Here's another nice BM on ebay. I'd love this but I bet it would cost a fortune to run...

Thought you might want a matching pair.

Check out the £300 E28 525, looks good for the money?

I've got to stop flipping buying cars. 

I might buy myself an E28 for my birthday.

Why not, after all E28s are so cheap.

Ebay is a dangerous place after a few beers. How temping is it just to stick a silly bid in....especially on a very nice 850CSI.......

The 850CSi sounds rather tasty but I'm glad I don't have a few grand stashed away to buy it - the other half would kill me, but it looks awesome!

I could probably afford the Z1, depending on what they have set the reserve at. I just don't like the looks though and it only has two seats. 

The 850 though is irrelevant. Even if I had the cash it would be murderous to run.

Yes, an enormous fuel bill, insane servicng costs and how much do you reckon it will cost to renew the 'soon to run out' warranty?

Cars like this always make me think of the Porsche 928. Looks so cheap on the face of it but if you include the running costs you could proabaly buy a new 330 with the same monthly out lay.....

A great alternative to a £25k saloon but not something you should buy if your budget is 10k

i want that z1, they're rare as rocking horse sheeeet. Don't think I've ever seen one in the flesh. 2.5ltrs in a funny looking (almost like a convertible baby 8 series) beamer... What are you waiting for Peter; get a bid in, 2 seater or not.

Looks to much like a tonka toy if you ask me and if i was going to get a car with just two seats it wouldn't be a BMW.

The 850 is definately drawing more support - what a headturner even though it will be expensive to run
