In honour of the Pub Chat revival...
Big Fat Richard Griffiths (Uncle Monty, Pie in the Sky lardon-cop and History Boys schoolboy nudge-bandit) genuinely did have use of a promotional/demo Tech 1 around the same time as he was making Withnail in the Lakes. Rumour has it that, carbs fan that he was (as in carbohydrates, not carburettors), the stiffened shocks and springs suffered premature wear, and he split the bolster in barely a week with his balloon-sized nutsacks.
He tried, while not filming, to conquer the 1 in 3 Hardknott Pass (GB's steepest road: FACT); not a good idea when you have shagged the suspension and weigh nearly forty stone. It was frosty day too, and the boot was loaded up with a whole sheep's carcass for his tea. He got literally about five metres up the pass before the engine blew up. Poor old git.

Two headblenders, couple of bags of MC Hammer, 5 litres of FFF, a 48ft bastard, a box of jumped-up custard and some soggy chimps
Here we all are adding vital infomation pertaining to E30's and their owners and then the page gets hijacked over some squeeky woman in a car which obviously isn't hers. I mean who would let someone else drive their E30? Or can't women drive and sing at the same time
Only someone with a huge wage packet like hers in Australia at the time, would have been able to afford one! They were hugely expensive, costing double what they did in Europe.
