That poor 635!

I have no trouble with a modified 635, but dropped on its chassis beams with clown-camber and stretched rubber on two sizes to wide rims... yuck
Not this bks again.

It's on air, raised up when it moves. BMW rear suspension induces camber when lowered so it'll be much less when it goes up to driving height.
So, why not fit proper suspension and not park it on the floor so it looks broken?
Maybe because he did what he wanted to with his own car?

That Jag... It's almost a lovely machine but the wheels and the nasty grey lcd display in the instrument binnacle are.. well, nasty!

Doesnt look decently modified to me! Awful wheels with awful suspension.

Didnt even comment on the ride, it looks absolute crap to begin with, even if its on air.

I dont get the point behind making a car looks as low as possible purely when parked..

I'm no fan of air either but suspension and wheels are easily changed back to standard. I'm just glad that there's one more car that wont rot away unloved and be gone forever. Whatever your opinion, these guys look after their cars and are as much as an enthusiast as the owner of a concourse car!

..oh, and I really quite like the wheels. Splits made from old wheels are pretty cool IMO

If that's still on the Navara chassis/axles, then i give it about a week till it's upsidedown in a ditch/hedge/crash barrier...... ;-)

They didn't actually build that Navara, they photoshopped the engine in there to show what they could do....

Im sure PH did a news report on it at the time.

Judging by the down-curve on the side bodywork it isnt too low, someone just through it'd be a good idea to put some extra panels on it sitting 5 mm off the deck...

Still, im very curious as to what there is under the bonnet, the tires sure talk the talk, wonder if it can walk the walk

That's awful, looks a reasonable Capri body as well. Shame
