petrol money
craigfowler32 - 9/8/07 at 10:24 AM

Hi folks, I am looking at buying a BEC car soon, and I would ideally like to have first hand experience of what they are like to live with - before I start the full on search. Can I live noise etc etc.

Is anyone in the Bracknell/Berks area that would be prepared to take out a passenger for a few miles so as to get an on the road experience - more than happy to cover petrol money.

Can't help with a BEC ride myself, but I wouldn't worry about petrol money - most owners will be more than happy to take you for a spin just for the fun of it
