Gibbo. Enjoy the new toy! Don't let the practicality argument over-ride the pleasure one! Do the woods still need to be removed so the bag will fit in the 'boot'?
they didnt in my TT, could get 2 full sets in

I kind of ignore Bentley altogether. There's a few round here; if one's parked up, I don't even bother to look over it. Anything else and I'll be drooling like a school boy. odd that....
There was a Porsche Cayman 3.4 at the auction (last time I went) and I stuck in with the dealers up to £14k. The Hammer fell on £15,600. It never made the reserve.....
t.b.h. I have a thing for the R8.

There was a definite shift from BMW to Audi for non-private buyers. BMWs were becoming the new Mondeo.
I have an old/private 320d touring/estate and it's probably the most common car around here. Deathly boring.

its the 225bhp, its around 6.5 for 0-60 and I have had it to 155mph (last week on the a1m although I do not condone speeding but wanted to see what it could do)
I can get 2 sets of clubs in the back and my trolley with room to spare for a bit of shopping on the way home.
I think its a great motor, solid, well built and quick enough if needed.

Good for you Gibbo. (not the 1** mph!)
I'm torn as to what to get myself. plan a) is to buy another pocket money car, like normal (zzzzz) or plan b) get something outrageous just as a once-in-a-lifetime car.
Just been looking at Coupes on Autotrader. I've been pipped for a few at the car auction recently....I'll bag one soon enough. Last week I went for a 190 Celica, only to stop £50 short. I'd also quite like a GTV maybe....

Going to have to go a long way to beat my Mercedes CLK230 Avantgarde worth £15k which I got on Fleabay a few years ago for £4500
sold it for £11k a couple of years later when mid life crisis had passed
Oops here comes another one

If you can turn a profit like that, I think you should have more crisiseseses.

the mpg was at 9 lol
average at the mo is 34.9 which is about on par with the crappy cmax tbh, just a lot more fun doing so (with the odd boy racer roundabout rev fest lol)

Good little motor, I had a 225 rag top until recently. Was a good laugh especially after getting a replacement airbox, DV Valve installed and a remap. Was running at 270bhp when I sold it last month.

In the end I got rid of it as it has no boot to speak of and having the clubs on the front seat was a pain. Have now got an E46 M3 which is still a vert but does at least have a boot (of sorts) which can fit clubs in.
