was hungover to feck yesterday morning and desided to have a look on ebay......search for the usual items and stumble across 2 hard tops in my colour, one with chrome trim and one with black trim.
i get excited as ive only ever seen one other in orient blue on ebay, sold for 750 at the begining of summer. average prices are from 650 - 900 depending upon how many people want it. left my number with the two guys selling theirs, was willing to pay 7-800 for the chrome trim one.
got a phone call at 5pm, bloke was in scottland (178 miles) and said for 600cash in hand I could have it, but i best be quick as another guy was after it too.
so, set off at 7pm last night, did just under 400 miles, picked it up, drove back, went to bed at 3am and up for work at 6 lol
really is amazing......looks better then a normal coupe now IMHO.
insides have 4 lights in C pillers, coat hooks that pop out.......handles, etc etc, can even put a roof rack on it
pics are crap, took at 7am......looks mean as feck!!! love it
random mission........result!

yeah was about 3/4 miles from where we bought it from.
yep thats the right address, knew it was something similar.
sat nav took us down some crazy road/path thing for 3 miles, right under the motorway and along some lake thing, was pitch black and very scarey!!

320ci
the 330 has silver bumper inserts and headlights, mine are black, only main difference on the outside. 320 was fast enough for me and still does 35mpg on a run (38 on way to work) over 21 miles (mainly 50mph zones)
