             I can't wait to see Andys 'new' 733 , looking at them arches and sills i don't see it lasting for many laps at our e23 derby. That is 6 e23s lined up , 4 more and  the 'race' is on . E23s are the new mk11 granny ! .   We'll take lots of  'money shots' for you fiends !.

Profit is more reasonable than justice.

I've had more E23's than anyone else here! Eight in
total and I drove and used every one of them - into
the ground
Four were driven into the scrapyard by me when they
were finished, two were sold on and two were
destroyed in the 'Lock Stock' spin off TV Series 4-5
years ago. About £140'000 worth, dead.
When I had them, there were plenty about so I'm not
guilty!

HUMMM, Well I have just had 3 cars a mk4 escort e30 touring and me old e23, and its 2 years older than me  you must be well old andy

if he's spent a fortune in parts and repairs etc, why leave the need for a new exhaust as the last stumbling block to an Mot? And why sell it on without one? Something else wrong with it?

could be an innocent reason AG. could have replaced the car, and simply lost interest in it.

as you say, why not sort the exhuast and sell the car with a new MOT for £300 to 400 ish?

looks v.nice in the pics - you can't see them from work, hee hee

Hi all, been off camping in Wales, last in a tent around 30 years ago.

New E23 735 arrived safely tonight, put to bed and ready forgood check over tomorrow. Spookily the neighbour who has the 732 has taken a fancy to Wendy's 320, which would give him a silver E23 732 and a white E30 and me a silver E23 735 plus a white E28 528.

Think I've converted him to the world of BMW! I noticed Rob had a lot of stuff on ebay, I'm watching some of it while plotting how to get down to visit Philip and Mark.

Guess I'll be cleaning Metric wheels up in the hope of rehoming them if Mark still has the BBS's!

We're not kidding. We've got 6 lined up for a race at
Essex Arena in January - we need another 4 to make
it a 'one make' banger race. Our team is called 'The
Executives' and if we don't get another four E23's
(unlikely) we're going against 6 W123/126 Mercs.

Probably going to use a Ford V6 engine in the E23 -
it mounts right back out of harm's way - one good
punt and the distributor cap on an M30 will be
smashed. The 745i is the first one to be built
followed by Pete's 735i Executive. We've also got a
rough LHD carbed 730 and a very tidy B reg 728i
manual :-)

One 10 lap race and a destruction derby at the end,
last car that still moves wins! We're allowed to tie two
together for the final.
