Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday
Bit of a busy weekend so I didn't get round to posting this on Saturday.
7 years ago, on 27th March 2003, I pulled out of Sytner in East London as the very proud owner of a B3S Touring in Oxford Green II
7 years and 169k miles later, I am still the very proud owner of the same B3S Touring and cannot think of any other car that I would like to be driving right now

Re: Happy Birthday
I almost went down that route when the new one first came out but, to be honest, I am still completely in love with mine - even if cashflow were to permit a change.Misko wrote:What about another B3s touring? with few additional words in the model name like biturbo and allrad
There is more than enough power, I am not a great fan of the E9x interior design and everything still seems to be bolted together the way it should be - so why change?
I am treating her to a refurbished set of wheels this week and I plan to spend time over this summer working through a top to bottom valet - yes, I am prepared to get my hands dirty with clay bars and the like
What I failed to mention earlier is that she was my birthday present from me to me 7 years ago - so it won't surprise you to know that it is actually my birthday today

You may already know, the Sytner dealers in East London is no longer open. My b10 started its life from there also.

Happy many returns Charles, long may you entertain us.
Janet would be so happy if I could keep a car a year never mind 7 years, truly a marriage made in heaven.
