Hello Nicholas, very sorry it has gone, but it needed a full rebuild really and I haven't got the stamina for that, rumour from the collection bloke is that it will live in a reception area of lawyers, I will believe it when someone sends me a picture of it...
That was a lovely car. The champagne paintwork was perfect. To keep and fix, or to sell? Depends what it is, right? Declasse, they call it. Or "not economically viable". There's a point where they mean us, and not the car. At that point, you've got to know what you're doing. And if you don't, just carry on anyway, like the dude in Falling Down.
Lovely car, miss it already, but circumstances mean that rather than corrode in the garage it moves on. If this was a few years back I would have retro modded it to really bring it up to date, just can't right now.
Sad to see it go - time to sell my shares in Holts.. Seriously, if you see anything you like for sale up here in my area, let me know, and I'll get the torch and mat out.
Thanks Kenny I'll certainly make use of your professional services if I struggle to get by with just the two cars. I', not sure whether to get something small to stick in the garage or just learn to live without a BMW in my life. If you get an E number in stock do give me a call...
😢
Yes worst decision ever. I will drop you an email, hope you see them...all the best James
Sad to see that car go. It seems to have served you well over a number of years now. Hopefully it will live on for many years with a new owner.
