Thinking about it, neither have I.

Well I humble myself to the Pits and say yes it was the rear with mainly just a view of his helmet...a writing error and also correct myself by making the grammatical error in by saying "i had actually driven one".


I was merely demonstrating the fact that it is a sport that requires huge amounts of skill,precision and stamina. The 'boys' comment is pretty retorical as these days most drivers that enter F1 have come up from the ranks of karting etc with the added advantage of an earlier transition into motor racing hence their age!

Oh yeah I HAD a problem with 350bhp in the wet in mine...but with an e30 m3 and the power yours deliver I hardly think it warrants any worry or the need for driving aids. I'd be more terrified in a Ford Ka cos it's quicker.

You ask when do I sign for BAR? I don't but I heard they are looking for some e30 m3 owners as it's like for like and all that I'll put your names forward shall I ?


Don't start me....oh please do great banter

Now now ladies, handbags away or I'm getting a padlock out....

Which would be a shame as I've been enjoying watching the M3 kids waving their privates about.

I didn't know you two were that close. I think in this day and age it is comendable that you feel the need to show your feelings for each other on an open forum...... Well done lads Keep it up if you pardon the pun

LOL, go get him Wendy

Well it's been quiet in here so we thought we'd slag each other off...in true christmas spirit

I haven't got a KA, you gay git, the wife has a KIA if that beats the old E30 M3 as well (I'd imagine it does).

"Based on the 1986 E30 3-Series body, the first M3 was introduced with a 2.3 L S14 engine, derived from the M10 inline-4 block and the valve train and head architecture from BMWs M1 and later M6 inline-6 cylinder. One of the main reasons for production of the road car was to homologate the M3 for Group A Touring Car racing, as an answer to the "2.3-16V"-model of the Mercedes-Benz W201 which was introduced in 1983. A notable characteristic of the E30 M3 is its racing pedigree, campaigned by BMW as well as other racing teams including Prodrive and Schnitzer Motorsport."
