Madness to Sell my 275 Trophy? Considering ST3 and M135i
Discussion
Had my LY 275 Trophy for about 6 months and bang on queue, I have an itch to try something else again!
I can’t really put my finger on what it is that is making me think about changing it, but just considering my options. The LY certainly gets some attention, and not always for the best.
My Megane is going up for about 16k, want to stay below that for the next purchase whatever happens
Been keeping an eye on M135i’s, but I’m pretty fussy and well specked ones seem rare (3dr, Auto, Pro Nav, HK Sound, rev cam and M Exhaust). It seems to tick a lot of boxes, being a more suitable daily than the Megane while also being quick still. My Z4 was probably one of my favourite cars so would hope this is a development on that
Complete other end of the scale is a Fiesta ST3 just to get some money out of cars during COVID, so look at lower end 7-9k, it seems like it could be a perfect modern replica of my favourite Clio’s but worried that I’m a bit old and have maybe moved on from this type of car after moving up the food chain a bit
I’m 27, house purchase imminent!
Already had;
2 Clio 182
Clio 200 Cup
Megane R26
Megane 250 Cup, 265 Cup and 275 Trophy
Cooper S R53
BMW Z4 Coupe 3.0 Si
BMW M3 E46
BMW M3 E92
Integra DC5
S2000
2 Audi TTS
