Funny you should say it happened after your Insp 2. I had a feeling my consumption increased immediately after my insp 2. I thought i was being paranoid and never did anything about it. Its been like that for about 9/10 months now and i am still not sure if I am being paranoid, as i only do mostly s...

I always wanted a hard top on all the convertibles i have had, and never had one till i got the ///M. And now i got the ///M it spends most of its time tucked a...

Well Leigh, i think things through and then when the time comes for me to get what i want, and when something turns up I go for it. Its a big beast and can go from 0-60 in 8 secs compared to 5.3 in the ///M and the 5 is a diesel auto so its some good going. I'll show it to you next time I am over st...

:D I know Gaz, plenty of toys in there for me to play with. Standard its 193bhp but with a re-map it will be 225bhp. Don't know if i'll be getting any mods like that done for a while though. Its quick enough as it is, 0-60 in 8secs. Economy wise 40-ish to the gallon, but it'll drink like a petrol if...

I think i found a solution and if this is not acceptable to the seller then i think i will be walking away. I spoke to the finance company and they have legal title and rights to the car until the hp is settled. I dont want to give him the cash to settle it in case he doesnt settle it. I dont want t...

Thats one option Gaz, but then i have paid a large amount of cash to a finance company and dont yet have the car, so from the time i pay to the time i collect the car, what if he smashes it? he disappears? many other unthinkables?

Advice needed on buying a car that has outstanding finance.
Hi all, Hoping some of you guys can impart your wisdom here. I went to see/test drive a car tonight, BMW 530d Sport. When it got to the price i managed to get him to knock £650 of the price and we were both happy. Then, he says most of the money was to pay off outstanding finance and he showed me th...
