10 owners? Must be something (or a lot of things) that no one wanted.

It's a 20 year old High end luxury car that can now trade hands for the square root of fuck all, they tend to go through owners a tad quickly!poolnoodle wrote:10 owners? Must be something (or a lot of things) that no one wanted.
I utterly love the idea of these - a proper man sized wafty luxo barge with 4 extra than necessary pistons for the same sort of money that wouldn't buy you a 10 year old hatch - A black on black e32 with chip, straight thrrough exhaust and some dishy wheels is ranked rather highly on the to own list, and after experiencing first hand the horror of doing the spark plugs on that engine (Albeit it in a RR Seraph
), that's saying something!As for the Autobox haters, it depends entirely on the car! Some cars definitely should not ever have had an automatic option (anything with an engine smaller than 3000cc and weights less than 1500KG springs to mind), while some cars (like a 7 series Bimmer!) suite them down to a Tee.
