Besides CSL, what you got ?

[Yanto_csl]

It's my only car as I don't need a daily. But I am beginning to realise I do need a snotter for duties which I want to stop using CSL for (weekend trips to tip, supermarket, motorway trips around the country to friends and family)....will start looking in next 6m

Needs to be fun, quickish but a motorway cruiser, able to carry load and something I can park on the street in East London with peace of mind.

Thinking 330d, Impreza wagon / a hatch Like a Golf GTi

Only stipulation is I need SMG / DSG type thing for missus.

What do you use ?

[shimmy]

Go for an M135i hatchback.


If you bid for Elms one for a week test.

Got a 320d auto touring which the wife uses (awesome car) and just put a deposit down on a V10 Audi S8 for myself :-D

I think the local bruvs may clock that mate...a little pricey still.

Debadged black/black V10 are lush mate.....and silly money now....but I think the insurance would kill me parked on street in E14.

Good call though, enjoy that......Gallardo in understated clothing :smokin:

Got a E91 335d touring.

Great car. Only problem is the gearbox. They're all autos. It's ok and does the job as a daily, but annoying after the CSL's SMG. Always changes up whether in sport or not.

I've got a Yamaha Nouvo scooter in Thailand

135cc but bored out to a 158cc auto box :whistle:

Matt black and Brembo's front and rear......

Will do 120kph and cost 200 baht (4.40gbp) to fill up for the week :-D:-D

[Alx007]

I have a Fiat 500 Abarth EsseEsse.

We bought a Megane GT Line diesel for my wife and I love it. Quick, surprisingly good in the corners and nobody will bother with it wherever you park. Looked at a Golf GT diesel and chose the Megane over it.

Had a 320d sport with DSG from Elms on loan and it was good.

[cslgirl]

The husband has an 04 e46 318i which I use when he is home if needed :-D

[glendog74]

I use a 123d for daily duties but its too small in the back so currently looking to get an E91 330d touring.

I had seriously been considering grabbing a nice E61 M5 touring as their used prices are dropping fast but their average mpg figures are simply too scary, lol! :119:

[Bounce]

Audi A4 Avant 3.0 Sport Quattro Auto,but usually in my Transit Tipper:smokin:

[chicken]

04 330i (cause I'm anti diesel) auto msport touring , under 20k miles on it

[Jon8710]

Just bought myself a new 320d sport plus E92 for the motorway slog,
Also running a 328i e36 fully track preped for the track day jaunts, I'm of to snetterton on Tuesday if any ones about !!

[shimmy]

I'm of to snetterton on Tuesday if any ones about !!

It was a toss up between Sneterton Tuesday and Donington Monday.......and Donny won!


My daily snotter is a 740i Sport with serious chance of bein written off as soon as the insurance pays out?... Thinking I'll be getting a 5 series Touring, prob a 520d MSport as the fuel cost is so good (but would rather have the 535 tbh. M 740 is now doing 14k a year so I could almost pay for the monthly premium with the saving in fuel cost
