must admit i like that signum would never have thought of that lol.........
e46 m3 is top of my list but im very concerned about overall running costs unless anyone can shed some light on what they are like day to day and month to month
as for playing with my gsi i only see that as throwing my money down the drain tbh

My m3 has cost me around £830 in 19 months. That's just parts at trade price excluding vat. No labour as it free. 320 miles from a £75 tank of bp ultimate. Obviously insurance grp 20 so that's makes it pricey.
Tyres are £220 each give or take.
You can always sell it if it's too much to run.
Best thing is to get one that has just been serviced.
Coupe's are cheap now

tom that ent that bad lol i mean how likely are they to go wrong really? i mean i would like to think an m3 has been looked after when compared to somat like a st or 172 etc which will have been ragged by a young lad or is that just my brain doin overtime thinking m3 ownes are more mature lol
