I can see the classifieds already... am I missing something? (It's just been some guy trying to sell a BMW for the last while...)

Right then. Seems it's possible to get a 182 for less than 2 grand but... ...they are sheds. First one had no history, high mileage and an engine that practically leapt out of the engine bay when started. Also had a swimming pool for a boot. Next one was advertised as having had a cam belt and...

Now that is VERY nice and a definite improvement. ...Does he only do Clio wheels? And thanks to everyone else for the input - I definitely remember my 172 was in need of some sort of engine/gearbox mount work so I expect I'll do that dogbone mount to whichever car I land upon. I will comment on...
