For any of you who are interested the VXR is now back and looking in showroom condition - or was until the bad weather - its sop dirty now lol

The BMW got approved on Monday so should be back in my hands next Thursday

already scouting through my car list to see what i can replace it with as it goes back very soon and will be missed very very much

Really glad to hear that, have they been recorded as stolen/recovered?

Id still feel uneasy everynight going to bed though, nothing you can do about it I suppose

What you going to do with the VXR then? That one didn't get very far did it?

Glad to hear you're getting them back, but still not sure I'd personally want them back for some weird reason!

Dont think you'd get on with the A3, its probably not as sporty a drive as the 1 series. White Black Editions look awesome though. Same could be said for the Passat.

I'd have a BE A3 myself but just thinking you quite like how your 1 series drives with it being RWD

Gotta be the Insignia, god damn they look good!

Wish I had your choice in company vehicles. I get a choice of VW Transporters or Transits! lol

I'd feel sick paying the CC tax on an Insignia with the depreciation etc.

why? Bik is the drivers liability, whereas the car and depreciation are ordinarily someone elses.
Out of that list, it would be either the 1 series again or passat cc. We run a few at work and they are well regarded

that's good to hear - If I hadn't have had the 1series for 3 years i would have one again no hesitation

by far the best drivers car i have driven for a long time
