Thought I'd wait almost a year before replying....37 from Reading, had it 6
years, £450 unlimited miles as I still use mine to commute 50 miles every
day, good to see the forum picking up again....

Hi Folks - just registered and thought I'd add my vote.

Age 42, had my current M3 5 years or thereabouts, and a previous one about 4 years. Insurance £250 FC with the AA. Guess a northern Scottish postcode can work wonders on the risk front.

favourate age group appears to be 25 to 34 - obviously too young to drive one when it was new!


Next is 35 to 44 - obviously too poor to drive one when it was new


followed by 45 to 54 (which includes me - still just!) could possibly have afforded it when new, but it was too ostentatious at the time!


followed by a few in the upto 24 and over 55 groups - more sense than money (Think of the insurance!) or re-living their youth (& s*d the insurance)



OK time for a comment!

???

How's about " could have bought one but family demanded
somthing more practical"

followed by 45 to 54 (which includes YOU- still just!) could possibly have afforded it when new, but it was too ostentatious at the time!



how's about "is dreaming that he could have afforded it when new but didn't have enough cash..."
