Is the goldiness not just the light?

It's the Cloud—Cloudbreak?—that does it for me.

This might cheer up a certain recent thread vendor - 745i on LPG for £1,800.

"Mustard and claret"? More like rhubarb and custard.

It can be done with impeccable style, not like that, but like this:

What I'd do to own that. Lovely.

You'd be a braver man than I, gunga din...

The N62 is bad enough without the added pipework!

If I said I’m tempted by a cheap CL500 with the aim of fitting a set of yellowspeed coil overs for (potentially increasing the chances of) trouble free smoking, what would thread opinion be?

As long as it doesn't get too low (and the wheels go back to silver) I'd be a big fan of such an idea.

They're such a handsome car, and as yet have mostly survived the image disasters generally befallen by middle-aged German cars.

Sorry in advance for a total thread derail....but so many of you guys were incredibly kind in the past and wondered if any of you would be willing to help me out again!

I have decided it's time to do another event for charity! I'm raising money for the Wessex Neurological Centre in Southampton who literally saved my life. Just over 3 years ago I raised money for Brain Tumour Support, who are a wonderful, wonderful group of people, but this time around I would like to direct my efforts to the unit who houses the members of staff who saved my life, and continue to look after me.

I know Christmas is coming up soon, but PLEASE, any donation, no matter how big or small all makes a huge difference! The details of the challenge I'm going to do are outlined in the link above. Please like/share/donate! Thank you all for ANY possible donations, but also thank you for the immense support in the past!

PS - yes.....an Everesting. I must be bonkers!

Link to my old thread here

https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&... which starts getting "interesting" from October/November 2014 for those who aren't familiar with my history.

Anyway....as you were bowtie

Any other options apart from Paypal Ross? I refuse to give them my details.

As someone who wasn’t a thread contributor at the time, but was lurking in the background, it was heartening to see the positive responses of members here, so I’ve no issue in supporting you doing a good thing.

Send me a PM & I’ll bung you an envelope back maybe?

I have PayPal Prinny and am happy to take all threadist contributions and pass them to Ross.

This post is in no way related to my internet browsing habits this afternoon (V12 barges).

Yes. I could never resolve the C-pillar shape but my view is changing. I think they will age very well.

I must admit I haven't checked, didn't realise paypal was the only option frown Not sure how to get around that. I'll contact Go Fund Me and see what they say. Although If you want, it'd probably be easier to do a direct bank transfer to me, and then I make a donation in your name? If that's OK, send me a PM and we can go from there. Really appreciate it!!!

edit - take a look here mate

https://support.gofundme.com/hc/en-gb/articles/360...

Under the "checkout with paypal" button, there's a list of credit/debit card buttons, click on one of those and go from there. But again, if you'd rather not do it that way then PM me and we can sort something out biggrin

PS - a big thank you to someone who's donated from here already. You know who you are and it's much appreciated!

No wonder you're driving a Corolla with that bike! I will make a donation, I like riding my bike, but Everesting seems bloody grim. Good luck!
