Way to go Stan, best I got for first was a 5 quid A30 (1950 I think) all of three weeks wages.
By the way has MS anything to do with the onboard computer!

Hmmmm....

Good going! Hope you can pay for it, it takes more out of you than you think to buy a new car. Unless your rich that is, hehehe

First car I ever bought was an El'Camino. Boy I regret ever selling that thing!

Then I bought a corvette, then a dodge, got a couple of free camaro's and....etc...

Man have times changed! My first car was a 1961 corvair-paid 100 bucks for it in '68.
Wish I would have kept it cause today it would probably bring 200 bucks! /forum/biggrin.gif

Nice ride Stan! It'll be worth the wait. /forum/smile.gif

Well, since we're all discussing 1st cars, mine was a 1966 Ford Galaxie 500 convertible. It was pretty cool for a 16 yr old!

edit: p.s. someone (I won't name names WW /forum/wink.gif ) thought I was 16 in 1966... well I'm not telling how old I am, but I ain't THAT old! LOL /forum/biggrin.gif

Hi Scott.

I love BMW... such a nice car

Sport suspension comes at standard on the 328ci in UK.
I chose the following options: leather uphosltery, 18" alloy (245 rear, 225 front), air-co, computer trip (not the GPS), sun-roof.
And it is the steptronic.

Hi Stan
Just out of interest how much are they rubbing your account for it these days, as it's been 12 years since last in the UK.

Hi

Well, I can't really explain where and how I bought the car. But, don't worry, there is nothing illegal in the transaction.
It is a case where I know and friend who knows another friend ... who is able to get me a interesting deal.

Re pricing:
In UK, for a 328ci standard (no options), the price is approx 29.000 pounds
And thanks to my friend who knows another friend..., I could get the same car for... 25.000 pounds... big saving, isn't it ?
