Rack is off the last while - use it for bikes

Well since its only worth 16 i may as well keep it as a run around for the wife !! Why should it be any cheaper than a 325ci anyway - there the most common ??? actually im not bothered hearing your answer

Missed all the fun on here

K100LT good luck with the new car.

touring paddy you are right seeing that Ci's are more expensive to insure as well. Nobody here takes 635csi serious. Reasons are as follows:

He only likes Volvos and Audis, he doesn't drive himself,  he pretents he understands what makes a car fast but never showed up to any outing karting or track day so....... he still ows my misus a race in here 316 since a year ago but never stands up to his word.

Most of us just ignore him.

The Ci cost more when new and is generally in more demand second hand.  The E46 Touring is more or less pointless, barely any added luggage capacity over the Saloon and doesn't looks as well either in my opinion.  It's just there for the sake of being an estate.

Listen, I'll tell you what.  We're not getting anywhere by arguing, so just agree to disagree??  (Holds out hand for handshake).

Quite a feminine car at the moment, an Audi A4 Cabriolet and a Volvo S70 2.5 10v on the side.

Ahem...  It's worth about 8 times what your car is worth.

Buying an old E34 540i doesn't buy you credibility, mate.

AHEM, moderators? The trolling and feeding of trolls has sapped the life out of this thread; for the love of my broadband can it please be locked.

Cheers,

I think it's laughable for 635CSi to pass judgement of the pointlessness of cars; a Touring will actually take substantially more luggage than a saloon due to the height of the luggage space. try putting even a small commode in the Saloon and I can put a large dog in the back of my car without being reported to the ISPCA. I can think of few cars more pointless to own in Ireland than a four-seater, convertible Audi!

Beemerchris has more credibility here than 635CSi regardless of the value of his car, which at least is a BMW,
