    Parked at the BMW Nürburgring Test Centre. The white E36 is the first diesel car to win a major 24HR endurance race, a 1998 E36 320D with Hans Stuck at the wheel.

    I have to say, I'm not very fond of bmw's at all, as a matter of fact I'd nearly say I'll never own one, but that's the only one I'd gladly drive any day

    I agree with you TBH, but it just means I can take it off in an instant for shows, trackdays etc. so I'm willing to live with it.
