£2000 motorway cruiser
Discussion
I have seen many threads discussing 'Bargain Barges' but I have a more specific question. I am running an E36 328i SE which I got for a reasonable price and I am very happy with it. We bought a Ford Cougar V6, which was fine for the commute, but it needs a new clutch or perhaps slave cylinder and release bearings so not really worth the expense. We will run 2 cars for about 2 years before buying a new car (Audi A4 3.0tdi Quattro Avant is what I want) to avoid racking up the miles. I have always had chain driven cams so have never had to worry about changing belts. However, as it is harder and harder to track down an E36 or E39 for a good price with a good level of kit I have expanded my search and have come up with these 2:

What do you think about price and are there better alternatives. I have read the threads about the MG and they are either very positive or very negative but most of the post about C70s are positive (very aware that people will always post more negative threads/issues than positive so not too blinkered!).
Thanks for your help
