Default Someone got a bargain

was watching this keenly, but with a house purchase going through and a 3 week old it wasnt really an option for me

alot of car for the money, and as long as the paint job is a good un, well worth it

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1608151344...ht_2269wt_1336

fancy a BMW as a runaround to retire the FRS from daily duties, but my broker doesn't cover M3's and its thirstier than the FRS i bet

530d does seem more suitbale....but the funds just arent there (yet )

I was looking at the same one, but its not the only case, i was looking at a black 02 plate which went for the same money

No wonder decent spec saff's arent selling when you can have one of these for that sort of money

My M3 is better on fuel than my FRS and I use NU rather than super so cheaper x2.

Been thinking about doing a deal on a MK1 FRS and my Civic TypeR, but these are pretty tempting too.


Cheers,

Was wondering the same thing! Makes me cringe! I could not buy a car off anyone who uses that phrase.

He'd of got another couple of grand if he hadn't written that and made the text smaller!
