The 4 litre M3 is a two seater.

yeah, but those two people get a swanky place to store their nic-nacs.

E90 M3 is 5 seats isn’t it?

What about E46 M3? Is that 4 seats only?

i can’t remember the outcome of the lengthy thread on the subject, but mine was 5 seatbelts.

Oh really? That’s good to know. For some reasons thought they’re 4-seater.

[integrale_evo]

E36 m3 has 5
E30 m3 has 4 (rest of e30 range had 5 )

All cabrios only have 4

This was mine (photo from 2011 - I had that car a long time!!) - though it looks like a 4 seater at a first glance, there is clearly 3 headrests and the third 3 point seatbelt comes from the parcel shelf and plugs in either side.

Though this may have been an option!

[integrale_evo]

Pretty sure the 3 point middle was an option. Not sure whether those without it still got a lap belt or nothing at all.

[Simon]

So Parkers has that M3 coupe as a 5 seater, so likely they were all homologated for it, whether the seat belt was specified or not.

Had a look on autotrader earlier to see if Alfa guilia cheeses are down to £10k yet.

It seems they're not ( about £45k cheapest ) but sadly for a family saloon with a pretty flat rear bench they're only 4 seaters

And although there are only four of us there are times when it's harmful to be able to carry an extra, and as both lupo and clk are 4 seaters, my compact is the only car we have that's roadworthy and can carry 5.

I've not heard it referred to as a cheese before.

[JLv3.0]

Nor that carrying an extra is harmful

I had one on demo for a few days and while the drive was nice everything else was pretty shit or annoying. Also, they are tiny inside for a car that was comparable to my former C Class and the boot is next to useless. Can't believe they made such a mess of it really.

[integrale_evo]

Come on, everyone calls it a quattroformagio don't they?

I'm guessing the other word should have been helpful, don't know if it was some sort of autocorrect mishap or just me being a spaz.

yep, I can’t pronounce the proper name.

Nice

I had a derv one too, until it got stolen (incidentally, saw it last year in the local shopping centre car park). MOT history shows it disappeared for 4 years and 40k miles. Still going past 120k now.

Bizarre thing about the 3 door ones is that the rear seats are still capable of flipping up (the "magic seats" as Honda call them) like the 5-door, but they lack the retention mechanism to keep them up. Can sort of do it still using the seat belts to hold them in place.

Nice engine Zonda, if you crash the rest of it let me know.

Though this may have been an option!

It was an option. I think it was standardised at the end of the run of them though.

You should see the engine, spotless!
