Not many people looking for M3s with the priice of tax these days.. I wasw on the lookout for an E36 bmw convertible with all the M extras. Ended up getting a 318i convertible, All the m extras, M6 wheels, full bmw service history etc for handy money. comfortable etc. for a while.

The convertible M3's were going for about a grand extra is all and the oinly thing that put me off was taxing it, insuring it would have been easy.
