I do miss the 335d Carlos....

Anyway, I didn't get this one in the end, I pulled out and lost a deposit. On reflection it just wasn't right for me.... and too much money for a 3rd car. and too many miles... oh well ....

Steve, that is a seriously tempting buy at that money. I think I am going to play the waiting game, maybe reduce my budget even further and see what comes along.

Most people couldn't handle the DXB anyway.

I heard that NASA were trying to buy it off you so that they could use it for extreme G force testing for astronauts.
