• Also, go and drive a few things (I'm sure you plan to). I have never driven anything as raw, visceral and well, damn fast as the E46 M3. It'll probably cost me a bit to keep on the road but I've got a slush fund for that, it cost me less than ten large and won't be depreciating much. Every drive is enjoyment.

  • There will be plenty of driving to be done. I already have a 2 series so it would be easy to jump to a 4 series.

    When i get back from holiday in June i'm going to have a proper run up at this. The issue is that whatever i end up getting will also be used by Mrs Soul. She's going to want the auto box as she finds it easier to drive in town (to be honest, i prefer it too..) and she's not going to want something too lairy. That's why i'm looking at something with 4wd. At least i can have more power without her complaining that it's too quick for her to drive.

    I've been looking at the Ghibli all morning (the quatroporte costs more than i want to spend for a newish one) but it's slower than the BMW with a shite sat nav and very high service costs. It's very pretty though...

  • I'm going to be bold and say that an M3 provides more "Smiles Per Gallon" than almost any other car.
