So why a 645...Wanted a V8, wanted some comfort and wanted a coupe and where else can you get all this for 7k..Amazing value for money at the moment..
.....And what a car. Different beast to the M3 of course........Drove 100 miles home in her yesterday and loved it...Smooth, comfy, fast and looks bloody stunning (well to me it does but I know looks divide opinion)......
So why did I pick this car.....
Good bits
Paint work is good with a deep shine to her.
Interior is almost spotless
77k on the clock and most I was looking at in this price bracket had 100k on the clock.
Serviced last month at a cost of £600
New pads, disc last Jan
Some of the issues associated with these cars have been sorted with receipts - Sump, oil leaks....
One thing I wanted was Logic7 HI Fi but the advert never mentioned it. To my joy it does have it...What a sound system...Think it was around a 2k option...
All tyres around 80% to the good....
And she is a joy to drive....Very different to what I'm used to.
Not so good
Wheels need a refurb as whoever refurbed then didn't do a good job and there is a corrosion on them.
Some stone chips on the front and a few on the passenger door.
A few age related marks on back bumper.
Was not concerned about the bits above as I used this to my advantage with the price and will eventually get all this done. In fact I am very pleased with the price and my purchased but as a matter of urgency must get those wheels done as that will bug me until sorted. Will also be getting the chrome around the window changed to black and the front grills black as well....maybe
So all in all a very happy man.....Lets hope it stays that way the car is reliable..Now to get her is the same condition as I had the M3....Still can not believe that you can get this much car for 7K....
