Be quick and grab this stunner for a bargain price. Sadly I have no use for a saloon.

The best car I ever owned was an old 12v 525i, if this higher power one has the same steering and suspension setup (and a refresh sometime in the last decade) I think it'll be a good motor for somebody.

Crikey that's impressive work. Can't be many nice E34s like that left though.

Lovely, but would be so much nicer with chrome bumpers IMO.

Back doesn't quite gel but other angles - wibble.
I am afraid that for me this epitomises the inadequacy of modern car design. In a sentence: not only is it backward-looking, but it is worse than the original to which it looks back. Whereas the original has the qualities of elegance, subtlety and femininity in its aesthetic, this has the very opposite. It is unsophisticated, blunt, aggressive, obvious and ham-fistedly heavy. Why the naked aggression? the automotive equivalent of a spider's web tattooed on the forehead? It's all jutting chin and flexing biceps. What sort of inadequate wishes to drive a vehicle like this? The over-detailed, over-sized wheels; the cartoon-clunky re-rendering into origami hardness of sensuous and soft curves; the raised fist to the original's raised eyebrow. It is cursed by the immoderation, unsophistication, desperation of our times. What a pile of st.

The colours are nice.

The 508 looks sort of OK



I occasionally drive a 308 and it's grim to drive - every last essence of driving pleasure engineered out of it, terrible ergonomics, a really poor gearchange
I think that's an absolutely stunning car. Genuinely one of the best-styled cars on sale.

If only it was XE-shaped or Giulia-shaped underneath then I'd really be a-hankering.
Having had a quick drive of a friend's 308 GTI the other day, I know PSA can still make a great car... You've just got to hope the good ones were let loose on that.

On the subject of interesting Peugeots, I've always been rather intrigued by the rcz. Never been in one but the fancy humped glass roof is pretty cool. The faint touch of SC430 about it may account for its appeal(!) but it's an interesting-looking thing.

True, but this is a late model :82', I think?
And chrome bumpered ones aren't anywhere near thread budget. frowncry

Until your 3 year old sees one and screams:

"Bum roof. Bum roof! That car's got a BUM ROOF! Buuuuuum roooooof!"

Unless of course, that sort of thing appeals...

It does, to be honest. I'm the sort of chap that still finds farts funny, so a bum roof is right up my alley, as it were.

Your recent holidays have done you good old boy, and your inner-Gok-Wan is unleashed in true stylish fidelity. This post brought a tear to my eye, along with a mildly-upturned lip and small nod in under-stated appreciation.

I nearly bought a manual M50 engined e34 before the Jag. I still fancy a manual at some point, plus the engine on them is just sublime. Zero inertia, and a beautiful induction noise.cloud9

Finding a rust free one now is proving tricky

I know that bitcoin isn't making scumbags money any more, but the move to marketing "any old crap" for mega money is absurd. Here we have 2 E39's:

Year 2000 528i. £1250.

Here we have a 2000 528i. £24,000
