The Best ///M/Barge/General Rant/Look at this/O/T (Vol XVI)

[SpeckledJim]

Steady on, we could be talking up to 10 minutes here.

Tbh, it won't be that far from me at the office either.....

So, what do we think, am I bonkers?

I am getting a bit bored (as usual) of my car, so thinking of a radical change. Would it be the wrong one?

I'm thinking of changing my MR2 Roadster and changing for an F01 7-Series for a bit of comfort. I've never had a large car, and really quite fancy one.

Quite a change though... I've already put the MR2 up for sale, so will see if anyone comes knocking!

I went from a 3dr Sierra Cosworth to a S1 Elise to an XJR to a Clio 172.......etc etc

Nowt wrong with a bit of variation!

Phew! That's sort of what I'm thinking. I've defaulted to sports cars for ages, and never really branched out. I'm thinking a nice, big car would be quite different!

The coupe is a scratch that needs itching, always wanted one.

E30 M3 - 350Z - MK2 Golf Gti - Lexus LS400 - E36 M3
Big cruisers are a good diversion for a while.

Spotted outside my local garage



Obviously a recreation. But beautifully put together, fit and finish probably way better than an original.

That has to excellent value, surely?! That's a nice chunk of practical M3 for Clio money.

Massive amounts of want. Good spot, thanks for sharing

Saloon's are cooler though, as long as the spoiler is deleted.

Have to admit, I'm not entirely fussed about how it drives (as bad as that sounds; especially coming from the MR2). I'm looking for the ultimate barge experience, which I think the 7 would do a lot better than the 5... wouldn't it?

When I look at the 5, I just kind of start drifting back to the E60, which leads me to the M5...!

Olly, have a look at the garage find picture on here from "shagracer".

That should take your mind off of 3.2's

[L100NYY]

Blimey.

I know there's a few e21 fans on here, i've just found this thread, looks like it'll be a proper weapon.

I'd love an RS4 in Viper Green.

Drove to Evesham today to collect some alloy wheels, seems it's a haven for some nice metal.

Spotted two E39 M5s, one with a very vocal exhaust! Sounded glorious! Various Porsches and a Ferrari 360 CS!

Best spot of the day was this on the way up though.....
