My New Car

[fnkhan68]

For those of you who know my beloved 1992 260e was broken into and subsequently was written off by my insurance company, after 6 long weeks of arguing with Norwich Union they paid me out £1800 which was a improvement of the £800 initially offered. Yesterday I bought a K reg w124 320e for £1600 including 9 months road tax and 12 months Mot with a Fsh and 110k miles, the car is not as clean as my 260e as 2 of the arches have some bubbling but it drove really nice and tight. There is a few niggles which need attending to but pretty happy with the purchase. Here is the spec on the car.

Sounds nice. Although I'd correct that typo where you said you'd done 75 on the motorway.

Cheers,
