That was the Holy Trinity. The bringing together of Man, Machine and the Isle of Man as God himself intended. Driving perfection. Three of the best at one point in time illustrating absolute nirvana. When I die, I hope heaven is an E30 M3 on the Isle of Man.

Easily the best driving I've seen in ages. Better than that guy drifting a truck around a circuit!!

Mine too. (So far. winkeye ) Mull neither. :-x

Afaik it's a 2.3 with 290 BHP/9K revs, driven by Patrick Snijers. He only did the Manx as part of his European Championship. He turned up, cleaned up and fcuked off never to return in an M3.
got the sister car (well 1 of about 20 lol ) BASTOS-MOTUL car (very similar livery) at work - GORGEOUS!
Iirc Marc Duez drove the other European Championship car, Bastos was Snijers sponsor? (Tobacco advertising ban on IOM even in 1988?)
I can find out specs tmrw if anyone is interested?
:cool:
videos!!!!!
How fit does this sound? <-- 8)
