Very Proud to say my first car was a three year old BMW 328i sport, loved that car and missed it from the day it left me. Here's a pic.

Then bought a VW golf V6 4motion, then a clio 172 exclusive special edition, (car number 003 of only 172), last car was an Impreza RB5 (no 107 of 444) and now getting an E46 M3. Back to the beemers at last!
