Sorry to hear that, mate. I guess age is catching up with a lot of us!

2012 BMW M135i Black, 63K miles, manual, 2 previous owners (I'm the third) Full, extensive service history, with loads of invoices and original book pack. MOT August 2023 Fantastic, fully loaded spec from the factory! 2 keys Red heated leather Sunroof Adaptive suspension Adaptive headlights Pro navigation Folding heated mirrors Dual Climate Control Cruise Control DAB + loads more- please see pic of the spec list Modifications: BMW M Performance exhaust (fitted in 2013) Forge charge pipe Black grilles Rear spoiler (gloss black) Maxton rear diffuser (still have original) M3 wing mirror covers (still have originals) Heko wind deflectors This car has wanted for nothing. The service history is excellent and is mostly main dealer (logged in idrive), with independent specialists during my ownership. During this time, I have had the Valvetronic servo motor replaced under warranty (when I first bought the car), spark plugs, lower arms, gearbox and rear diff oil, front brake discs/pads, brake fluid etc etc. Last serviced at the end of October. The exterior is in excellent condition, with no rust whatsoever. There are a few minor age related marks, but nothing major at all. The alloys are excellent, all being refurbed just before I bought it. One has a 2cm curb mark (see pic). 4 X Michelin tyres with plenty of life left in them. Interior is stunning! Leather is lovely and everything works as it should. Original med kit etc in boot. The car starts first time, every time and drives as it should. Sounds fantastic. First to see will buy. I am in Gloucestershire.

I know- the same thing has already happened with the Corrado. Prices really bottomed out and now they are very healthy. The same will happen with the S3, once most of the bad cars have gone.

Keyo, don't really need a huge amount of storage space, as we have a Leon estate for long journeys 😉 I originally wanted an R, but they're too expensive for my budget + I've driven them both now 😉 pfnsht- shame it's a manual- going automatic/paddle shift this time.

:lol: There seem to be quite a few young lads hooning around in these baby Beemers. More money than sense!

Sorry dude, need the cash to put towards an M135i.

For Sale 2002 Avus Silver Audi S3 Previous owners 3 Mileage 125K MOT 30/8/21 Full Service History- main dealer/independent specialist (service book is present and fully stamped) I have owned this car for nearly 7 years- it was the replacement for my old Storm. It’s been an absolute joy to own and has been an incredibly reliable daily. It’s a truly stunning factory special order colour and is one of the rarest colours. It starts first time, every time and drives as it should. It has wanted for nothing during my ownership and has been serviced annually at Badger 5. Everything that has needed doing, has been done. It is in superb condition, with great bodywork and interior. The roof rails and door blades are completely free of rust. It already had a Stage 1 remap when I bought it. Other than that, the only other modifications are: Badger 5 TIP & twin cone filter (I still have the original TIP & airbox as well), Powerflex rear axle bushes (a massive improvement!), R32/TT wishbone bushes and N249 delete (I still have the original pipework to reverse this, if required), BBS 18” optional extra TT split rim wheels (£3000 option). The car has a fully-working Bose stereo system, with sub-woofer (in boot), 6 X CD Changer and tape deck. The leather seats are in great condition and all the electrics work perfectly. Even the cup holder works! It has 2 keys and the original Audi code tag and plastic key. I had it MOT’d the other day and the only advisories were for 3 tyres, which have been replaced with Goodyear Eagle F1's. I also have it booked in for a service and cambelt/water pump change at Badger 5 on 9th Sep. During my ownership of nearly 7 years, it has covered around 33K (under 5K a year). The following jobs have all been done on the car, during my ownership: New clutch New ball joints, wishbone bushes, drop-links etc. New front ARB New alternator New discs and pads when required 4-wheel alignment Cambelt/water pump Change gearbox oil Change rear diff oil Change haldex oil & filter Change brake fluid Replacement headlight switch I have a folder full of receipts Bad Points There was a very small area of bubbling on the front o/s arch, which I rubbed down and patched up (see pic) Wheels are perfectly presentable, but would benefit from a refurb A couple of the aircon buttons have the usual wear to the soft touch plastic All in all, this car has been absolutely brilliant- the best car I have owned by a country mile. £4795 ono Please no time wasters!

As lots of people have already stated, FB has killed loads of forums. For me, the sheer traffic of FB makes it better to sell stuff, however, Forums are better in literally every other way. I collect vintage Star Wars stuff and the go-to place for me will always be http://www.swfuk.co.uk (Star Wars Forum UK). FB has some huuuuge vintage SW groups, but the environment is so different (worse!) to a well run forum. You tend to get loads of repeated questions about basic stuff- due to the crap search, the fact that posts disappear rapidly in a busy group and the fact people are often lazy on FB and expect to be spoon-fed. There is such a wealth of knowledge available on forums, it would be incredibly short-sited for people to desert them. However, they need to move with the times- Tapatalk seems to be quite essential on here. I've never used it, but sounds like loads of people did. Toby?

Looks like a fantastic project for someone! 8) Could you please add a price ASAP.
