With diesel being so much more expensive than petrol, it's gonna take a lot of miles to make up the deficit (diesels cost more than their petrol equivalents too.

Here's some inspiration:

Car looks great though, I remember it from my first hoon:

I met chris harris when I worked at Alpine. We kitted out the Clio V6 he had from Renault, in fact I think I still have his mobile number on the Phone.

He was interesting to talk to at the time, he had a good eye for a bargain then when he was buying said 996.

At VW in Aylesbury they have a pair of Touregs thathave been on the fourcourt for 8+weeks now!

I see GT3 in the future but I have to see how lofe treats me next year

200bhp 320 would be nice - hope the engine lasts! Mind you Ant & Pete did the Gumball 3000 a few times in highly modified 330ds, called the D3. Did over 160mph AFAIK.

This is a pic of their first D3 GPS speed (km/h):


Ah, here's one of their second rally in the D3 (330d tuned):


Here's some info on what tuning they did:

EDIT: And speed religion is run by Ant, from Ant and Pete by the way!

Sad day Dave

A little bit of input on the ad - the pics are a bit dark which can put people off? First sunny day you can, get out and take the same pics in the sunshine... Also I changed my advert to include the tyre condition and when they were last replaced as the first question I got from people is 'what state are the tyres in'...

Such a shame Dave, but plenty of time to ponder buying yourslef a little V8 powered week-end toy

What do ya think?

[bmw2002]

Leggy on the miles, but with a new engine 20k ago, and still under warranty, its not too bad, not too sure about the colour though.
