any old Honda Fireblade or an old Kwak ZX9R

62 quid a month and the insurance will be nothing most likely.

I've always wanted a bike, but I also don't want to die.

I Just saw one of them!

Does yours have a sort of glass fishtank shenanigan going on where the front bumper ought to be?

Flash ****s, the pair of you

Not sure about fish tank... It's like a secondary grill with a honeycomb mesh. It certainly is in place of where a bumper ought to be!

Let you off. This one definitely had a glass-type arrangement going on there. The grill though rather than the bumper.

Perhaps this one belonged to Tim Westwood or Liberace or someone like that

Wish I'd taken a photo of it now, didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings though.

Likewise. I always wanted one but never managed to speak with an owner who avoided taking a spill on their arses at some point. Too many cars around these days too.

Z4 M40i is impractical as f**k (but lots of fun). Treacherous to drive in bad weather, pot holes feel like bullets to the gut, it's so low it's really hard to judge space such as entering or exiting those stupid gates at Westfield Carpark where the curbs are so damn high and narrow... Main issue though is watching my dear Mum struggle to get in and out because it's so low. Just a spontaneous buy with not much thought.

Need a second car as a daily. Not looking to spend a fortune. I have found a DS9 E-Tense only 2 years old and 25k miles on the clock. Proper luxurious but because it's a DS and they are not cool it's only ?16k! They are normally 45k new. Crazy depreciation but I don't really care. Viewing it on the weekend.

Any other suggestions of what I should look at? 18k budget.

Wife has just got a 20 plate BMW X1, it's so nice to drive, beautiful auto gear box (so much nicer than my A-class).

Does your Merc have those toggles by the steering wheel for gears? My girlfriend has a Merc and I absolutely despise those toggles. No gear stick.

Wife has a GLA with that system. Absolute ball ache. You can easily engage it by mistaking it for the wipers, ( on the right in other cars )leaving you floundering around in neutral.
You then have to touch the break before choosing reverse or forwards.

Yes, had the car a year and just about got used to it.

The break thing is a massive pain!
