    Sharp eyes you have ;)

    It is indeed a Tempra, 1.6 on lpg. Here since 1999. Used as a taxi and I learned to drive in it when I was 12. 196k miles, never failed to start, never a minutes bother. They don't make them like they used to :cool:

    It's been off the road since 2005. It's sitting there this past 2 years, was in the garden before that. Needs a lot of tlc at this stage but we'll get round to it :)

    Here it is in better days :D

    There's no problem getting a V8 in the E34.

    The 540i E34 Sport 6-speed where an epic car. I'd love one at some point. Has to be a Touring though.

    In the meanwhile, I'll just settle for the other 2 V8's here.

    Nice Tempra I seen an SW model near Beaumont hosp recently always parked up in someones driveway..

    I still get flashbacks to the Gardai righting off a Tempra chasing a joyriider in Darndale one day early 90s Id say..30yrds from me..IIRC the Gardai tried unsuccessfully to fit between 2 heavy fat concrete bollards which the joyriders had slipped through in a narrower car:(....ended up with bits of Tempra all over the road:o

    No, what I mean is that both the Subaru and Toyota are turbos. That's what Cian meant when he said twin turbo ;)

    Jesus, that looks like a lovely example. Packing a real punch too with iirc 70 hp. I had another 5 myself, only t'was a diesel van.




    I cried for about a week after I sold it.

    It was my granny's car. It sat in her driveway for a year after she had to stop driving due to her eyesight. She gave it to me and I resprayed the black plastic parts, got a new front bumper, sprayed it, second hand mirrors, sprayed them, new tyres, new windscreen, full interior valet, did a full decontamination and enhancement on the paint, full service including gearbox oil, NCT'd it and sold it for a healthy profit :)

    When it left our house in 2010, it had 19,000 miles on it :eek:

    I loved it though, super little car to drive and went like an absolute rocket! Sadly, the current owner (friend of mine) hasn't looked after it at all and it's in a state again. I'm sorry I sold it at all, let alone to someone who wasn't going to look after it.

    I think I have better pictures at home, I'll upload them later on if I remember!
