You're so greedy, buying both Evos!! Maybe you should sell me one??? J/K I'm aswell very jealous. Finding this two M3s in that condition is like hitting the lottery. Enjoy the M3s!

How much would you pay for one of these? I reckon 80k but the two together maybe 150k sterling. What do you think?Originally Posted by Ron ///Man

Hi Guys thanks for all the really nice comments!!!
A few people have asked how did i come to own the cars? well like life its self we all need a bit of luck from time to time!! i was in a hospitality suite at the Silverstone GP last year and got talking to a chap there about cars i mentioned that i collect cars and he took an interest in the subject and went on to say that he had a couple of cars himself and went on to tell me that he bought 2 m3's for his son's when they were kids for future investments there now 21 and 22, that's why there are 2 red ones (save's the arguments i guess we all know what kids are like) and he also went on to say that he also owns a merc evo 2 and an RS200 and there all brand new and unregistered, you can imagine how i reacted my chin hit the floor lol!
So we swapped telephone numbers and he said if he ever wants to sell the he would give me first refusal i thought that's the last i would ever hear from him,then in January i got a phone call out of the blue from him to ask if i wanted to have a look at the cars and see if we could come to an agreement on price if i was interested so we made arrangements to view the cars and it turned out the guy is a very very wealthy business man so much so he's a billionaire, you would never know he's very down to earth!!! so we agreed a price and the rest is history!!! Well chuffed!!!!!
Here's a few more pics which i cant stop looking at and i cant believe how lucky i'am

Hi Bonkers,
Thanks for filling in the blanks and well done. Is your collection open to the public.

I presume you bought the Evo 2 and the RS200, then?

Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez, jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez , well I guess if you were at silverstone on a general admission ticket you wouldn't bump into someone with a few hundred thousand worth of 20 year old un used cars, so well worth the cost of the hospitality ticket!
Maybe I'll have the same conversation with you at silverstone in 20 years time!

I couldn't pass on a once in a life time opportunity!!!!
We got one of the M3's running yesterday for the first time in 20 years and gave it a quick wash off again the first time the car has seen water in 20 years and its just stunning a credit to how the cars have been stored so well in all those years!!!
MAD!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm amazed!! Thank you for sharing your story. Store these babies away and keep them pristine. There are plenty of other cars you can buy and thrash on the road if you so desire.

Saw this posted on a Mercedes forum. Nice vehicles but how come the trip meter has a lower mileage than the odometer?
