    But there are the x5 or x6 35d or now 40d engines with 4wd... or is that a stronger 4wd system to the car's x-drive??

    You probably won't have space for that drivetrain in a 3-series :)

    335i is what it sounds like. Nice machines.

    Thought the 335i had twin pipes, but only one on either side? Stupid question, only because ive never seen one, does the 335i come in 4door?

    I think that's what he meant (twin pipes but one on each side as opposed to twins R & L).....
    How have you never seen a 335i, they're not that rare...
    335i also comes in 4 door alright...

    Saw an english reg 3 series last night, twin pipes on both sides but at the edge as opposed to the m3 closer in the middle, anyone any ideas or just a random 3er with modded pipes?

    Id say that was a tuned or modded 3 maybe alpina.

    Woops, sorry, misread your post. Right you are, 335i has one pipe left and right. Not two.

    Could have been modded, or it could have been an alpina or something!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,480 ✭✭✭ofcork


    Could have been an alpina b3,the version of the 335.

    That roadster is 1 of 6 ever built and was the only RHD ever built, made for the Sultan of Brueni (who else :rolleyes:), who also had the only RHD CLK-GTR coupe built. They were sold a couple of years ago.
    The top seller of the night was a 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR Roadster, the only right-hand drive example built, for £616,000. An equally rare 2005 Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR Coupé achieved an impressive £522,500,

    More pics of the coupe here. Incidentally one of the pics names it as 13/25, there were actually 26 built, the first was kept by Mercedes.

    No pic as was driving, but spotted a DeLorean on the back of a car trailer last night, around 9.20pm. It was heading down the hill towards the Silversprings Hotel as we were travelling up. Couldn't tell you what was towing it, apart from it being a dark saloon. The DeLorean kinda took what attention I could spare :D

    You won't believe this but that same car with the DeLorean passed by my house this morning at about 8:50 :D

    A few from Ford Fair a while back. The white and blue MK1 is an Irish car with a 2ltr Zetec engine. I see it around Kilkenny quite a bit.

    Saw a cls63 amg today with a lorinser bodykit on it a 09 D reg in west cork,no photo as i was driving nice motor though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,728 ✭✭✭✭CianRyan


    We're definitely seeing the same pictures!
    There's been some nice Merc's but I really don't like the look of some of their preformance cars.
    Sticking an old E Klass front on a super car just does not appeal to me.

    I've voiced my opinions on German cars on here before, not interested for another 30 years! :P

    Each to their own i suppose but that was how the clk looked at that time and it transferred to the clk gtr.
