A few minutes' drive from where I live lives a blue E36 M3, stickered-up, stripped-out and with a roll cage. Being an E36 fan (with a 15 year old 318iS which I've owned from new) I'm curious abut this impressive machine!

Anyone here?

Could be a BMW Car Club guy I know, has a few concours show cars too, including a stunning E36 M3 in Estoril.

This is an Estoril Blue one, albeit a track car. Looks very clean though it lives outside.

I would imagine Harvey Smith lives on a sprawling estate somewhere in the adjacent countryside. This is close to the centre of town.

Go knock on his door with your car parked nearby, i'll come and hold your hand if you like. wink
It's how we used to do things pre-mobile phone and internet, I remember answering the door to "That your car mate?"
"Yes"
"My mate's got one just like it, can I have a look?"
I still know him...

Ah, the good old days....
