Selling Car (Seat Ibiza SC) - Buying Cheaper Used Car (Lexus IS200)

Ah sorry - yes the majority of those (all beggining with an "e") are BMW models.

1999-2005ish 3 series coupe
1998-2005ish 5 series
1994-1998ish 3 series coupe (the mint m sport bit)

If you're not fussed about performance at all though I'd probably skip them all, the lexus sounds a good car for you.

It's not so much that i'm not interested in performance, I still am and always will be.
But i'm no logner willing to pay massively inflated prices for performance.

If for a few hundred quid a year I can get better performance then i'd go for it...but if it was performance or features i'd go for features.

Although, an argument against that is due to not driving much, is it not worth skipping features and just enjoying the performance when I do drive? Hmmm. here we go...lol

Go drive a 330ci - You wont be disappointed with the kit inside or the performance on offer. They are also capable of significantly better mpg than the IS - I'm biased, I think they're a great car and I like my BMW's of that era in general but definately try one.

Ok cheers. I'll make a note to check those models too and see what's going.

The overal decider will come down to what's available locally of course and being in the North East that narrows it down a LOT. Everytime i search national it says like 500...limit it to 50 miles and there are 10. sigh...and they are usualyl mroe expensive due to less competition too.

Someone in the midlands has a huge choice within feasible driving distance compared to me. Still, not much I can do about that as i can't be bothered to travel 100 miles for a used car.
