I suppose when you can't afford to run one then the next thing to do is obvioulsy marvel and take mick out of others motors, dreaming that maybe, just maybe you could have one to keep, but only if petrol was well under £1.00 per litre. 8), but not to worry Pete, we won't mock you on the 7series register, you're more than welcome to check out all the brilliant 'turds'.

It all depends on whether or not the tourer is presentable.
Either way It'll give Pete something to rip the pi55 out off.

If we were then I don't undertsand why Andy and Pete are being so shy. Reminds me of Schoold days when the bullies used to annoy litlle kids because they didn't have what they did. I didn't get bullied then and i'm not going to start now.

Andy, Pete and Dan made their opinions very clear, I didn't mind that as it is their opinion but since they hate what we have done, they should at least show us what they have that is better. So far all i've seen is a 7 series that Pete said he bought for £500.00 but couldn't afford to keep as otherwise it would bite him on the behind and Dan has shown us 'his peice of 'shite'' which I do agree it is.

What are they worried about? Do they think i'll retaliate in the same way they put their comments on about our car? Surely their not scared of a few typed words. After all, it's all banter/sarcasm etc.

Me and Andy have just picked up this bueaty from Westbury car auctions, for those unfamilier with this exotic location, it is a mongloids idea of heaven.

We are hoping to display it at 'POD' and wondered if we needed any v12 badges and M tech stickers to be considered for the show and shine?

V12 badges are so yesterday Jon. Gold plated V16 badges are where it's at.

I've been to Matalan for the sleeveless Engerlaand! shirts, and Council Car Numbers have furnished us with PAZ34389624568 for just £49 plus DOT fee. Mate, the serfs are going to part like the Red Sea around the Estate when this monster wafts by to the sound of 9 cylinders and the blinking of warning lights. There will be much doffing of caps at the Pod.

Prestigious. :D

It sure is mate, the only problem is that you need your own oil field but it's definately got the right equipment to leave the 'estate' and still remain safe. Very nice.

This reminds me of a single tailpiped E36 I saw parked outside a pub on the edges of a local council estate last week, it had the regular ebay M3 badge on one side of the bootlid, and a chrome 'V6' badge on the other side, it also had some self adhesive reflectors stuck on the lower corners of the bumpers and just under each tail lamp, the kind you usually see stuck to rocks that sad b**tads place around the entrance to their drives to stop normal folk passing each other when driving along the narrow road that their 'above average' gaff is sited along.
I assume this is the reason the reflectors are on the car, to give resemblance to these types of 'above average' gaff

What a beast, I love the park bench on the back, added bonus I suppose is you can use it for extra seats when taking the family out, now only if there was an Alpina version.

Free bit of bling with the exhausts too.

As to the extra badges and stickers, surely they would only add extra unnecessary weight and slow this thing down, however each to thier own.

Private plates - it's something you do right or not at all. Three letters and one number, only way to go.

I didn't call it a beast for nothing, seriously. However i'd rather have the E39 M5. Maybe even the 530d with a full M5 kit including the mirrors and the exhaust, just to keep the guys on here talking :D .

So where I want wrong is that I fitted Genuine 20" Alpina's and an Alpina Replica front Lip to a 735 sport and that is 'Council' and 'Turd' but a chuffin park bench on the back of an M5 is the thing to do. Seriously? 8O
