Sveba

A mid-90s BMW 323i. All original including the out-of-date BMW first aid kit in the boot and the torch in the glove-box with flat batteries.

It came with a new MOT, new Pirellis and not a mark on it. A couple of weeks later and there is a mark on it, nothing that can't be fixed but people really should have more consideration.

I didn't want a BMW because of the badge even though I've always liked them but when your criteria is: reliable, four seats, rear-wheel-drive and good fun for as close to no money as possible there is only one contender.

Now there are many days of happy motoring ahead and I feel complete again.
