That looks lush. That bi-colour interior looks stunning.
Bro the leather looks in a good way and i think that picture does the interior justice, looking much better. All in all if its a clean tidy ride then i think you are onto a winner.

I had long chats last night with the guy, he does not really know much about the cars.
He has curbed all the rims and it has a loose exhaust shield (it rattles when you turn the engine off, you can stop it if you hold the clutch down)
I will knockhim for getting the alloys redone, and the car still has a BMW warranty so i can get the heat shield sorted under that.
There is one other thing that is bugging me and that is the alarm, apparently when you disarm it the light flashes red until you start the engine. Is this normal? The alarm still works but it sounds like one of the sensors might be playing up, again this can all be done under warranty but it is just a concern.

Hey churchwa, that looks like a cracker. I love that interior! :D
How do you mean flash red, as in from when you blip to disarm it until you start it up?
Anyway, seems fairly minor if its in a good a condition as it looks..
Shuriken.
it looks good! Although im personally a fan of the red version with red and black interior :D (like in this months topgear magazine). If its still under warranty cant you get him to take it down to the dealer to get it checked? or you using it as leverage to get price down ;)?

Yeah, i will use it as a bargening tool, i will get my local dealer to sort it all out.
I have found out that it has 34k miles on the clock which is totally fine. Atleast all the niggles will hopefully be sorted by now.
I am going tomorrow, with Durgs, to check it out and hopefully drive it back. ;)
Hopefully will be a nice addition to the forum, oh yes, and the fastest car here. :) (come on Durgs i can take you!!!!!!!!)
I have decided that i am going to get my old 4 channel Alpine amp installed and upgrade the speakers as it only has a Business system. (It will be an invisible install as i dont like showing the stuff off.
BTW, Privilege have given me the best quote so far. (tried Direct line, tesco, Adrien Flux and bell direct) Do you think i will better it? They were really competative. (£1000 fully comp)

I'd buy it just by looking at the 2 tone seats... :p
It is a change from the usual M, very very rapid goes like a rocket..3 years ago my mate took me out in his one...I was speechless...but I was driving my E36 318is then :o
Personaly i think i can handle the idea of a new baby to the EvoT family :D All the best on pick up and negotiations ;)
