Jacko 2156 Report post Posted July 22, 2020 E90, complete with M stripes, nurburgring stickers, and quad remus exhaust tips... RH side ones didnt go anywhere and appeared to be glued on, but I appreciate the effort in keeping that much thrust balanced. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LOL I saw this one too a while back, the two exhaust tips on the right where literally just stuck on to the bumper. Couldn't believe what I was seeing ? Don't recall the stickers, must have been added on since. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacko 2156 Report post Posted July 24, 2020 Saw one of these on the motorway yesterday - https://www.bmw.co.nz/en/all-models/x-series/x7/2018/bmw-x7-inspire.html I had to take a second look, thought it was one of those offbrand chinese copy things of other prestige cars.. but it was a real BMW... BMW have seriously lost their way, what a monstrosity. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BMW have seriously lost their way, what a monstrosity. "A statement of the luxury class: the new BMW X7 is the elegant fusion of presence and personality. Despite its majestic appearance, it gives an impression of lightness and agility thanks to the puristic design and athletic styling. At the same time, the considerable spaciousness of the interior offers a pioneering interplay of exclusivity, functionality and freedom – incomparable comfort all the way to the third row of seats." ??? And they use the words "charm" and "elegance" to describe it. ?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacko 2156 Report post Posted July 24, 2020 I bet the marketing guy who wrote that waffle was crying all over his keyboard whilst typing, wondering where he went wrong in his career path. Its the polar opposite of all those things, its about as charming and elegant as Trump wearing crocs and a mankini. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BMW have seriously lost their way, what a monstrosity. It was designed for the Chinese market wasn't it? Would explain why it looks like a terrible offbrand Chinese copy. Kind of like the new 4 series. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Olaf 3317 Report post Posted August 7, 2020 Sorry, no pics... sweet e30 FL coupe Jville BP last night Gletscherblau Metallic, with plate 'ANALOG'. Turns out it's a sister vehicle to mine - 316i 1990. Anyone on here? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slideways 47 Report post Posted August 7, 2020 If its the one I'm thinking of, I know of the guy and pretty sure he works for a mate of mine. He should still have a Tech2 kitted 318i coupe that had a M20b25 in it as well. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
