BMW e28 528 manual - the exact car I was taken to school in for a year, and made me interested in cars! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1986-BMW-528-I-SE-5-spee...



The advert for that 5 series states:

"All the vehicles Bright work is to considered as outstanding – without a blemish in sight. The bodywork again is to be considered as outstanding with no visible signs of corrosion or accident damage"

But the first picture shows that the front bumper has blatantly been pushed back in a light frontal accident and the black panels that fit between the front fog lights and the number plate are missing.

Frankly, the seller is being a bit economical with the truth about the condition of this car!

Oh dear
How can you not like that! - It's totally Chav-tastic!

BMW will see this 6 series and will kick themselves when they see how truly great and classy the 6 series could have been instead of the cheap dogs dinner that they came up with! silly
A standard car would be nice. Those lights and those wheels?? Sorry they tell me all I need to know, I wouldn't even pause to browse the ad...

"Registered as a 628i with a 635CSi engine..."

I would not even consider it.

Perhaps the best Audi ever made - 73k miles, and only £650! I was taken to school in an early one of these and still remember the clunk of the door. http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C494117

Love it. There was a kid at school we used to call "Datsun Cherry" cos he kept going on about his dad's new one. smile

My kind of thread!

Already own 2 'retro' cars an '86.5 928 S2 and '90 E30 Touring with a 3.5 lump and a few other upgrades, just need to find a retro barge to replace my recently sold S430 and my life is complete biggrin Some of the E28s look tempting.


O/T - Oa PM received and will send one out tomorrow.

Great smile

Just keep posting the retro cars so we can have a look.

A neighbour had one of these when I was young. Completely wrong of course, but what a practical body shape for a small car, and it's £700 and has done 88k miles: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/vw-polo-mk2-breadvan-VER...

I don't think we need to mess around with any of the other stuff. I present 5300 cc's of V12 goodness.

So, within three pages this has just become a duplicate of the existing £1-5K barge thread. Does it, in fact, have a point?

I don't know how to link, but it's on Autotrader at the moment. I would love this having had two of the 4.2 series 3's.

Love that! I also remember being in one as a kid and the feeling of solidity was amazing, although we had either a Datsun Sunny or Matra Rancho at the time so not really a fair fight. Such a bargain price too.
