I haven't seen many 3.2s for sale of late and those that I have seen have been pretty ropey.

They do seem to be getting thin on the ground. Especially decent ones. I picked mine up pretty cheaply 18 months ago, and thought myself lucky as it was in nice condition.
Ive still spent a small fortune on it since then to get it just right though. When it comes to cars - "Its only money".
If swmbo reads this though, I'm a dead man walking. ;D
The magazine article doesn't surprise me tbh. Ive had quite a few people in mine who express surprise about just what a great car it is.
They assumed it couldn't compare with their two year old expensive nondescript executive saloons.

Don’t worry about saving £2 a week on your fuel bill then  :P

That's £2 a week towards the car maintenance fund. Every little helps.  ;) :P
