HMC WBOD news

[HMC]

Got a new millstone on the way today. It features in this Ronin car chase. Alas its not the 6.9 merc! Any guesses?

[Bren]

The silver megane on the mountain road?

[Supernaut]

Audi S8?

[grogee]

The only other Ronin car chase star is a 406 V6. There was one on the Ebay tat thread so I imagine @HMC has immediately impulse purchased it. 

[Mrs6C]

The XM, hopefully...

Is it the dump truck they narrowly avoid?

[HMC]

IIRC theres also an e34 and another chase sequence (iirc with a 406 ) where loads of chod gets trashed on a dual carriageway but its specifically the ambush chase with the lovely 6.9 it features in. Not only the model but also (if its not been overdubbed) also the same engine.

It was due tonight but now due during tomorrow. 

[HMC]

Its been in the e bay tat thread within the last few weeks IIRC (that was the inspiration behind the purchase basically) plus obv i want to drive it aggressively in the south of france.

[gadgetgricey]

If it was the parts Megane in wolverhampton pop in and say hi.

[Schaefft]

Im pretty sure I posted a cheap V6 XM somewhat recently, I have definitely not seen an S8!

Edit: Or could it possibly be!?

Well, its here. What is it?

It has a v6. It has hydropneumatic suspension. Lots of buttons, some of which work. And a lot of waft factor.

Top banana! That is amazing. 

[HMC]

Ps its not been smacked up the front, i just hadnt closed the bonnet properly. 

[Marm Toastsmith]

YES

[Twiggy]

That`s a lovely looking thing !

[Zelandeth]

Wow, that's nicely specced...more than a little envious.

[HMC]

Think its the PRV-12v v6 in this? IIRC it isnt all that great an engine?

[HMC]

The purchase was inspired by the e bay tat thread, but the 406 coupe got my french taste buds triggered.

 

In the frame was also a rough looking 1994 factory registered xjr but ive had loads of xj40/x300/x308 jags and an s type - r and never had an xm. Plus i love ronin and cant afford a merc 450sel 6.9

[hairnet]

you waited till @Frogchodwas out of the country obvs

 

[beko1987]

Nice! Do miss wafting around in mine, and the space! 

[wesacosa]

ooh that's rather nice. Would suggest getting on the club-xm forum if you intend to do any fettling as there are some helpful people and stuff on there 

[mk2_craig]

Mega oof!

[Bear]

Cor, jealous. Never sure if they look better without the centre slat on the nose, but I miss the off-centre badging of the S1 (and the mirror location and two-tone grey plastics).

PRV is not as much as nightmare to maintain as either 24V generation.

when is it getting t boned by an audi in a market square

 

[High Jetter]

Top buyage. AS is doing well today, with this and @Barry Cade's new lurvemobile.
