Re: STOLEN: My Black 2 door 325i - F938 UMP

Is it safe to assume that 5 years after the theft of your car, the wheels could possibly have been removed straight away and subsequently gone through a multitude of owners? Or is it reasonable to say the shop has something to do with the theft? This kind of lack of justice makes me sick all the sam...

Re: M6 catch it while you can

If you want to bankrupt yourself while looking good then your better off going for the old sl55 230 model with the supercharged v8 and auto box. They have similarly expensive consumables (struts leak and they are 1k a piece). Have one in my care at the moment... The ABC struts and ABC pump are obvi...

Indeed. Golovkin has already said he'd fight Mayweather at MW. I think almost every fighter at around Mayweathers weight class and even up or down a division or two would love a crack at Mayweather.

Golovkin v Cotto is the fight I'd like to see, but apparently Cotto doesn't fancy it one little bit. This would be a totally one sided bloodbath imo...

It might be 5 years too late in terms of them meeting in both their respective peaks...

Alot more rot resistant than an E30, save the trap at the front of the front wings. Check bumper chromes too, but they are av...
