Do OR Don't

Go for it, if the cash is there, worry about everything else after Christmas.

i vote "DO"

The pole wasn't there when I posted before, if it was I'd 've asked where the other options were.

Hassle of converting to LPG, drop car off, pick car up a few days later, pay £1100-£1300 ish, start saving 60p/l per refill, what hassle?

I'd be patient and wait til after christmas. There will still be mk2's available then and an LPG will turn up at some point.

Use that time to save more cash to prevent borrowing money.

Life is short but I waited a year for my first mk2 180 and once I wrote it off and the ex took the insurance money, I had to wait 3 1/2 years to get another mk2 180!

Was it worth the wait. Yes. Did I need to borrow and be stressed. Nope.

Ultimately, you have decided what you want to do. But get the missus on board first, she is more important than any car.

Think I know the one your after, it seems nice but why is it so cheap? could be something hidden, have a good look and then have a think.
I made the mistake with my Mk2 of falling in love before id seen any others, first one i saw and the worst decision of my life. lost me £2k in 8months.
yes you won't loose huge amounts on it, but remember you have a really nice mk1, there are loads off Mk2's out there and they are becoming cheaper, ive found one at £2995 which im very tempted by, but do I want to give up the superior bmw for it? im not sure.
burnt once, not twice,

tread carefully, it may be good it may be bad, only you can make your mind up.

Is it one of the cars on eBay?

The black one is high mileage and the LPG conversion using a hole in the wing rather than behind number plate filler and a "fill the boot" tank seems expensive.

The gray one looks better but is much more expensive and has a tiny LPG tank, also where's the spoiler?

I still think there is mileage it getting your own car converted.

mine is a fill the boot type of tank........... makes **** end of a difference to me as the Zs mk2 boot is massive

If the black one is the one im thinking off it has all the crap stuck to it and looks naff but i might be mistaken........

My filler cap for my LPG isnt attached to any of the body work and as rare as the kit is id rather have it where it is now all it takes is some cowboy at the LPG fitting station to **** it up and your FUCKED
