Just looking though Pistonheads and noticed these and wondered why they dont fetch much ?

This looks ok once youre past the council wing mirrors and rear lights....

i just think that many people outside the bmw circle dont recognise the hartge name, coupled with the fact that they are older cars, they are just massivly underestimated......which is good for those in the know :wink:

First one is a very tatty shed.

Second one, no t&t.

Yes an M5 may only be a few quid more, but surely more to run?

What did these old boys chuck out in terms of power?
