Does anyone own C605 TLC? (white 350i) I have stumbled across some photos I took in 1985 (I was a 14 year old car nut who wanted to be a car photographer) anyway, I have 2 photos I took of this car that would have been taken when it must have been almost new (around 1985) Happy to scan them. I was very pleased to see its still on the road and taxed till Aug 11 (DVLA website). Not David Bailey quality as they are action shots, car is on the M3 being pursued by an Aston Martin. I remember thinking WOW!!!

regards
Karl

Pics as promised... first time ive uploaded pics on here so bare with me..

I took these in 1985 off a bridge on the M3, I was practicing with my camera, the Wedge in the pic must have been almost new and was being chased by an Ason Martin V8 Vantage, both were really giving it some beans!! as a 14 year old lad I was well chuffed!! According to the DVLA website the car is still alive and taxed until August 2011.

Yes the M3 is a bit different now, I took loads of pics that day and there was hardly any cars about, I remember pacing up my camera kit and then spotted something red hooning down the fast lane, I managed to get my kit together and snap it, and it was a Ferrari Testarossa, they had only just come out (1985) so I was thrilled.

I just wanted to add that as a 14 year old kid I didnt spend all my time hanging around on Bridges taking pictures of cars!nerd I was also into football/girls/knight rider & A-Team/streethawk and I could pull a wicked wheelie on my Raliegh Burner!! wink
cool

Sounds pretty normal for a 14 year old boy..My youth was a little more mis-spent than that..Ziga
