I'm not really a car chap but there's one BMW that really won me (but not JTS) over, i saw a couple on the road a few years ago but they're not that common I think.

It had an 'M' summat badge on it and its like an old 'shooting brake' style, sort of like a 2 seater estate! I think it had summat like a 3.5L engine but the best bit was... it had 4 exhaust pipes sticking out the back!! Soooo important I find. Imagine that, a 3.5L engined 2 seater that you can fit sab's in + skateboards and yer girlfriend!

EDIT. One of these...

I was impressed. :D

Back here in reality we own a rusty Escort estate.

PS. 4 Exhausts!

So that's what they ended up doing.
The chap who bought the remains of Reliants 3 wheelers set up a limited production of the 3 wheelers at Acton (Suffolk)-not far from me.

But it did not last long (2001/2002) and he shut down .

Nah, everyone wants proper cars innit? Though I heard they're supposed to be making a comeback, what with fuel prices and wot-not. Something like that

I'll take yer word(s) for it.

In real life they look curvier and more estatey than those piccies show. I reckon with a roof rack, a couple of leaks and some rust it'd suit us just fine.

Did I mention its got 4 exhaust pipes?

I reckon the 5 cyl Audi turbo engines sound pretty good.

Had a Quattro once (early 4 X 4 RHD model with big arches + turbo) and loved it.

My most favourite though is the rumble of a big V-8. :wink:
