Fond memories of the V6 SVE we had for the Scumball donkeys years ago. All round great French barge, with a silky engine.
That looks great 8-)
Made me see what else is there with the same or similar engine. Not sure if these are any good

Goddamn these are gorgeous. £3k with 2 days to go, wonder what it'll go for in the end, none below £16k on PH.

Unpopular opinion, but I prefer the look of FC RX7s.

This caught my eye today, not for the car, but the fact it states "high miles" in the title. How high is high enough that a dealer thinks it's worth drawing attention to ?

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/274124479185

324,820 miles in just under four years :-o
That's an average of 228 miles a day (date first registered 08/01/16) if it has been driven until today.
Almost certainly an Uber/private hire car.
No way, its far too tidy

Unpopular... I'd say closer to unique. :shock:

yeah, It’s probably something really specific - like a box of paperwork/contracts/etc that have to be physically delivered from one site to another daily or something.

The back is ok, but the front has a chronic overbite problem.

Love it, but can't help but feel that cars like these are irreverent these days.

15 years old, expensive to fix, £575 p/yr VED, 18MPG (ok this one is LPG'd), expensive tyres and servicing.

A mate of mine bought a project 7er off our old boss. It’d been sat for about 5 years but he’s bringing it back to life. He paid £500 and is entering a scumball-type rally with it next year. It’s a “poverty” spec 745i but the kit it has is pretty cool, especially the billion-way adjustable seats.

He’s making into a Mad Max MFP Interceptor tribute for the rally with a few acres of vinyl wrap and a light bar :lol:

That'll be £20k once it's photographed on a white background !

The Cayman's brakes look impressive, presumably upgraded? Other than that, not great 😆
