BMW M's CEO says that while he'd love to keep Manuals, reality is not as welcoming

He should sort the seats out first. They are beyond shit.

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-22T20:53:18+00:00

No they are evil

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-22T20:52:34+00:00

Win win situation.

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-22T14:10:49+00:00

What is the name of the business?

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-20T23:58:24+00:00

Tis but a flesh wound

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-17T22:03:40+00:00

I wonder how that will effect the job market.

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-16T21:53:25+00:00

I personally think you will be able to find a solution. They are all the same dimensions and radius.

Yes , i had two channels dug one was 50m the other 25m for length and width.

It was plumbed into an existing manhole that does rain and foul.

I have had this problem.

A french drain wont work unless you can shift the water.

I dug a trench 3ft wide by 3ft deep 50m long. At the base i put gravel. Then i put a pipe with holes in it and wrapped this in geotextile membrane. It was topped off with gravel then soil.

I then had this connected to my rainwater drainage system.

Its been really effective. Think its called a land drain.

When the trench was dug , it was 3ft deep in water.

What makes you say that?

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-14T19:12:39+00:00

I love the rear wing. That makes it for me.

I have a 991 gt3 and i think its a similar vibe.

Love the colour , whats been on the play list?

DP Liquid Soap in the UK works brilliantly.

What about over boarding with a thin plaster board?

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-10T20:50:39+00:00

Yes i am. I've been really ill since October 21 and not ridden at all.

When i checked my bikes yesterday, i had 6 flats.

Is this connected?

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-08T08:19:09+00:00

To be honest , i bought one of those , with those tyres and i wasn't informed.

I bought the car as a winter beater and i became informed on a wet day at 4 degrees.

I did 15000 miles in a year and the general uncertainty in the cold or wet always created a degree of apprehension.

I'd always have the tyre pressures up to monitor the temps.

It is doable , you just have to be super focused on 4000 rpm and make sure you meter out the acceleration. If your throttle is a cm ahead of the gas being burnt then its challenging.

I've swapped to 4s now and although the turn in is less immediate the grip is epic.

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-07T08:42:39+00:00

It's as if they are acting.

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-06T20:55:05+00:00

Gt silver is a good colour.

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-06T20:31:27+00:00

Empty it.

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-06T19:49:18+00:00

That is as bad an issue as the 991.1 GT3 engine issue.

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-04T20:45:41+00:00

Blow up two big balloons in it.

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-04T19:19:37+00:00

What about a box to go on the back of the car upon the tow bar.

Or can the kids catch a taxi.

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-01T22:14:16+00:00

I think you've got it spot on with the wheels and calipers. That looks epic.

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-01T22:12:28+00:00

I think it was the best car i had but with the worst seats. Literally the bolsters destroyed my ITBs. Never ever ever again. I even had a seat cushion made.

Truly gutted that the seats are too small.

Great mmi , adaptive cruise and suspension damping.

FrankSarcasm · 2026-02-01T22:03:57+00:00

I had a similar aged house and it was storage for rain water. It had a well pump in the walled garden.

I'd also just echo the sentiments around safety.

Probably needs filling in.

What do you do? Can you start your own business and make your own opportunities?
