MAZDA 6 MPS TURBO

Price: £ 3,490
Was looking at this myself when it was listed start of march, didn't think it was in Belfast at the time though? Could be wrong but didn't have service book which kept me on the fence

Don't know if this is cheap or dear but incase it would interest someone. Theres 140k on it, stated in the ad. Dunno why it says 88 there. Lots of common problems have been rectified on it. I know nothing about it or the owner.

Looks like a scam possibly, that picture is a B7 which were only manual, the B8 were only auto and would be the year stated but 11k is way too cheap.

Wouldn't dwell on the transmission thing, alot of ads on facebook have that confusions for some reason. I clicked into his profile and looks like hes been there a while. Not sticking up for the car though, I've never heard of the man.

Yeah I know that they do sometimes mess up, but that's a picture of a 2006-08 model car and he's got 2014 on it along with the auto thing it makes me think it's iffy. For the newer shape car to be 11k it must be fooked it's a reasonable price for the 06-08 car though

BMW E34
Seems a good one at 8.5k

I keep getting tempted by these, but mostly looking for a mechanically good but tatty one to run for a few months and then break to put the engine into my E34....almost feels wrong to think it, but think it'd be the best happy medium of powerplant and E34 looks which I prefer.

That one looks to be respectable and well sorted, decent price too!

A car
Every year at the start of every summer I take a mad notion for an E46 M3 convertible in silver. It’s something to do with that Taxi movie for sure and it has to be silver.
Last convertible I was in was an E36 M3 back in the day and I nearly didn’t get out of it again alive ! Plus I felt like a right tit so I’ve no idea why I want one lol

I just found a great car on Auto Trader:

I worked with a fella that had an s2k and would have the roof down and heaters blasting in the dead of winter as long as it was dry.

I got a run in it and I “get” it now completely. Everything feels faster and more involving. MX5s with their 100something bhp made sense all of a sudden.

One exactly like that passed me earlier (and a stunning white Sierra RS500) when I was out cleaning the car. Do it! I would love one too but the constant maintenance would do my head in.

I get lots of abuse for saying things like that. I don’t care though, an E46 M3 convertible would be perfect for us all. The wife, kids and I would really get a lot of enjoyment from owning one.

Love convertibles!
That said, my folks had a few e46 soft tops back in the day and all 3 of them rattled like crazy (brand new)...
