Yeah Dan, i imagine a dealer would insult me.

they list bikes like this at £5.5k, i'm a long way off that. i think it may stay around for a while, its all paid up till next spring but i cannot justify it beyond then. i could sorn it for a bit i guess.

See if they will offer £4k. It will go some way towards black wheels on the m3

Bike? Not as cheap as yours. I think it was just under 400?

M3 plus S2, £1400

£1400 for both seems a little steep.

But then it is £30k worth of car with £50k's worth of car type repairs.

I can't remember exactly what my bike's is - circa £160 seems to ring bells!

Happy me.
If this is the case, then £160 (fully comp) sounds about right!
