neither of them, it was a black chariot, parked next to the purple E36 turd. had an extended bonnet in the centre :eek: nasty

oh, who was there selling the bodykits for the X5? they were something like £12k fitted 8O and when i looked, they had paint runs all over them! :P

oh, that black chiptune stickered X5 was pretty rapid considering how much it must weigh! :)
Did anyone see a time or get served by that?

That E36 is terrible, along with chrome arches,that type of loud body kit is one of the worst body decorations you can have.

After meeting Pacer Pete for the first thing, I can't imagine him saying anything nasty about that lovely M7!!! He strikes me as a being a bit too PC!! :wink:

christ!! i didnt see this.. oh the barry boys would love this @hit box.. just what is going through peoples heads when they decide to molest a car in this way?? Ooooooh it looks angry!!! the vents in the bonnet must feed the mawassive turbo and i quite believe it does indeed undress itself above 50mph... all of this effort and its still a 316 :rofl:

The second 7-series picture-the one with the Car Bra on, had a sound system, you could hear from about 5 miles away, hearing crap Euro House is awful at the best of times, but at ear piercing volume is even worse!

I have a picture of Brian Moooore, but I'm two minds wheter to post it, I mean it would give the mystique away, he does exist honest..

That escort looked violent as he ripped down the 1/4 mile. Massively impressive and the same colour as my first car, a Mk3 Escort. (well I am an essex lad)

I noticed you took the wrong turning and ended up in the queue for the strip, didnt hang about though, reversed out pronto! Where were you hiding anyway, with all the other 4 pot losers? :snigger:
I knew you would mention that Dan.
Watching you and Si over and over again from the henman hill. (Very impressed with your chrome wrongness).
How much fuel did you use on the day?.
Was sick of seeing that White E60 with Carbon bonnet.

Off to find a 316 moordoor for pod activity

How many AA men visited. I saw at least 4 vans.
Cheers Gaz, I was as impressed with the car as anyone 8)
Didnt do too bad on fuel, started off with a full tank and by the time I got home 200 miles later I would estimate there was another 50 left in there, on average I get approx 300 to a tank

Simota carbon filter thingy that Evolve sell and a scorpion half system as far as I am aware. Think it had more to do with the lack of mechanical sympathy the driver had :D

Sorry Ryan, Didn't want to race you in case my rust jumped lanes and infected your car.

No sadly they don't list such shabby snotty old turds. Apparently it's only a tenth slower than a 316..... But it is a derv so never mind.
