Received the last post in my email and thought I'd update too. I've slowed down considerably with swapping cars often but I do have a few to add. After I sold the 95 M3, I got really bored with the ZHP. It was a good car, but it was just too numb for me and the seats were no good for long trips. I sold that and picked up a 98 M3 sedan in 2011. I just sold the M3 a couple months ago at 204k miles and bought a new Chevy SS sedan. For those of us who are unhappy with the direction that bmw has gone with their newer cars and the only new bmw that appeals to you is a $70k+ M3/M4, the SS is a great alternative. It's very close to a Holden VF Commodore, imported from Australia and sold as a Chevy. Great car and the exhaust note with the LS3 sounds incredible.

Also picked up an M Coupe (Clownshoe) in May 2014. I've always wanted one and of course absolutely love the thing. It has low miles at just over 60k, but I've put on 10k of those miles in just a year and a half. Oops.

We still have the 02 X5. 168k miles now. The wife doesn't drive it much, so the mileage has only gone up 5k in the last year and a half (based on my previous posts on here). She still loves driving it.

Additions from last post:
98 M3 sedan (manual, Arctic silver)
99 M3 'vert (manual, Estoril) - only had for about a year - sold to a friend
99 M Coupe (just over 60k miles, black)
15 Chevy SS sedan (Holden VF Commodore sold here with Chevy badges)

I am 20 years old. Been driving legally since 18.
But I taught myself to drive my Manual mr2 when I was 16 and drive on a suspended license till 18 when I was legally able to get my license I bought the audi.
And yes iv paid for my cars myself.
But the mr2 was handed down from my father who has since passed away. So I can't find it in myself to sell the mr2. But I traded my audi a4 for the 850ci. And bought my x5 not long after.
Now the 8 series is slowly getting fixed up.

Thunder, that's a very valid point, but if I had £52000 to spare I wouldn't be spending it on a car!

I've never put these down on paper before, but I should if even just for future reference.

I bought my first car in 1999, started driving in 2002. Listed in order of purchase date:

1978 Volvo 242GT
1983 Volvo 244 Turbo
1987 BMW 535is blue
1995 BMW M3
2003 MINI Cooper S
1997 BMW M3/4
1969 MGB GT
1987 BMW 535is red
1971 Land Rover Series IIA
1999 BMW 528i
2006 MINI Cooper S
2000 BMW 323cic
1997 Ford Crown Victoria P71
2002 MINI Cooper
1998 BMW M3/4
1995 Porsche 911
1989 BMW 325i
2006 Jeep Wrangler
1978 MGB roadster
2009 MINI Cooper
1998 Mustang Cobra
1992 Volvo 240
1992 Range Rover
2010 Mazda 3s hatch
1996 Lincoln Town Car
1989 Mercedes 300TE


I think that is it so far, but I went over the list three times and kept remembering ones that I left out. I usually have owned more than one car at a time. I was raised in a family that has always been in the car business. From the time I was 3 years old I remember a different car every few months. Unfortunately I've kept that going a bit, the only difference being that I have to pay for them.

I am looking for an early X5 or X3 as a do-it-all to get back to owning just one car.
