    cheers mate, had to take it easy, had a garda "escort" the whole way up :)

    not the easiest to make out but they are the car you see overtaking the vehicle holding us up :)

    Nice motor there :)

    Unrelated - how are you exporting your video footage off the roadhawk and on to a portable media (i.e .mp4, .avi etc)

    Spotted my first car which I sold 2 years ago. :(
    Wish I still had it, the performance was too good for a 1.3.
    That bumper really made me cringe.

    Oh wow definitely the nicest 5 series out of the whole lot! The newer ones just seem to get more boring and boring...

    Would you consider a short-shift M gear knob? I can actually see the buttons which are in the centre console now :D

    Has to be my favourite modern BMW. Your looks really well but the front lights could do with a bit of 4000 wet paper and elbow grease, followed by a polish to bring them back to a clear condition.

    I am 17. That was bought as a project car with intentions of putting on the road when I'm 17 but the circumstances and lack of funds at the time forced me to sell it.

    Thanks, the cream interior can be a pain, but when kept clean, its nice. Also I think the paint is keeping well considering it hasn't been detailed and is 6 years old (even if I do say so myself !!)

    WHO would buy that model CHARADE as their project car. Unless the project involved a tin of petrol and some matches

    I wonder is there many unmolested examples left? Even the diesel ones were great for cheap as chips motoring.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,822 ✭✭✭✭EPM


    Nice. I know a guy that put the 3 cylinder diesel in a GTi shell...mind boggling. Think it was sold for scrap in the end:(
