[Jacko]

seriously considering buying my uncles 530d its 2004 and 67000 miles....gunmetal gray...

any one know much about them?... care to share?

it will cost me 15k and then there is insurance...so it needs to be worth the dolla if im to go for it.

[Clouds_mate]

Yes i know it isnt the same shape. just sharing my love for a bigger car.

[Clouds_mate]

and another. Would seriously love an audi with the extact same wheels.

http://members.shaw.ca/nemod/myaudi.jpg

[Jacko]

yea its the size of it appeals to me most...looks awesome...all standard except it has new 18" m class wheels...not sure what they are actually called though...

needs to be reliable as ill be paying this of for a good few years so i dont it blowing up on me after a month or so..

[Jacko]

considered an audi a4/a6...they are nice cars but they are imo dad cars and a touch less suave than the likes of the 530d...

I really like the A4, so much i would even buy one tomorrow if i had the chance. Lowered on BBS wheels. Dribble.

Its all about the big car with some classy rimage. period

[leeroybrown]

excellent cars police use them up our way

great spec to

diesel power in this case ftw

[Jacko]

the new ones i would have...but the older ones...ie. the ones i could perhaps afford...are not as suave.

[Clouds_mate]

Tis his 'mate' I've been a nosey cunt of him and his cars for a while, followed him in a serial internet stalker kinda way.

Got a link on my works PC to some of his photohosting, guys seems to do alot of photoshoots with his mates all with sexual cars.

Kinda puts a downer on taking pictures of mine and marks saxos in a carpark.

i like the new m tech models but not the normal ones, they're a bit too common. We have a 3 series BMW and were selling it just now cos it handles like a piece of crap, cant even get it out of the drive way in the lightest covering of snow!!
Would still have a new M5 tho, much to Scott's disgust lol

right... from time to time cars do need bits replacing, they need servicing, they need taxing and insuring... With that Beemer welcome to the world of expensive running costs regardless of the fact it gobbles diesel.

Be careful man, especially if you're going into a shed load of debt for it. At 67k miles it'll be needing a cambelt change soon... are you going to able to afford the £700 for that? what about the tyres? are they new or do they need changing soon? I'd budget for about £500-600 for a replacement set like.

considered an audi a4/a6...they are nice cars but they are imo dad cars and a touch less suave than the likes of the 530d...

My dad had an A6... luxury. tbh. got to drive it once and my god you cant describe the feel compared to that of a saxo. even just the feedback from the steering wheel felt amazing.

awesome.

litterally havent tought of any of that stuff...will see if he will do what needs doing before i buy it...hopefuly within the price...will have to have a talk with him about all the running costs etc...he is in no hurry to sell so ive got plenty of time to decide weather i can afford it really or not.

dont think ur ready to buy it then tbh, there simple things that must be thought about and it will cost a fortune to run, so make sure it doesnt sting u if u buy it..

[Jacko]

offer only came up today....

[Jazz]

Buying a big engined beemer, especially if there is work to be done (belt replacement etc...) is going to cost the bomb. But for what its worth, the 3.0d engine is very, very good, practically makes the 3.0 petrol invalid. Massive torque, smooth ride, plenty of power across the rev range and very good economy considering its size and weight. Plus open any car mag and you're bound to be swamped by 'this beemer handles amazingly' lines all over. RWD means good balance and its relaxing too. Good alrounder springs to mind.

Agreed, thats one epic M3. Those wheels were practically made for those arches, like a perfect fit. The engine spec is fearsome.

ever since that handshake in 05 we have been inseperable...im guessing he'll be right up for giving me 15k...

What car you getting now Jacko?

[Jacko]

smart car iirc.

[Jacko]

how long realistically should i pay a loan of over? 5years?

[Karl]

3 years.
no way youll want the car longer than 3?

[Jacko]

its not like ill be able to trade up though...a 530d is probobly as good as it gets for me...

[Robb]

3 years, deffo.

[Jacko]

that will bump up the monthly repayments....fuck.

going to bank next thursday to see about said loan...should be ok.

also, noticed x5's are going for next to nothing these days...if i fail to get the 530 ill be avin one of these.

[Barry123]

[Jacko]

is a 15k loan too much at 19?

Not if you can afford it, afford the running costs of the purchase (dont skimp on services etc) and can still live the life you want to.

No.

got to be on a good income and have excellent credit rating to get a 15k loan at 19

credit will stop being given out so easly soon, credit crunch and all that

unless you're earning 20k+ and have zero other outgoings (no food, rent, drugs etc) then yeah go for it man.

He has a rather large wallet then! man I envy people like him :(

[Japman]

cant see you getting a 15k loan tbh

[AdamW]

15k loan and repayments which leave you with no social life.....you would be looking at paying back around 20k mark over 5 years...by that time the car would be worth 7-8k

[JBVTR]

Have you considered an older shape 325 or somthing along them lines. Deprications going to be a kick in the nuts on that thing in 3 years time whereas you can mint older one thats done its depreciation for a 3rd of that price.

[Japman]

if you want the big excuctive look

get the 7 serious

they are cheap and look pure sex gangster type cars

[GrantW]

Not read the whole thread, but going from a saxo to a beemer, speaking from experience, the fuel bills go up, part prices go up (60 quid for 2 wee sensors :wacko:), I was £220 for 2 new rear tyres, I could fit a set of 4 Eagle F1's to the saxo for like 180 or something like that!

But the difference in class is unbelievable, so much smoother, comfier with full leather, steering feel is great and just feels a lot more solid. I can adjust my seat up and down, and flick an extra leg rest bit out as well, just loads of wee touches make it a much nicer car to drive.

[CampDavid]

Getting a 15k loan will be a nightmare unless you have a good income + a house at 19

[Delboy75]

mate have a look on autotrader, you'l be amazed at how many nice beemers you can get for half what your wanting to pay.

I love beemers tbh, running costs are high tho if you want to look after it properly.

Don't get a loan for 15k, you would 100% end up regretting it.

[AlexR]

Wouldn't get anything bigger than a 3 series, they are big heavy cars and nothing can cover that up. Their engine's aren't overengineered like they used to be either although they are very well designed. They are very expensive to service and maintain too.

[sim69er]

i work for syther bmw and there a nice car altho when looking to buy one, not alot goes wrong however when it does its stupidly expensive and when you come to service it will be alot of £££

we charge £300 for one of your first service's which are really basic like oil/filter etc,

also mpg round town is shocking i used a petrol one to do a post office run and driving back i only managed 22mpg :shock:

altho plus points they are uber comfy and big pimpin which i love

[Jacko]

been doing a bit of sniffing arround for insurance...very few will insure me...the ones who will are giving me quotes for like 4k+...

ALSO...its a fucking automatic....should this or sould this not put me off?

[Danr]

I wouldn't let an automatic put me off. Casual big car like that doesn't need a manual gearbox to rag through. Nice casual automatic ftw.

My friend dean has a nice e36 323 automatic. Fooking casual to drive!

Also, £15k is alot of wedge mate.

it will be a semi auto box ie you put it into drive then if needs be, they have paddels on the steering wheels to change the gears with.

what about a 1 series? like a 120d?

[Jacko]

starting to doubt this whole loan thing now, 9.9% apr...means £315 a month over 5 years...and im paying back like 19k over all...this isnt including insurance...running costs etc...

and as said ill not make half that back in five years...

this is a fucking awfull idea...

thats what the coffee smells like.

[Danr]

you can get an a4 for about 5k.

[Jacko]

i only like the newer a4's

[Danr]

You can get a newer a4 for 5k. ;)

A guy at work had the a4 tdi automatic. Was quite nice. Not rapid but a real comfortbale car.

[Robb]

newer a4s would only be slightly more.

smart as fuck.

i got one in my mums drive, needing some minor work, there really nice to drive but for me thats bout it and this sums it up !!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5nzEax87lw&feature=related about the 8m.30sec mark lol rep mobile


my freelander is practically a bmw anyway - bm commisioned the go-ahead to build it and it has the 2ltr common rail engine !!!

[AlexR]

Don't get an auto, auto boxes last a lot less time than manuals, they use more fuel and aren't as quick.

Get a 320d Msport, then at least you get awesome looks and handling, acceptable running costs, and it won't depreciate as it's desireable.

Although TBH i'm perfectly happy with my fabia, could have got a damn nice 3 series for the same money too but didn't like the size or cost of running.

[jonezy]

went for a spin in my mates, 57 plate one but jesus, it goes like fuck.
