hi all, as you may know i've been wanting to sell the zed, and as i have my bike test tomorrow will be wanting a bike fairly soon. unfortunately Autotrader has produced no enquiries only lots of agency calls
and it's also in the BMWGB z3 section. The car is priced at £11955ono on autotrader is this priced reasonably?

does anyone know of combined Car/bike garages i could P/X. in the Aberdeen/Elgin/Inverness areas?

anyone fancy a P/X £8000-£8500max would consider most 328's

bloody bureaucracy, whats so wrong with holding it on the front brake and doing a piroutte?   quick, graceful and reckless  

hope you sell your car and get what you want for it Si, i see it running about, wasn't sure if you still had it or had sold it and let the numberplate go with it

Congratulations my friend, but I bet you drop it next time you try a u-turn

With all the new cycle lanes in your neck of the woods it's a pushbike you need, not a motorbike!  I was up there last week and was very surprised to see all the European money being put to good use for the eco-friendlies of Moray.

I think you might have a problem retaining your plate on a bike...  I enquired about the same thing with my bike but was informed that once a plate has been on a car, it can't be transferred to a bike and vice-versa.

thanks chas,  lol, it was probably luck, most of the people who i've spoken to say they'd look for an alternative rather than doing a U turn on sport bike (something about the bars being to close to the fairing) 

didn't know that about private plates, dam, OK need a 328/3 on an S plate then

In England & Wales this has changed in the last couple of years, and I was advised its now ok to do this.

You lot seem to have your own rules up there, most of them make more sense than the ones we have, do you still come under the taffia or do you still have your own licensing authority ?

Unfortunately same as Scotland Dad.. I think all such issues still fall under DOT and DVLA.
