Talk me out of it.

You are young.
Life is short.
When you get older, will you proudly show people photos of your carpets/plastering/painting.

Or..................
 
Hello

Not sure a 4 pot in that will move too well if your bothered? 97K miles is close to the 100k that puts a lot of people off when you come to sell it. Oh and its raining a LOT at the moment so not much chance of using it roof down :)


Other than above it looks nice.


Work on the house can wait :)
 
Don't frighten him off!

Who the heck wants to drive fast in a cabriolet? I thought the idea was to be able to roll down the roof and cruise so every one can see you...
 
Your right, I've had a few convertible and you do tend to swan round in them cruising :)
 
No!! The 4 pot does not marry up to the autobox well from the ones I have driven and was the reason I bought the coupe. 4 pot supercharged engine with a manual box is great a little raucous and harsh at times but what a growl !

Oh sweet music and the whine as the engine backs off as you horse it through the gears...

And thats just a 200K....

That reminds me, there's a CLK that needs its motor testing just about now :devil:

It might be a little bit "girly" for a bouncer...

Maybe you should get one of these instead? :dk:

I need to move out of the stix, so the work on the house needs doing.
Young . . . . I'm 43 !
Yes i'm a bouncer but my licence expires in a year and a half and was thinking of giving it up.
Need the extra seats for the kids.
Think i will go and have a little look tomorrow.
I don't drive fast so take off speed is not high on the list.
Why did i have to look in the Devils car book. :wallbash:

Good lad!!!!!!

Trust me, 43 is nothing. I'm 54 and have a convertable and a motorbike.
Live life to the full and grow old disgracefully :)

edit: oh, and take inspiration from one of my heroes

Don't do it fella. Think how much time you could spend on DIYclub.co.uk instead.
