One like this Eric?

The B4 has now officially been pronounced dead, the total cost of the repairs ran to over 5000 euros so the insurance company wrote it off. Picked up my new car last week, sorry to say that its not another Subaru (its a BMW), there are no good Subaru's available over here right now, the importers are not shipping them in at the moment because the market has gone to shit. I'll post up a few pics of my new car as soon as the damn rain stops, 2 days non-stop torrential rain and no sign of it stopping.
Hope all is well with you guys, i know its ages since i have been on here...

Sorry to hear the B4 is gone Eric.
Still, a BMW is hardly a step backwards.

Which one?

Has anyone here had a late ninetees BMW in any spec range? Missus is leaning towards a two door bimmer, I'm just scared that when something goes wrong the world implodes in a flash of dollar signs draining down the toilet. ?

I've never owned one Nik, but from what I remember of the few I have worked on, the parts pricing isn't too bad. There is a large range of quality European aftermarket parts available here. I do remember buying some rear discs for a 318is cheaper than I could buy them for a Falcon. IMO a second hand BMW represents good value for money.

People always say the parts are pricey,
But you shouldn't need many spare parts with a reliable BMW!

Even if you bought something else of lesser quality but the parts are cheaper, it will probably end up costing you more.

Just had the weirdest experience at the local Shell. Rocked up and half the staff were out in their fluro vests washing everyones windows... Someone offered to wash mine so i accepted. A few of the staff were actually filling up for some elderly drivers too. Walked inside to pay and was given a free 'Wicked' energy drink and asked if i wanted my photo taken? I declined that offer. Not sure what its for but i dont mind if its going to be a regular thing ...im in there most days of the week filling up work cars etc.

Must be a promo.

So are you coming or not? She won't be lonely if she does come. We are nicer than that. Otherwise, you tell HER to stay at home.

Yep of course we're coming.

Still yet to book flights and to pay Nikko though.

[B4TT]

I will talk to her too. That is if I can find her hiding behind the trees somewhere with a pair of binoculars and a camera stalker stylze. God damn stalker couple

*( c ) is optional
