Your estate looks exactly like where my last house was, blatantly the exact same houses. I bet the layouts are even the same. Thank you! That car is a tremendous bit of kit. And yes, probably churned out many of these houses/estates around the country. Not complaining though, it’s perfect for our needs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chiquita Fanjita 1,782 Posted May 2, 2020 @Howitzer looks fantastic! The G30 is a great looking car. I had to wash mine last week too. Like yourself it was the first time in years I’ve hand washed my car. Used to quite enjoy spending hours washing and polishing, but was surprised how quick the novelty wore off this time And yes, it’s another BMW 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can see an RWG BMW colour scheme theme developing even down to the calipers! Same. The novelty wore off much more quickly than it used to.... And my mood was not helped by the gargantuan pigeon that shat on it not ten minutes after I’d hung up my chamois Prick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grey ones go faster My last F11 5 Series was grey too. It took a few days before mine was shat on, but the rain soon washed it off. Although it did bead nice in the rain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Better get busy! It's TRUE. All BMW's look the same to me. It looks like an X5. And it probably is, just different tinwork. And I am NOT auto-racist. I'm auto realist. Considering what I do for a living, there's a reason why the two car companies I would NEVER buy a vehicle from are GM and BMW. 53 minutes ago, Chiquita Fanjita said: I hope it’s a BMW you got I hope it is too.

He's close enough I can get some work out of it Although I am partial to BMW's and have owned a few in the past, mostly without problems, I went a different way - it will be a surprise for Junior when I post pics bc I'm sure he has plenty of horror stories for me And no, it's not GM - I didn't even know they still made cars.

FunnyStarSystem 7,538 Posted May 3, 2020 What is that @Junior88? I don't think they sell those down here. Is that a Versa? I just looked and they don't even sell a hatch Versa here anymore! Why don't we get hatches anymore?!? Who are these dumbass Americans buying compact sedans? It makes no sense at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It makes no sense at all. 2018 Versa hatchback, and you're right. You get the Versa sedan and after this year, no more of those either. That pic on my truck was the day I got it. It'll be two years old on the 17th, and I still only have 9000kms on it 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BackInHisBox 249 Posted May 3, 2020 (edited) I work for Honda and their cars are reliable so I’m pleased. Rather go back to Lexus though, my favorite cars bar none! I’m even more picky with my cars than I am my watches. If I buy I only buy Toyota or Honda products. Nothing else is as reliable so nothing else is worth my money. However lately I’ve been leasin and loving that, so I think my next will be a Range Rover or Jaguar. We’ll see. Edited May 3, 2020 by BeyondTheBox 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nissan, Toyota and Honda. Nissan won because even though they aren't quite as reliable as Honda or Toyota, I got more bang for the buck. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BackInHisBox 249 Posted May 3, 2020 Our owner raced Indy for Honda so he’s got tons of cool Honda and Acura vehicles around. I’ll try to get one of his ‘91 and 2020 NSX at some point. Both red and gorgeous! I prefer the 91 for sure! Here you’ll see one of his retired Indy Acura, some super rare 60s yellow couple that only 281 were made, and a tiny little Jap spec model I’ve never heard of or seen before, about the side of Bigfoots roller skate. He’s also got a few S2ks, one sooped up with super charger, exhaust and loads of other goodies, putting out about 450bhp. I’ve never been a fan of the cars myself, at all, but I know they have a cult following. The other two are a his and hers bone stock with less than 1k miles on them for he and his wife. My favorites of his though are his two 60s sunbeams. Tiger I think. One bone stock and all original the other, of course, sooped up and insanely loud and fast! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GulfGT40 3,162 Posted May 16, 2020 We run on a conditional licensing system that allows rally/ competition cars to be driven on public roads too, from and between stages. With the season cancelled and alot of cars suffering from lack of use the club has negotiated that we be allowed to do 50km a week if the odometer is photographed, dated and logbooked. So whats more sacrilegious than driving a 10,000rpm screamer on the streets? Wearing something classy whilst you're doing it I can't wipe the smile from my face, lol 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
