Exactly what I thought too. But it was going to cost £4k+ to fix engine.

I got the loan lease paperwork for car today. It turns out I still owe £10k on loan (funny money loan agreement).
So if they got £3k for car, my company has lost £7k....

I'm tempted to see what it goes for on auction day. If you see it about let me know!

Easier to get a 320d and do that. After all its just another E90 M Sport shell with other tweaks.

Its the same box as a 320i. Gears were good on it had no probs.
The 320si uses unique brakes front and back, unique full exhaust & cat.
And obviously unique engine everything else was standard M Sport stock.

I don't regret getting it, its given me four fun years of driving.
The maintenance costs were horrendous - who cared as I wasn't paying.
Fuel economy was 27mpg combined.
The handling was great.

The saddest part of seeing it is the picture showing the engine in the boot.
Kind of says the garage just gave up and couldn't be bother to strap it back.
But I know that isn't the case as the lease company just told to drop engine in the boot.

You might say that but I had look on the BCA site and there is a few Honda's similar age with engine kaput in boot non runners.
