How does it drive for a 10yr old car??What do you think of the interior colour combo??

Nah looks no bad.Boss's wife had 1 the same but in silver.Always quite liked it.

P.S i actually thought "you" had "bought" it for her,until i seen that your dad actually paid for it.

I quite like these, got a few on the books and got one in that colour booked in next month for an enhancement detail - that's done super low miles too!

Best wheels for them imo are these:

My mum has one too

Hers is dark blue tho! And the 230 compressor.


That interior is lovely! The Z3 is a better drives car but it's tiny inside and has no boot space or any luggage capacity whatsoever. The S2000 is japcrap inside, the z4 is best comparison but it's less of a mums car and far more expensive. 3 series is huge by comparison.

These aren't drivers cars but ride exceptionally well (its a mercedes afterall) they are roomy and built like tanks.


Ours is old and battered now

Clean.

27k in 10 years isn't necessarily a good thing - unless it has been a weekend car for longer journeys.

This one is a 200 Komprosser... whats that all about Jambo? Where am I checking? Never noticed the boot is wet!

Private plate is on the cards for her 50th which is in Sept

Oh and Rich, what do I use (that's cheap and available anywhere) to clean the exhaust tip?

Ours had a dodgy seal. It has spare wheel well under the carpet. It's in there probably won't happen to you but might be worth lifting up the carpet to check it, ours had no visible sign of leaking until we took off the carpet and there was a puddle

Autoglymn or autosol and a bit of towel. Rich will probably tell you it's rubbish, but it works ok for me
