Might have a replacement for the fronty
Well, the fronty maybe going at the end of the month
Very good friend of mine is getting rid of his BMW 316i compact
Hes had it for 13 years and has never skipped servicing or cost to keep it up together
On a M reg so getting on a bit but as he has his own company and is driving a works van to save costs - he never drives it anymore
Has got 180000 on the clock but as i said - he has looked after it and has been to dick levett bristol for all its works
£250.00 with 7 months mot and 2 months tax - bargain me thinks

Bright red aswell
Going to be slightly better mpg than the fronty - filled it up the other day and cost me £99.68p and that was the day before the duty went up
nearly fainted at the pump!!!!!

Re: Might have a replacement for the fronty
Good lad, you know it makes sense! Must admit, the compact styling doesn't do a lot for me and as Rob says you will notice the power difference, but hells bells will it be cheaper to run! You'll be able to start saving towards that respray for the Toofah!
Reckon you could afford to throw the Frontera away and still be better off!

Re: Might have a replacement for the fronty
Its never been very good on the fuel since day one but was a cheap motor in the beginning - very bad mpg even when working right hence not may 2.4's around
