Near where I live someone several streets away has a brand new 6 Series Convertible in white with 2 exhausts. Now I seen him drive a few times and been meaning to ask Barry and Pacer but my God when he drive it is FUCKING LOUD. Not just loud if u close your eyes and didn't know what car was coming you would swear is a Fetrari or Lambo. Also it crackles and pops in the air big time. If any of u havre ever heard F1 V10 NA racing car back in the day this is the closest thing I have heard to sound or mimic that (though not as loud as F1 car of course) but you will hear this 6 Series from 300m away before he gets to you and the pop in the air as he changes gear is the stuff dreams are made of.

If only I can find out what he has done maybe he has Evolve valvetronic type exhaust would live to get that done on my e30 would be spell binding!!!!

Gert, I am suprised you are not away on the BMWCC shindig, it sounds like your kind of gig AND it's in Wales ! :)

You should pop over, I am sure Pony would be happy to meet you and show you his scabby back end*




















*He hasn't had time to have his o/s/r arch repaired :)

Pete, when you've seen one scabby rear end, you've seen them all. Pony's won't be anything new or different other than the filler he's using to "pack" things out.

Ok I had my first sideways moment today in the rain. There was only a small kink in the road in Chiswick and I weren't even putting my foot down.
I have been taking it really easy round mini roundabouts so haven't had it sideways there.
Done a couple of light wheel spins in the wet from standing.
