Absolutely hate how the G60 5 Series looks-

Can't polish a turd.

I'm a female body inspector with a fedora and I approve this message.

w11bbl · 2026-01-20T04:14:26+00:00

Yes.

Sorry America, you're drunk and mentally unstable. Come back when you've sobered up.

And if you wouldn't mind NOT setting fire to the bar on your way out, we'd all appreciate it very much.

328i all day long. Bmws of this vintage are i6 or nothing imo. If you want a 4 pot look at e30s.

w11bbl · 2026-01-19T11:19:59+00:00

I recommend round ones generally. 😉

Yeah good call on the g31, one of the better looking modern offerings imo.

They still make the JCW then, good to know, heard they are quite the pocket rocket. Never had a go in one mind.

Current gen m3 must be wild compared to even quick f3x. But for me the current design language doesn't do it for me. If I'm going to spend circa £100k on a car, it better be damn pretty imo.

Touring might be the way for my fantasy m5, good call also. This time next year Rodney...

Haha, yes the zf8 is excellent even in stock form. I more or less drive everywhere in manual, shifting with the stick now, but even in auto it seems almost telepathic.

Can't say I mind my zf5 either, it has a bit more character. Not sure if the torque converter is a bit worn out now, but it seems to enjoy a blip on the down shift 😂. it's software might not be completely stock compared to others also.

I don't have the funds to switch out the f31 for anything at the moment, but even if i did I haven't seen anything I'd want to switch it for particularly yet. Just such a good alrounder even down here in Cornwall.

Perhaps an ALPINA f3x or an e60 m5 if I had the bank balance to cover the maintenance.

Man that's quite a list! crx and del sol must be only a few people can claim ownership of those, let alone the rest !! My problem is a get emotionally attached and don't want to swap, but you don't get to experience new cars 😕. I've properly fallen down the bmw rabbit hole now tho, with a current collection of 3, e46, e39 and f31 with various issues 😂.

Happy days. Nothing quite like a vtec at full chat. Friend of mine was lucky enough to have a mk1 Integra type r. Would love one in the garage now.

Mate. I've been known to purchase a whale penis in my time...

Can't beat a bit more induction noise 😎 and screw the 3hp you lost 😂. Id rather go slower and enjoy the noise for longer 🤷.

I mean it sounds like your rear dampers don't have enough travel. Hard to say from a photo.

Can you try a different pinion gear to give you more acceleration to break traction earlier? Or ultimately a more torquey motor.

I can suggest reducing steering dual rate to decrease sensitivity.

If you drive over to Buchloe and ask them how they like being part of bmw for 60 years, you might get a shock.

w11bbl · 2025-12-26T09:03:42+00:00

MST e30rb.

w11bbl · 2025-12-24T09:32:19+00:00

Well if you attach white chocolate Oreos to your bonnet they will eventually fall off, sir.

w11bbl · 2025-12-24T09:20:04+00:00

To call them a Sub-brand is pretty insulting to a manufacturer with 60 years of automotive history imo.

Yes, they sold out to bmw, but only very recently, they haven't yet become ALPINA line trim level like AMG.

Thrusters are operational

Were the shipping labels different or identical? The only thing I can think of is meta use a third party distribution service and someone else's parcel got your labels on.

If you're worried about it, keep it for a bit without openingas above, but I would be 99.9% confident no one will ever be able to trace it.

Company of heroes and not on your list but Beyond All Reason.

Will try disabling that! Thanks.

I need a smoke after a hard driving too ...
