Whats that even mean? Could you dumb up a bit for me mate as im not the sharpest tool in the shed, thank for the replies though- i think?

Very nice mate, will post some pics of my coupe as soon as the wife shows me how to!
Im new to this forum type of stuff but i'll grasp it eventually.

If you can afford it, find a nice one and stick it in a garage under a cover. I found a really nice porto blue one, and although its a 1998 model has only done 65k miles, amazing service history, brochure, press release the lot.

I work abroad a lot so dont need a daily car, so it sits under a cover in my mates garage and gets a spin now and again. Love coming back and rolling the cover off it.

I have no doubt they will go up in value if left original and low mileage, probably never mega money but im sure you will see sub <100k mile coupes in good nic going for 6-7k in a few years time.

because of course they never fitted a homologation special engine and management to a 4 pot coupe!lol

Even after hearing them for fifteen years or so, owning one for a couple, and stuffing one into the kit (nearly) I *still* think the 5-pot sounds as if it's missing one, or it's got one too many.

The proper number of cylinders for an internal combustion engine is one of:

• One
• Two
• Three
• Four
• Six
• Seven
• Eight
• Twelve

[*] Yes, seven. Count'em:

....or 48......

Now that's... silly.

Though sixteen is an acceptable number. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBKUQPjQ16I

I quite like a 10 myself.

Hardly any cars will ever make you money. Most cost you plenty. Newer cars depreciate, older cars cost you to keep them on the road. If you need a car you can trust then get a newer one. If you want fun without spending a lot of cash to start with then buy a Coupe. Will cost you in the long run though. But hey, you only live once.

The only really cheap motoring I can think if is buying *very* reliable older cars for a cheap price and changing them after a year. I bought a BMW 525d 2002 a year ago for £2750, I run it for 12 months and 15000 miles and will now probably sell it for about £3500 ish. Total maintenance: 1 tyre and 2 hedgehog resistors (£50 each). That is cheap.

Failing that get a Kia or something else with a 7 year warranty that costs peanuts.

ooooo Lovely soundtrack that Neil I wonder if I could use it on my next wedding slideshow
