Steve, Sam's just found out she needs keyhole surgery on both knees and she already finds getting in and out of the beemer a pain.

We maybe looking at a Discovery (for her) and 4 door hot saloon for me - I don't think we can afford an RS4 which would be my first choice so it maybe an Evo - having said that, as you said, the depreciation on these is a killer so I might look out for a good 9.

As far as i was aware Paul its only the 6 speed SST transmission that is being held up. The 5 speed manual is still on track time wise.
