Heidel_Kakao Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Amazing purchase! 😀 I hope to see this in the metal soon. What's next? Someone buys a DB5? Well I would too if I won the lottery as well as a black SM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels a bit dodgy posting a Streetview link to the exact place, but here's a screengrab: The black BX (K995 BMJ) is the car I'm most intreged about on Rouple St. And yeah, everybody has seen those cars a million times already! 15 hours ago, Slappy said: Another one who witnessed the escapade emerging with Jonny on Twitter, via the competition* win. Well kept on your promise, you lunatic! +1 on keeping the US spec front end, I'd not realised that they'd been exported to the States either, so would propose keeping them as is. If by any chance you want/need an internet stranger who happens to be up t'A3 to stand around and suck air in through one's teeth, I can help! Or hold stuff, I can do that too... Ha! Well I actually promised to bid on it, not buy it. I was a bit bummed-out that evening, though. Probably did it as a mood booster! 1 hour ago, tooSavvy said: ..... Dont worry about the "ugly" front end. As a good friend once remarked, "a blowjob is a blowjob. It doesn't matter what she looks like as you cant see her face when shes at work".....
