuel.
Don't think about what can go wrong until it does go wrong...... Could get something decent for the same price but not much thats particularly special. Late E36M at similar money too but almost double on insurance, possibly more to go wrong and higher fuel.

I really like the Trophy but that one mentions Quentin Wilson in the advert, has done many miles and doesn't mention a damper rebuild having been completed.
