I’m really fancying one of these, 8 or 12, or an alpina B12 if I had the spare funds and could find one!

Finding an E38 B12 was a chore for me but I tracked a few down in the end before getting aone of the two lwb 5.7 with all the toys. There was a UK rhd B12 5.7 swb on the bay of dreams last week for c£24k.

30 photos and not a single decent one of the interior. Feels like they're hiding something

I did initially wonder if it was missing hard-shell red Recaros, but they do seem to be there

Alpine and not seen one in this colour before. I can’t stop looking at it. They are supposed to drive well.

A Mk2 Audi TT-RS.. I had a couple of Focus STs and sold a Mk2 Focus RS last year. My daily is a BMW E63 630 but I’m missing that 5 cylinder noise.. The wife has Mk2 TT & I quite like how they drive

Have you drove a Quattro mk2 TT? My friend was very disappointed when he drove a TTS after driving many fwd ones. Said it just felt heavy and dull whereas the fwd felt more agile and light on its feet, much preferred the fwd one.

Aye always had a soft spot for those , recently bought a GR Yaris feels v much the modern day reincarnation mechanically but still growing into the styling , I like understated though might be too understated

Not a car but a bike-a pre unit Triumph Thunderbird.
My father passed away last year and I sold his 1958 thunderbird to my brother in law-it was a lovely thing,very nice to potter around on,but I prefer the 1950-54 models for the looks. I can really see myself on one like this….

I still fancy an ISF but really don't fancy paying these prices for them given some of the adverts, It's quite obvious that some of the current owners aren't really up there with "how to maintain a car", Should have done it 3 years ago.

The Peugeot RCZ

Don't want the 1.6 because they are fragile and troublesome, specially in a 1.4 ton car when they were meant for the 1150kg 208 GTi

So that leaves the tested and trusted 2.0 HDi 163, but I live in the soon to be ULEZ Manchester, I know its commerical vechicles only, but only a matter of time before its private car/bikes as well.

I have always liked the look of the RCZ, didn’t know you could get a diesel though! Would have made a good daily if I’d known. How do they drive though any old pug gti dna? Are the running costs reasonable with being diesel? Off to trader I go!
