paulo 68 Report post Posted October 21 E46 M3 on the bridge… OK, so not spotted in person, but was doing some google street view research for an upcoming trip to SF, and spotted this gem on it’s way onto the Golden Gate Bridge 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I bet it has a whole heap of Toyota Aqua's in orbit around it! 🤣 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Palazzo 479 Report post Posted October 22 I wonder if they smoke because everyone I see on the motorway is being driven by an ape thrashing the sh*t out of it, weaving in and out of traffic? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Twistee 461 Report post Posted November 6 BMTHUG's old e28 535i parked outside Waiuku College this morning. Sorry, no pic. Unmistakable with those rims and I'm fairly certain it still doesn't have the front bumper on. I regret not grabbing that when the previous owner put it up for a quick sale. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

balancerider 782 Report post Posted December 24 From the era when VW were briefly not sensible (the bork potential I’m sure is heroic). A car for @Kees maybe? same KW as a 335d but 750 NM of torque 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Olaf 3346 Report post Posted Friday at 03:59 AM (edited) how the hell did that escape dieselgate?! bloomin' barmy idea, imagine one of the Toerags that was produced with that power plant? it'd be a barrel of laughs - at least until some poor sod had to throw spanners at it. PS: I've a mate hanging on to his W8 Avant for grim death - loves the thing! I can understand it. Edited Friday at 04:10 AM by Olaf W8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulo 68 Report post Posted Friday at 05:22 AM ... there was also a V12 Tdi Toe-rag produced around that time - 1000Nm supposedly. I do recall one for sale in NZ a while back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
