SPOTTED! The official thread

Recommended Posts

I am fairly sure those clear lights were a "factory option" - it was during a period when clear tail lights were all the rage and BMW brought them out as an optional pacakge (wife was working there at the time and I remember seeing that car being sold new with those lights).

Correct - these were an option on E60 BMW's although I think they only became an option from LCI (I could be wrong there).

Wave... I won't think you're weird! Are you another local? I see Milan (BEEMN) a fair bit locally too in his rather tasty motorsport E61.

Watch out for those locals!

Yeah local, Herne Bay area. So always around, very rarely driving though. But I'll be the sweaty guy waving and wearing neon trainers haha

As long as you're not wearing Lulu Lemon like all the 'real housewives of Herne Bay', then I can forgive the sweat and the neon kicks.

Spotted a couple of good looking E39s today. The anthracite grey 530i looked especially good, though the M5 looked very good (not sure if it's the same one that was for sale recently... If it is, the new owner has definitely spruced it up a bit!).

1990 320i Coupe in Northcote missing it's front bumper. Doesn't look like it's moved in the last week or so. Sitting bloody nicely on Style 5 type wheels.

And a criminally stunning 'vert. Anyone know it's suspension specs? It has Bilstein in the rear.

Seen a M5 E39 last weekend. Wuz parked up, looking nicely seductive as they do, much like Darren's one. Even made me cross the road for a better loooooksee. Was sweet looking. Ticking boxes everywhere, cos some people like them ae. Quite a bit. Mmmmm, oh baby - was great looking car............

Until I read the bloody rego label - 530...................into a M5 replica!!!! Like, YTF would ya do that...............???? :rolleyes::huh::(

EDit. And yes, it had ALL the 'correct' (Incorrect really.......) external trim & badging on it, right down to the M5 badge on the back of the girl........was gutted at finding out it was a wannabe...........

Blue, I went to a corporate event hosted by a guy with an M5 wagon, I thought "cool car", then thought it didn't look quite right. 525i. Did spot a mint condition Lada Niva, probably rarer than an M5 wagon.

That may be the one my cousin sold - Same colour anyway. His one was owned by an old lady from new, until she died and left it to her mechanic, who sold it to my cousin. I offered to buy it... but he got a much better offer... plus I'm still married :lol:

A 500 is totally on my car bucket list!

Took the dog for a walk in Western Park and walked back along Ponsonby Road at about 7.30pm. Spotted an alarming number of bootcut jeans, especially near the Longroom. Fortunately I saw this at the end of my road... Obviously belongs to James Bond 'cos it's got what appear to be ski racks on in summer.
