You really don't need EDC...
In my opinion, well worth waiting for a car with it.
I wouldn't be bothered either, better to buy the right car condition wise, plenty of after market options that are superior to EDC for the suspension.

But also I wouldn't be bothered if it had it either I just wouldn't exclude a car if it wasn't optioned. (I've had both passive and EDC CP e92 M3)

I clicked on that link yesterday, and ebay just sent me an email about it. For a moment I thought I'd accidentally bought the thing.

Oh I totally agree, I love it, but £20K is crazy money. I nearly bought a relatively clean one for £6K a few years ago, looking at values now I probably should have

After using the Rover during the week I've starting looking at - to replace the XK (love it but it just doesn't put a smile on my face like the Rover, something which I had for the entire commute into work).

A friend will be selling his S2 Elise SC soon, cracking car.

Very, very nice, I'd love one but I can more or less guarantee that it'll be well out of my price range (if other SC S2's are anything to go by anyway). I've until May next year (when the car tax on the XK is up) to find out if I have the right body shape to fit in one biggrin (6ft2" with slightly longer legs than torso).

Today, it's this: http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/2017...

It's the wrong colour, I'd say, but good Alfa 156s are becoming harder to find.

I didn't think they were made that late either, sure the newer one went on sale before 09. Import maybe or sat around unsold for a while?

Today, a smattering of horribly depressing diesel pov-spec hatchbacks frown

try as i might, im not succeeding in making the somewhat forced transition to a company car any more bearable.

Would you believe this has done 240k miles!! "Wrong" engine (300 D) and no aircon (and a horrible steering wheel).
But seriously tempted!!!!

E46 M3's. Specifically this one..



Back to considering a weekend/track toy and having gone around in circles on cars that I either don't fit in (I'm 6ft4) or underwhelm me the M3 is top of the list again.

The one above is unfortunately rather out of budget and a bit clean to put through the kind of modifications I've got in mind (rear cage, fixed back buckets + harnesses, coilovers etc.)

Sadly missed out on this one a few weeks back due to not being ready to buy which would have been perfect and went for just over half of the asking price of the Estoril car above. frown

Despite being told it's NOT a super car, I still want an R8 for my 40th smile

In black, like this one
