I avoid that phone at all costs! Things that have been seen, cannot be unseen!!!

Wasn't a fan of the M3 but I like this. (I did go to E38 so maybe I'm still infected :P )

Saw this at the westside show on Sunday, along with the Orange beast 8)
Both properly sorted motors and spotless in the flesh :cool:

That is a thing of beauty! Love the louvre on the back window.

Indicated rpm is out. My feet always rip the underdash panels off. So just take them out of all my cars.

F0000k the idle ! I love a bit of interracial :D BUT fitting nasty dirty bronze rear quarters is a step too far ! :eek: I recall your wanted ad. What happened to the originals ? :?

I don't know where they are, but I will find them and I will refit them. I hate the rear quarters right now :x

I saw this on Sunday morning when I was coming back from Southampton, you were behind a low Beetle, about to turn off at a junction.
I wanted a proper look but I was chipping it in the 3rd lane.

Some great idea for a convoy. 3 bmws with over 1000bhp between them being led by an aircooled beetle at a top speed of 54mph. Nearly nodded off a few times

Am sure you can get a pcb plug in for the dash clocks to adjust the rpm

Not my cup of tea (personal taste) but appreciate the effort that has gone into it.

Black/silver numberplate is just begging for a pull from the police. Just be a bit wary as I know some police forces are getting hot on 'stretched' tyres. Check out this thread on Pepipoo - to be fair probably falsely accused given his minimal stretch.

Plate is just a fine. Plead ignorance as long as I can get away with it. The stretch is fairly minimal (within manufacturers recommend limits) but wider tires are coming for a "square" sidewall (need the grip)
