The E31 was less attractive than the Vauxhall Calibra. Never understood the love for that fat toad of a car.

Such an obvious one I should have said it in the first post. Best looking BMW ever.
How can you say that when the E31 exists? :? :? :?

Had to talk myself down from that one. E34 is my answer to the thread title.

Re: Planned obsolescence

It was 32DegC in Glasgow last week motherhubbards. A tale that will be told down through the generations :P I quite fancy a trip up in winter, some snow driving, though maybe a 4wd would be better suited :( In summer, maybe. In winter you should probably take one of these. http://www.oharacorp.co.j...

Re: Evija?

This is not a car that Lotus have designed to actually exist as a car for driving. It's a marketing tool to advertise to other car manufacturers that Lotus can do all sorts of whizzy stuff for your new electric car design.

Re: Monterey McLaren

I’d change the interior colour, but other than that - it’s absolutely perfect. Very much this. Although i would leave the interior as is and complain to every CG that "its not what I would have chosen" so they might not consider me the luckiest and biggest C in the world . 8-) When Boris ...

Re: The angle grinder strikes back!

A truly shocking incident but at least nobody I care about was harmed and at least Gavin appears to have learnt his lesson here. Although one can't help but wonder why somebody so named ever thought it wise to pick up an angle grinder in the first place?. Angle grinders are tools for the Daves and ...

Re: Apollo 11 at 50

I've been enthralled at the BBC world service podcast called "13 minutes to the moon". It's been an incredible insight into what it took. The final episode is just the recording of the radio during the decent. The previous episodes have taught you how to follow it all. The score is also by...

Re: For Sells - my Abarth 124 Spider #Bargain

I wonder what engine you can currently buy has the oldest roots? The current 1.4 in the Fiat family dates to the mid 80’s I think but that’s nothing when compared to the Bentley 6 3/4 which is from 1959! I'm willing to bet that only the displacement is the same as the 1959 engine. You’d lose that b...
