My 318is and my brothers 328 will be traded in. My nephew will be taking my brothers Audi to college and me and my brother will "share" the X5. We looked at a Land Rover last month, but my friend (sales manager at dealership) talked me out of it. Anyway, the X5 was traded in Sat night and my friend has kept it off the lot for me. He has a salesman bringing it to me this morning to test drive.

Allen Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1078 From: Checotah, Oklahoma Registered: Jul 2002 posted 02-29-2012 04:49 PM                     My '94 Plymouth Voyager mini van died. So a couple of months ago I bought an '03 VW Passat station wagon. Once I get this big body into it it has a very smooth ride (better that the Voyager). It has more bells and whistles than I've ever had. It will probably take me the rest of my life to learn to operate them all. Those German engineers have managed to get more "get up and go" out of that little 4 banger than I've had in any car I've ever owned including the v6s. It had only 10,000 miles on it when I bought it for $2,500 under Blue Book.  |  IP: Logged Clint Koch Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1435 From: San Luis Obispo, CA, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 02-29-2012 04:55 PM                     2012 VW Jetta Sports Wagon.  |  IP: Logged Richard Hamilton Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1341 From: Evansville, Indiana Registered: Jan 2000 posted 03-01-2012 06:23 AM                     quote: Just don't let any women near it, you're liable to lose it! Mike, I haven't had anything in my name since my divorce. Picked it up yesterday and am now trying to sell 2 BMWs The dealership could only offer $450 each as a trade in. A neighbor is interested and will pay $1000 for both, he knows the history of them and has stopped by a few times asking if we wanted to sell them. What sucks is I just spent $500 bucks on tires not too long ago, anyway I'll be glad to get it out of the driveway. The X5 is nice it's a 4.4i with a V8 and my friend did me right on the price, I've read both good and bad reviews on it. This one is a 1 owner car and serviced routinely at the dealership we bought it from and where it was bought by the original owner. I now have a new "Pussy Magnet".

Neither of the BMW's has 30,000 miles yet, so I'll have them for a while!  |  IP: Logged
