Looks in great condition Voxination! Lots of cars changing hands recently!
Shame I didn't know it was for sale, could have had a bidding war

That photo of the E46 driving off is really sad

Thanks! Ahh shame, am sure we could have come to an agreement that would have involved an exchange of the M5
Not the best weather conditions to pick the car up but I've thoroughly enjoyed my first few hours ownership! The car is rotten now though
Thanks Callum, couldn't ask for a more helpful seller!
Glad to head you're enjoying it! It was a pleasure Lee, look forward to seeing you around

Tell me about it, have wandered downstairs and glanced outside a few times at the empty space on the driveway through the rain soaked window where I used to be able to see a nice "330Ci" badge glinting in the light, sadly all that remains is an empty space

IIRC the plate came with the car and isn't relevant to him anyway

Ahh it's starting to make sense!
Pete what are you replacing it with?
Man of Honour
Sounds good to me
Good good
I'm looking forward to a ride in Vox's v8 M3 too

Plate sold with the car, was on it when I bought it and has 0 relevance to me
Have eyes on another plate for myself but it requires getting an 11 plate or newer M3.Do you have much experience of them? Just I'm going to have a DCT one from Monday that I can't let you drive but could show you around and take you out in one evening!

I'm guessing your new one happens to be his?
Only had a brief experience in one so would love to take you up on the offer! I believe you're quite close to me? I'm based in Sidcup (quite close to the south side of the Dartford crossing) and am currently limited to public transport. Happy to buy a few drinks/food in return for the favour shall send you a message through trust.Good good
I'll be coming down your way quite soon after getting it I imagine, can have an M3 photo-shoot
Man of Honour
Oh really? I know some great roads that take you high and low with great views to boot. You are gonna love it, just don't drive off the edge
Excellent, will make sure I bring the camera too

335i to e46 m3..... can't decide if it's a bad idea or not.
Financially there's not a huge amount in it. 335i worth more, servicing cheaper, currently pay £600/year for warranty.
M3, more to service, car won't really depreciate at the same rate, and I'd probably go warranty free.

Would you go auto and manual? The M3 is much more work to drive fast, but more involving and quite a lot of fun. The 335i wil be a bit dull in comparison, but also a bit more refined as a result. Not to say the M3 is a 'bad' cruiser, though.

Only one way to find out for sure, test drive one and see how you fit into the drive

I did when I was selling my S2000, drove 3 SMG's all of which had issues. 335i is a manual, and I'd be looking at manual M3s

Ah, if you were closer you'd be welcome to drive my one (manual) - If you're ever in the South Coast, give me a shout!

Where abouts on the south coast?
