  1. Welcome Lee, child seat will fit ok in all models, I would go for cabriolet, but you have to know your budget and preference, if you get a car with full Service History, hpi checks etc, good luck finding new car. Alan :D
  2. Hi Guys and Gals, Looking to buy new car for work for about £2000, before I upgrade, would appreciate feedback as to what car you think would be good, need reliability most important, mpg another consideration, all ideas and suggestions warmly welcome, that is why I love car clubs, we can all help each other, all my previous Beemers have been reliable, biggest expense paid out for a set leads from a main dealer they looked good in blue, but cost over £70 from main dealer, other than tyres. Any ideas to any good places in Sussex, but I am willing to travel for a decent car, thanks my BMW family and friends, would looking for lower mileage car, as do high mileage, look forward to your replies, much appreciated in advance (if I haven't heard anything by this Christmas, I guess no-one wanted to help a fellow member/friend) lol Kindest Regards Alan :D

  15. You should always add a clause, but joint tenancies are difficult mate, only takes one person to cancel tenancy and could leave you vulnerable, you need to ask him if he wants to find a place with his girlfriend, then ask him to take his name of the tenancy
  16. You will need a bigger house to hold all these big beer holders, Dave. lol :D
