Brammo Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 I like the 1 series bmw hatches. I'd probably go for a 120d coz they're pretty torquey. They look good with lows aswell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widelupo Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 I had 8k to spend two years ago I bought rx7. Coz it had cheap tax. Not bad for 360bhp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widelupo Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Yip I actually did. I had made a shortlist. Evo9, supra, skyline, rx7 or s15. Evo and s15 where too expensive. Supra looks a bit too old. And the only difference between skyline and rx7 was that rx7 tax was cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got lucky then as they are not all registered as 1.3's.Did you factor in the cost of engine rebuilds, oil and back handers to the MOT tester for when it didn't pass the emissions test.

scotty_82 Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 (edited) Id be pushing the 8k for a low milage one but id have an audi a4 avant tdi s-line probably in black or red. Edited January 11, 2012 by scotty_82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah some are reg as 2.6. The one I went for came with 1 year engine warranty. 1 year road tax and MOT. I got a good deal. Prob the best car I have bought. Only bad thing is fuel consumption. Bt I guess skyline would be prob the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStryder360 Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Nice heads up about the Avant, did more German searches... You can get a 2005 BMW Z4 for £5,500. That is ridiculous depreciation. Z3M Coupe for £9,500... Want! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defcon5 Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 I would get(or will probably get) a 2003 S3, 70K on the clock with RS4 rims £6.5k ish or more for a really good one.A mate of mine got an 05 3.2 DSG S-Line for just over 7k before xmas, would prefer one of those to the previous gen S3 I think.
