Well as most of you know I am selling the blade and was going to use the funds to buy a fast car, well the bike is still in the garage but all the bling has gone to new homes! ................................ So I got bored and could not stand the 2.0 mondeo LX petrol I have been running anymore, its a good reliable car but it was always going to be a stop gap. So in intrim while the bike is sold I have bought a sensible little car to potter about in a little BMW 535i V8 M Sport Individual I love you can buy one of these for just over two grand What you think guys ?
I am getting 30-33 mpg on a run, which amazes me lol around town is more like 19-20 but I only use it to cruise upto Bristol once a week so it is doing me proud at the moment and its so comfortable its unreal, oh and the V8 soundtrack is so addictive lol Already thinking the M5 would be a nice replacement in 6 month - 1yr, with prices dropping recently ??? I need help I think ! Maybe I am turning into a grown up ???
It was a sad day Fez but I took the bike out after and I an still in love with it, if I have to keep it as it is I wont be upset. I just refuse to give it away for peanuts !! some of the offers have been laughable !!
Just to point out once again how good this forum is I joined a certain BMW 5 series forum introduced myself with pics etc and I got 3 replies in a week ! posted this today and you guys seem more interested than they did ? also made a few posts no replys etc just been ignored !! I love this forum and you guys
thats what people on ebay do, just offer stupid money. if it doesnt sell jamie at least there are worse things to be sat in your garage
Agreed there Fez, I'm not desperate to get rid. The mods really did tweak the perfection, it's amazing how much I still love it standard going back, thought it would be terrible but its not its still fantastic
Had an estate or touring version and loved it, the interior is such a nice place to be and the only car I miss.
Think it must be getting late, Im sure I just saw a bike with four wheels and windows. Must lay off the energy drinks!!! just gonna get the missus to slap me hard and ill come back again......
i had the same thing a few years ago mate,unless its no older than a year or 2 with a lot of ££££ thrown at it they dont want to know! nice car fella more car than money i went from aylesbury to glasgow in one like that a couple of years ago and got out the other end like i'd just gone round the block
The E39 Beemer is fabulous... I've got a 528 Sport and still love it after 3 years... your one looks stunning! If you're after a friendly forum to help you out try bmwland.co.uk... the helpful chaps there have saved me hundreds over the years.
Thanks gappy will give it a whirl already changed all the brakes and fixed the dash pixels and had rear bumper off to replace the rear parking sensors I am hoping that there will be less to do now she is all up and running. Still not a blade but much more comfortable on the weekly commute
