[Splondike]

Well the Zafira GSi has gone and been replaced by this

[Splondike]

Thanks lads, it seems a bit overly executive for me but hey, I will get used to it...

Dave, that piccy was taken by the dealer - I have not yet switched the fogs on ! Cheeky git !

[Davenotouring]

Rubbish Mark, you are quite the executive.

Chavvy dealer then!

Lets see some more pics! Have you picked it up already?

[oguz327]

Nice one Mark, that looks sweet

You still baby sitting the tech 1?

Yeah picked her up yesterday mate, seems to be fairly quick, but it is so undramatic ! It seems to be a nice tidy example by far the best I have looked at anyway.

Oz, I do not have the Tech1 as Mahmood is having the cab worked on so needed it back to get around in. Not sure what is happening on the babysitting front at the mo.

[essexboy]

Nice motor mate look forward to seeing it at aces

[d6dph]

Very nice Mark. Very upmarket.

[E30Mark]

I keep having these funny feelings towards the 5 series.... Yours does look nice! well done. Be interested to know what the economy is like.... God i must be getting old!

[Mahmood]

A proper car...looks a good un'

See you at Ace.

[billgatese30]

very nice amte, my dads old e39 was that colour, however it was onyl a lowly 525td SE touring, it was a touch "plebish" in comarison

they are still lovely cars all the same, they seem to handle they're weight very well indeed

my dads had the standard bumpers etc but had these wheels on and looked great



(i know the snow covers most of it but you get the idea)

[Splondike]

Cheers all,

I like those rims Chris like on your old man's but I am very happy with the sport ones, I will get some better pics up when it stops bloody raining...

Hopefully heading up to the Ace tomorrow.

[320Touring]

nice one mark! there is a lot to be said for pootling along in a big lumped exec chariot, watching the plebs go about their business in the rain

[Mahmood]

Mark: you bringing your fine new chariot to Ace? Hope so, I want to see it.

I want to buy either an E39 530/540 (not sure which variant Diesel, Sport, Touring) or an E46 330CI...We'll also talk E30s at Ace.
