Removed from sale

Either I’ve lost touch with values or that’s giving it away - where’s the catch?!

Oh - and selling your car on a first post doesn’t exactly endear...

No catch mate. I have an itch for an e46 m3 and I can’t justify keeping 3 cars. The rs4 has always been used as my weekend car. I have receipts for all the work that has been completed for peace of mind.

Having had 5, I'd keep the RS4

Of course, if you have the urge to go sideways around roundabouts, and go nowhere in the snow, M3 all the way

GLWS.

Haha sounds fun. I have a feeling I may come back to the rs4 at some point. I want to try a few other cars first.

I hear you, it was the other way round for me I went M3 > Boxster > M3 > EVO6 > M3 > S4 > M3 > RS6 > M3 > B5 RS4 > M3 > 996 > M3 ..... Now looking at RS$ Avant lol.

Bump.

If you've not had an E46 before then find a good one and research. They've lots of big issues that may need sorting I've had two, loved both, but the rs4 is a better car.

Been looking at them for a while. I know of all the major issues that need sorting. It’s just something that I would like to try out. I know I may regret it but oh well. We only live once.

Just had a major service including spark plugs at CM Tuning.

New MOT today. Passed with no advisory items.

I travelled 160 miles to view this car the other day. Nice bloke selling it, however when taken for test drive it had horrendous knocking from the offside rear wheel. Seller stated he had never heard it before and suggested it may be something in the boot.
Having returned from test drive I could clearly see that the gap between the top of the tire and arch was significantly less on the offside. Also a blow on the exhaust.
Strangely the previous DRC had been replaced In 2018 with gen parts fitted by Indy.
Looking at MOT.s it's done approx 10k since this was replaced..??? And there was the paperwork to support this

Sport button worn on steering wheel?
Discs and pads seemed ok

Very disappointed tbh as first impression is was a nice car.

Having left without it, the seller contacted me to say his garage confirmed leak from rear shock.

Surely that and the exhaust would have been picked up straight away on MOT?

Bent MOT me thinks

The guy is a car dealer btw, openly said so
