Either way has their advantages / disadvantages. Being someone who
makes their living from eBay, my personal preference is to start low
as it gets people hooked into the auction. But then a reserve equally
puts people off bidding.

Have fun with the M3 - what a car! I've driven a couple, they are
just like big go-carts! Still not sure about the SMG gearbox tho.

My uncle received his new M5 a few weeks ago - ouch! The V10 sounds
just like a diesel on tickover tho. - very weird.

Something I really miss with my Audi is rear wheel drive of my former
BMW's - I should have gone for a quattro!

Matt.
