You may have missed it...I would have done, except my partner loves the show so she watches it and I was around...

Anyway, a nice white 320 (I think) convertible was on the "Don't tell the bride" show on BBC3 last night (Tuesday) belonging to the best man...

Should be on iPlayer if you want to watch again..

Fell asleep on the sofa last night and woke up 'round 4:00pm with this on :D . Saw the E30 and briefly was fully awake. Dozed off again when the girls started talking 'bout their dream wedding.

Saw a lovely looking e30 cab in a French film I was watching the other night called Dinner de Cons (The idiots dinner). Think it had Alpina's on.

But was crashed :(

Is that where it rolls down the hill?

Sad little fact, the car didn't roll as far as expected so if you watch the video, they play the same scene from different angle to make it look like it rolled further

Way, way off topic but occasionally I drive past a local MOT garage where a guy/girl has a nice chromie. There aren't a lot used daily down here on yer high street so it's an experience for me!

Every time I see it I give a smile but also because his or her mates take the micky and decorate it with something. The other week it was christmas tree decs with 'I [heart] my E30' written in big red writing on the rear screen. Today it was a couple of party balloons and tire chalk saying 'Love BM'. I half expect them to stick it on 19's next time he's on his lunch break.

I'll get some photos up one day

Haha :D
