Drowningfool, Or should I use your other ID? Give it a rest please, If you have some agenda use your more known account to air it. The team are aware of both IDs and would prefer you to stick to one.

That isn't Ratch Dan. It's someone who has no reason to have two use IDs. We are working ot which name to ban at the moment.

Guys, I worked this out years ago. Get with it.

Edit: Drowningfool is an excellent addition to this place IMO.

IIRC Drowningfool was created when there was some bother with a bloke called Drowningman who had ripped off a foreign zoner?

What makes you think this bell-end is me? The girl has not charm, wit or any redeeming qualities - just the strong stench of bitch. Does every idiot who comes in here automatically get assigned the Ratch card? I was never personally abusive etc sort your live out and stop trying to fix everything.
Has andyboy been banned? I don't have any beef with andyboy these days either - nor even Simon13.

Drowningfool was the creation of a gifted chap ripping the loser drowningman who, in turn, was the fella that was a sandwich short of a picnic.

Apparently not, you'll just have to post pics of yours, sadly.
Sadly Mr Warburton I own neither so that can't actually happen.
It's interesting to see if a zoner owns a big car like that and an E30 - someone on here does a 997 GT3 and an Alpina E30.
Not sure what your deal is.

I weighed in one of these last year

Tbh I weighed in a 1972 350sel (I think it was sel maybe sl **** knows) a few years ago which I bought with the intention of doing something cool with. When I put my head through one of the holes in the bulkhead I decided not to bother.
as much as i like your estate, i couldnt get rid of the merc, i have nearly sold it a couple of times but couldnt do it each time. its hasd loads of work so no punching holes in the bulkhead. great got a 40 year old car

The old schoolers will remember Kelson and his B6S and his tidy gaff. He is perhaps got a few 'nice' cars up his sleeves. Sadly, he hasn't been seen on the forum for a couple of years.

M40? What M40?
The blue block is an M30... I think your eyes are making you see 4-pot wrongness even when there's 6 holes.

M30? Is that what the 'M' in Z3M stands for then!

Yep, i think that is the correct answer

It has been too long and I've got more shiny bits to put on/in it too.
Not sure where all these 'm' numbers came from, the engine in bits is an s50 b32 from the m coupe.
