all rite m8 thought about that. but the chief doesnt like young lads in sporty moters so dont think that would work .hes been in the papers a lot for his speed camras in north wales. id love to put my brother in a 635 csi or some it like that to see if theyd still pull him thing gets me is he drives like miss daisy.

Sheer Jealousy no doubt - my dad used to find the same thing when he had his 88 F 318i in Zinnobar red with cross spokes.

I think it might be a wider problem, ive been pulled 4 times in the last 6-8 weeks, for an aparrent "no insurance marker" on the ANPR system.

what you've got to remember is that traffic cops play "car snooker"!

first they book a red car, then they book a black, then a red etc, in an attempt to get the glorious 147 maximum break!!

people with blue and green cas should also be wary...

luckily, white doesnt figure as it'd double the total number of cars required for the 147

:lol: :lol: :lol: honestly

that's the attitude, first the fact that you have a 320i (like me !) and now the white colour. Its good to be proud of our cars tho :D

ive had no problems in wrexham with mine when it was on the road. There abit mad in wrexham for pulling young lads over in sporty cars. especially around the uni (where im at)

Is your bro at wrexham uni? i keep seeing a nice clean red e30 in the carpark :cool:
