Careful now! That's a double entendre :pac:
It only does it when I'm in the Bravo (factory Grundig has TA on) I tore out the original Pug radio and the Pioneer hasn't TA so I can keep listening to my radio in comfort
I still remember being freaked out and wondering was it a throwback to the British Secret Service and their monitoring abilities
Fecking thing followed me all the way home to Dundalk as well that evening!0 -
518d is on sale here now: http://www.carzone.ie/search/BMW/5-Series/518d-SE/36513807764885140/advert?channel=CARS
I had a search for 523, 525, 528, 535 or 550 models from 09 onwards, there isn't a single one for sale.

Ugh... Sickening. If no one buys them new now, what will be left for us in a few years :PCold enough this morning 0 degree at 5.30 am when I was leaving for cork this morning. 4 degrees in cork now. That's the coldest my temperature gauge has read due to it having a faulty one last winter. Had the snow flake on the dash flash between red and yellow and beeb the whole way up. Anyway safe trip anyone who's driving this morning.
Yeah it was 1 degree this morning according to the car, iced up and all. Well past the summer/fall now lads !0 -
Ha ha I was in bmw blackrock the other day for a new lock nut key, I had to sit down and have a "meeting" with a chap so they could assess my situation :rolleyes:
I just wanted them to try their lock nuts and find the correct one
Funniest thing was they were suprised by me driving the 530d? I thought blackrock would be full of far bigger bmw's?
Walking around the forecourt I realised wrong, 8 of 10 were 520d's.
As Cleveland says, someone needs to buy them for us 0 -
You're grand At "normal" speeds, it sits between 2.5 and 3.5k revs. At pred speeds/gears, it hit 5k
That was just a little 2 car overtake, come see me on a dry day and I'll take you out in the 159 and show you proper 'pred speeds':D
I thought I was quite restrained in your car, nice long spin though, thanks again!0 -

Spotted earlier that November is going to have record breaking snow.... yay?
In fairness, BMW Ireland doing a somewhat reasonable deal. Copied from FB:For every set of winter wheels & tyres purchased, each customer will receive a free half-day’s BMW Winter Driver Training. The training will take place at the Rally School Ireland, Co. Monaghan. This would normally cost €175 for a half-day’s training.
Please contact your local BMW dealer to avail of this promotion.
Valid until 31st March 2014. This applies to alloy wheels only (steel rims excluded).
And in other news, spotted this over in YLYL

How much are the wheels and tyres? (just curious they'd look funny on mine)
I've driven a tractor with 3 wheels before, because its an axle with no suspension, you can stick a wedge between the good side and the frame and the other side sticks up in the air. Alot easier than trying to take off a tractor wheel on the side of the road. Only works for the front unfortunately;)0 -
