As a way to make people look at you and think you're a bit of a prat, it's a lot more expensive than walking around shouting "LOOK AT ME! I'M A BIT OF A PRAT!"

That said, I do like it a lot!

Agree, but it's not going to be a £5k car. The owner paid around double that, although by the sounds of things it is worth it for someone who wants a potential concourse car.

Fairly tempted but it'll be top top money from a W115 (with a blown heater fan too).
Looks like it finished at £5400. Total bargain if it really did sell for that.

I think that's pretty cool. Would I pay real money for it, probably not, but it's cool* nonetheless.

* Noting that what a middle-aged, middle-class sort of chap that favours bold coloured trousers thinks will rarely be cool by the standards of all right-thinking folk.

I know. An E46 is neither retro or interesting, but this one has a secret.

I like.

E32 735i Spanish. Advert says iL, but it doesn't look extended to me.

I Love the colour.

I think I'm too suspicious these days: "uprated" manual conversion, wrapped to hide all blemishes, wheels need re-doing, interior looks 3 or 4 times the miles... maybe at a grand or so, not at 4.

Actually I agree. I never read the advert, just thought it looked good.

This has to be worth saving. It looks like a TR7 in this pic, but is actually a Volvo 480 ES.

Hopefully off to pick up something retro and interesting ( to me at least). Just a coach, the underground and a train to endure first! Fingers crossed it’s good.
