Hi chick.

My name is Hayley and i'm another of the zoner 'Ladies'.

Welcome.

trust me your car can't be in any worse of a state as any of our e30's!

haven't got pics of the new touring yet

The concensus among woman i know is that my E30 is old, ugly and looks pikey...and i think its a good un, christ knows what they must make of a dog

The roll cage discussion was even better:
"So why are you putting that in then?"
"In case we have an accident and the car rolls"
"Are you going to have an accident?"
"I hope not, it's not part of the plan"
"So why do you need a roll cage then?"
Ad infinitum...

...ad nauseum as well by the sound of it ;)

Then she had this until it was replaced by an E36. She also loves my black 325i in the sig pic but i've stopped letting her drive it unacompanied since it was repainted!

Our baby is due in 10 weeks

Our plan is to follow the same course of action. Though she doesn't like e36's

So hopefully a touring is where it'll stop!!

Nath, she hated the touring but it was a 320i, "its to long!" were here words!

SAME BLOODY LENGTH AS A SALOON!

She loves the E36 and i guess it is a lot safer to transport a baby about in!

Good luck with your baby btw, its the best!

She loves tourings, has colours picked out and everything.

Can't wait for the infant to arrive!

My other half is a touring fan as well! She's been without one since a little incident at the end of last August, but I gave her a two door to fill in, while the replacement is being prepared.

Noo it was a SHE.......thats what made it worse for me!i was like "OOOOOOOOOOH MMMMMMMMMMYYYYY GOD"

But in all fairness she drove it very well!stilll wasnt impressed but well at least it came back in one piece, though i do belive a girl in an E30 is a pleasant sight!!

Had the same comments about the slush box as well Robbo, though she seems happy enough driving it...

Welcome by the way Tyra.

well shes a creature of habit, take somethng AWAY from the process of driving and she gets totally discombobulated.... took me a coupla days to not step on the imaginary clutch everytime i braked, and my mate took it for a spin a few months back and was doing just the same.... i asked the doris to move mine so her uncles car could get out, she spent 10 minutes fiddling and arsing about before coming back and telling me to do it myself.... where is the love i ask

and hi tyra, welcome to the zone, wish one of my posts would genrate this much response, actually i had one, several months ago that did, but it was about biscuits (and which one would win in a fight)...... it went far further then i ever expected with people taking pictures and inventing whole back stories.....
