Aren't those 7-series a LOOKER. I'm not much of a BMW licker but those things are just 'right', I love the look of them.

I see that one has been lifted with a hiab unforch.

 

Despite BMW I must agree.

If one of those in non borked V12 flavour came along, I could get seriously weak knees.

A man must own a V12 once in his life and I'd prefer it to a Jag.

 

There. I said it.

I reckon this might be quite cool. Sadly the owner is a complete spacker

very reluctant sale of my recently purchased escort cabriolet i bought this off a very close friend who inherited it off a lady whos family it was kept in up till present bought from new and had it serviced and maintained all of its life up to a couple  years ago

 

And breathe

 

 i think with a new roof mot and polish this could be worth in excess of £4000

 

I think you're deluded

Oh lordy, if I was involved tonight in a round of "the biscuit game" with a bunch of prem-ejac-prone teens, this car would ensure that I would not be the loser.  HAWT.

 

Thanks for sharing.

Those wipers look like they would be very effective at leaving a dirty annoying streak right down the middle of the window - MOT phail?

It isn't a turbo. I'm still trying to see the "custom bodywork" ?

They don't leave a streek in the centre because one of them sweeps the centre and then gets out of the way of the other one. It is a really shit arangement, less swept area than a single wiper.

 

One of several irritating ways Renault / Alpine went out of their way to spoil an otherwise really good car.

And now a Series II Morris Major!

 

(The Series 2 had the longer wheelbase & body, but still had the original 1489cc engine.  The 1622cc version was the later Elite.)

Now just look at this re-carpet job!  Love the red-coloured heel mat insert.

That's a worrying definition of 'win'. Enjoy your Mcvities.

Garden tat. Much easier, no linkage to bother with.

I should show that to my customer who insisted on spending over £700 getting an mot on her heap of an MGF. 2 Days later and I am taking the head off due to 5 litres of water in the oil. At this point she decides to say that she thought it might of been putting water in the oil.

She gets max points if she poured the water in through the dipstick hole. Actually saw this happen with oil on a garage forecourt along with moaning about how they hadn't made the orifice big enough.

I find stories like these fascinating.

Aren't there things one should know just because one lives?

UK Wolseley 1500 extensively redjigged for Oz where the original wooden dashboard would have been unsuitable for all that sun.post-7547-0-43603100-1493980503_thumb.jpg
