I had a '87 Volvo 480 as my first car.

I stripped it out to make it lighter and to prentend it was a rally car. Had stickers on and everything!

Didn't half handle well!

Had great weather here too by the seaside

 

I spose my best car ever owned was my 1978 Trans Am 5.7 with nitrous, extremely wide rear wheels, wheelie bar etc.....she was my drag car, Street and Super Street from 1982-9.  Occasionally used her for work too, which upset the fuzziewuzzies alot cos she had straight thru systems with double cherries on each side.

Apart from her, sadly I can't say the BMW has been a good car cos I have only driven her 5 times since collecting her in early April and now I got to sell her anyway

What Rain ?? been sunny all day over here, even took dog for walk @ 7am, sunny then

Getting back to thread, expanded slightly & was thinking what was the best car i owned, narrowed down to either : humber sceptre, Spitfire, 5ts or E30 320.

Just out of interest, Nigel, what breed of dog do you own?

 

Has to be pretty fit I guess...I used to own a GSD and 3 Rotties..lovely dogs they were too...

My young daughter read some bad language on here and asked me what it meant, I didnt expect it to be here, as we are a family club.

Although some will no doubt find our ramblings annoying, I think it shows us to be a friendly and approachable bunch, who like BMWs ( cars and motorcycles in general in my case), each other, and a laugh.

Yep, agree with all that.......

 

unsure what the moderators do on some sites !

Seems like you were all a bit Brams & list last night !

Believe me Nigel..it really does make a nice change to have a moderator who hasn't had their sense of fun transplanted..

 

There are far too many moderators on other sites who lost their sense of fun when they got made up to moderator status, you may not think you are anything special, but at least you can have a laugh...and that is pretty rare with moderators...
