If it's after Cantona then it may be acceptable but I'm not sure guys naming cars is ever acceptable and certainly with guys names!

Agree with the name but it is after Eric Cantona as a homage to my dad who passed away late last year. Eric Cantona was our favourite player and the car is red!

Great thing about a second hand car is that it's all run in so you can put your foot down straight away.

Thanks mate

Ok fair enough.... Let's hope it doesn't et all Gallic and temperamental then, or even worse, unusable for 9 months!

Congratulations. A major car purchase SHOULD be a big think. Heart plus head needed. Looks like you got it right. Enjoy.

Loving the Eric reference then buddy, what a joy it was to watch Eric play. Who will ever forget the brilliance, the arrogance and just the resulting changes he inspired. Proper legend.

Jobs a good-un. Well done mate glad you sorted it in the end.

Well done, and of course Melbourne Red is just the best colour IMHO

The 330d 'hearsel' is of course bread & butter here so you're amongst good company
