That's uncanny, I had a very similar experience except I was in a 318 touring at the time and matey was in a mini cooper. He was tailgating me so hard in the outside lane that he didn't notice the police car in the inside lane. I bottled him up a bit with a minibus in the middle lane and timed pulling over to "let him past" just right so he ended up doing a showy zoom past the police car. On came the blue lights and I chuckled along at 70.BMracing wrote:Its usually mondeos and vectras that drive up my arse on the motorway, often while i'm innocently overtaking. I find people in exec mobiles drive more maturely (generally!).
I usually respond by decelerating a bit and delaying pulling over for a few more seconds after finishing my overtake.
After slowly wafting over to the inside lane I look right to see a fat white shirted man making a rude hand gesture. Upset, I drop a cog and unleash the overwhelming power of the m20b25 as he tries and fails to angrily floor it past in top gear in his forgettable diesel hatchback.
Then I brake violently down to 70 as we approach a gatso, tw*t in vectra doesn't notice it and continues to press on.
Flash.. flash.

I have to say that the worst drivers on the road all seem to drive black X5s. Don't know what it is about the X5, but they always seem to be driven exceptionally badly.Cloud wrote:I don't see the E30 as a typical BMW. When I think BMW driver I think about the posh knobs in Seven series, rich w**kers in X5s, twentysomething hotshot players in Z4s. (I don't know any of those kinds of people. The people I know with Sevens, X5s, and Z4s are just ordinary nice people.) The E30, as an image, is driven by sensible 45 year old women with medium sized dogs and crow's feet, or tall goons in expensive jeans who prefer caning the fury out of the machine to just carpark diffin. They're not accurate stereotypes either, but the point is that they're not BMW stereotypes. The E30, the 2002, and the M1 seem to avoid the curse of their badge. I think.
I agree with JhonnoJesus325iTouring wrote:Ay! Watch it! Not all French car drivers are helmets,I find in the R5 it's everybody who wants to bully me out there,however,i'm in a thirty quid car,no one f ucks with me,not even artic drivers,I've "owned" a lot of people who thought they could,tail gate/cut up/pull out etc etc etcJhonno wrote:French car drivers are the complete Helmets!!

oh my god someone who likes fiats well i suppose someones got toMorat wrote:Slagging is fun, but I own both. There's very few E30s faster than a Fiat Coupe turbo. 20V has 220bhp out of the box and weighs about the same as an E30. Mine is a 16V (integrale engine close as damnit) and at 190bhp it will leave an E30 325 for dead. Don't talk to me about "I'd lose it in the twisties" because you won't.Alex wrote:to be honest i will have to agree with that, newer cars dont seem to rust as much
but i still like to slag them off

E30 is RWD fun, doesn't have torque steer, is easy to work on DIY without losing all the skin on your hands and I love it. But don't race a Fiat coupe, most of the drivers hate BMWs with a passion and love the fact that most people think they're slow-assed Alfa GTVs.
