Default I got to drive an E46 M3 - WOW!

On fri night my pal popped in past mine with an 13k miles 03 manual box M3 that he picked up on the cheap and was selling to a garage. It came with half a tank so he thought he'd spank it
the car was cheap because it had missed the 1200 mile service which RW tells me is a big NO NO? The rest of the servicing was done by the owner who had a garage himself. There was no history at all

Anyway we had a look round it then he said go on take it for a spin RW previously said i could drive his but it was december and pishing with rain so declined the wonderful offer. So i jumped in with my cousin and thought my pal and his bro would wait behind. but no they jumped in so i was thinking 4 up it would be a let down

Slowly went up my street over the speedbumps. Out on to the next street and booted it gently from low revs in 1st. WOW what a response! It caught me off guard as it pulled much better than i imagined. Up to the top of the street and out to the dual carriageway where i gave it beans up to a decent figure in 5th! To say i was impressed would be a massive understatement.

I dont know if its because my cossie has been off the road for so long and i havent driven fast cars other than a couple of evos but it felt fantastic. What an awesome classy, reliable, powerful all rounder!

I want one, BASTARD!
