He's being a bit sarcastic. They never made a 5 door M3, so guessing he saw a boggo SE spec E46 saloon with an M3 badge on the back.

Or its a cool conversion done to upset the masses.

Bit of a spotters fest today on the M27/M3. As well as the 430 & Quatraporte (which passed me northbound on the M3) there was a Diablo just in front of it, various Porsches, another Maserati southbound on the 3 this morning (a 3200GT with the boomerangs) & a gorgeous Turquoise 30s hot rod pick up going through Ferndown.

Delorean today near Southampton General at about 1900hrs.
Looked great.
Didn't get up to 88mph though!!!

I also saw a 430 spyder on the M27 yesterday morning, I was following it for a little while.

There is one about somewhere. I'm sure it was based in Southampton some years ago, but I may have made that bit up. IIRC, the owner had an M3 and a 3-series estate, the M3 got rear ended and written off, so he transplanted everything salvagable (including the engine) into the estate!

I am well aware of this.... A friend of mine purchased an E46 318i recently in blue with an M3 badge on the back. Which he has no intentions on removing, I believe it also has M3 replica alloys aswell!

That was me. Live in Portchester and work in Ringwood. On a sunny day I use my DB9...

Followed this gorgeous automobile this afternoon from Derby's Corner towards Poole town centre. It just wafted effortlessly along the road.

[VinceFox]

Very clean, well sat e36 coupe in dark blue on fleetsbridge flyover about 8:30am.

Is that a Chinese Eye Cloud III drophead? Off the scale cool.

Has anybody else seen the chopped mini around Poole? green with what looks like a 10" roof chop, boot chop, MX5 rear lights. It's tiny but looks like a right larf. I followed it into Chalwyn ind estate yesterday evening.

It was a Chinese Eye Cloud III drophead. In that colour it looked amazing. Top down in the sunshine would be so cool.
