Just brought a E36 EVO Coupe
Discussion
It's fantastic. Any tips or pointers I should be on the lookout for?
I brought it through Pistonheads from a guy called Darren Iles and it seems to have been very well looked after. Believe it or not this is my sensible car I've also got a 4.2 Cerbie. Chalk and Cheese but both great.

Hmmm, as I said chalk and cheese. The EVO is much easier to drive quickly, slowly in traffic where-ever really. It's a much better developed package as you can imagine better suspension, handling, brakes and finish. Like I said FANTASTIC! car.
But, the cerbie is much much more fun to drive. And, for posing it has to be the Cerb it makes you feel special like no other car I've been in.
Monday morning for work and shopping later it has to be the BMW it's so effortless. But, come the weekend or sunny summer evening's I'm going to take the cerb every time. Sorry guys...

Steve, glad that you are enjoying it!
I know what you mean about easier to drive, the new cerb is taking some getting used to.( but loving it!)
Thanks again for your help last friday, it certainly put me at ease having an objective view on the car.
Have done about 600 miles & no trouble.

Hi Steve
Cool, I have just bought the replacement for my Cerb Speed 6 - its an M3 as well. Spec is 6 mth old, Topaz blue with grey leather, Convertable with SMG box & fully loaded. I cannot believe how much fun it is, did not fancy the SMG box until i drove it and all in can say is WOW! I had a one hour test drive on sat am and got my cheque book out straight away. I was really close to getting a 996 which would be run alongside my current 330ci, but once i test drove the M3 just fell in love. I have traded the 330ci in against it as well so financially its quite a sensible decision as opposed to running a 996 & 330ci, the M3 has the best of both worlds! Got to wait til Weds pm till I collect it though!
Glad to hear that you received the pedals and thanks for the cheque.
Cheers, Kris

Kris,
It was a pleasure doing business with you sir ;-)
I reckon you made the right choice re : the Porsche. I drove a couple and are not worth bothering with unless you can afford a turbo (which I can't). BTW if this sounds like nonsense to people, don't worry, it probably is. I'm starting to get forum overload or something. I keep bumping into the same people on different forums replying to questions on different subjects. I managed to start that M3 debate on the Yahoo groups some guy ended up replying to an M3 question on the Cerbie list.
