yeah an E46 is ranking HIGH on the cards, i just cant think of anything else that fits the bill in that price bracket?! I'll have to have a bit of a think!

One thing is for sure, I definitely don't want a garage queen again as I don't have the time to use them.

I'll TRY and stick to my guns this time and not end up back in a cossie so no planting ideas in my head PETE

I know its in the blood, the only one I haven't had is a saph might get a cheap one down the line to hoon about in.

For me the cossie's I had were my ideal cars and REALLY good cars so I would find it difficult to better them

determined to try some other grass this time

I have went back to cossies after m3's but once you go back you soon see how good the m3 was ! But i would have another escort in a flash like your one andy not a big power one. For me its all about getting it out your system i would have most of my old cars back as they were all good in their own way i miss tinkering with cossies big time but dont miss the spending on them.M3's are fast everyday of the week & comfy & reliable they are perfect imho

Not at all mate, not at all.

I do hanker after an esc cos from time to time but it lasts a day and then its forgotten. (black, COMPLETELY standard bodywise and mint but a very neat touring car spec 550 engine with r/b T4 .. or perhaps a 600 GT35 engine)

dammit.. I want one now
