There a good well respected outfit bought my car from them last year and service has been first class.Phil the main guy is a very decent chap to deal with....snip
Yup mines with Phil at B&C at the moment. Both doors being done - drivers side handle being swapped (won't retract properly), rear long brake light being replaced (condensation won't clear) and rear camera being replaced (ditto). Total cost to me: f
k all. Except I have to rely on either one of my two motorbikes for three weeks or so (or my GF's car when she'd not using it for work). An R1 (you know if you know) - and a Honda X-ADV (which fits the dog when we go for walks). Picture of me and the Honda and Alfie for no particular reason other than why not.jamesgareth said:

Just go buy the one at B&C and put us all out of our misery. It's even got a manufacturers warranty till the end of this month so be quick. Though B$C will no doubt give you one of their very good warranties if you ask nicely. Then you can wrap it in cotton wool till July when it'll be all nice and warm and drive it for a month before putting it in an oxygen filled tent for the winter! What could possibly go wrong?!

There are 53 if you do not include brand new.
31 V6s and 22 2L.
I bought my 2l i4 in Oct 2024 with 700 miles on the clock it was 9 months old. Paid £62K
To buy a similar car now - milage and age - would cost at least £65K. Not that there's the colour I want at the moment. And for that £65K the car will have done 4500 miles. To get one with as little as mine had - I'd be paying £75K plus.
Prices are holding just fine.
Get one while stocks last.
I look forward to the monthly update of your purchase price, mileage, age of car and how much it would cost now…..well done you!!31 V6s and 22 2L.

Once croyde (Colin?) buys a f
king Emira and stops whining on about all the possible ways one can go wrong I will be the happiest human ever to walk this f
king planet.
No Colin would be me, who also had an Alpine, but was disappointed with it and was encouraging croyde to get an Emira.

king planet.Different league to an Alpine even if it has a few bubbles on the doors.
May be a bit OTT with the rant though.

James continued bizarre defence of the issues around Emiras is both pathetic and embarrassing! Not just here, but on the Facebook groups as well and probably other forums.
Bit like the RS Guy previously! And now after James BS about waiting for the warranty to get nearer to expiry not worried about paint issues, now says it s booked in for doors handles etc!
Give it a rest! And stop f
king swearing you child
