why is a mint e36 m3 not good enough? not a dig mate just trying to find out what type of car hes after..
think the a sensible choice regarding insurance,tax etc would be a CTR or maybe LCR, though despite in being vag more than a few owner reviews suggest they can be unreliable.

He has an R reg Escort 1.8 Si. The E36 M6 is only going to be a few years newer. That is the only reason he has decided agains that.
He's 25 in May with full NCD and no points. So what ever car you choose, the insurance isn't going to be that expensive.

get a ibiza fr map it put coilovers on it and you have a better perfoming car than most mentioned and low insurance group and the car will only be a year old for your price range

I've widen the search and there is nothing like it anywhere. Very low mileage, looks to be in very good nick. Plus very cheap.
Going to do a HPI check on it before we go and see it.

Thats what i thought. I've also rang up a few times but there is no answer. At work maybe?
Also the dialing tone is a long one ie, ringing abroad....?
