Recommended it?
Yes
Those of you who know the reviews that I have written, will probably be wondering by now, how I manage to get to drive so many cars. Quite simply, it is by knowing the right people. I have some friends who work in car finance, and due to the nature of their work, they get a different company car once or twice a week, cars that are generally pretty exclusive (but not always), so you can probably guess that I get to drive a great deal of cars ? expect to see many reviews from me!
One of the more sporty cars that I have drive, is the BMW 8.50CSi, which was surprisingly, being sold for a mere $27 200! That, is probably one of the very few qualms that I have about the 8.50 ? the death defyingly steep depreciation.
The one that I drove, came with a full service history ? something that I recommend that nobody should buy a second hand car without.
It tends to be a bit thirsty (giving you only about 22mpg), but would you really care, when you?re driving such a beast of a car?
As with the Gallant, it grips really well, and if you didn?t know better, you?d think you were driving something a great deal smaller.
Some people think that this car is a bit dated, but my personal opinion (and this is ePINIONS) is that it is timeless! It may look a bit ?boxy?, but cars that are too rounded (i.e. the Chevrolet Camaro) look too tacky to me.
It?s a comfortable beast, that likes a drink!
