I was looking at an immaculate one the other day,MY96. Thought it was a good looking car. Never driven one though.

Chaos. what is SMG mode
Its where the gears are in automatic, the gear change is rapid and violent It just rips through all six gears in what seems like a few seconds

And I had to post with talk about the M3, such a fine motor.

M3's are well know for sounding bad when setting off from cold - some owners let them warm up first, but I don't think it ever causes a problem - well no more so than driving any other car from a cold start.

There you are - I made sensible post about the M3 - don't worry normal service will be resumed very shortly.

tiggers.

P.S. dave, why do you put those images after every single one of your posts? Not having a go just asking as I can't see what they're adding to the posts that's all!
