Default Just got a new toy

Hello there folks, Just purchased an old 1988 BMW 635 CSI Highline the other week, heres a couple of pics







Im quite impressed with it even though its 20yrs old (almost), its done 150K and drives like a dream, only problems are theres a wee oil leak (hopefully from oil pressure switch), small exhaust blow from one of the downpipes and the front wings are starting to show there age and rott

I too have always liked these

There is one a few doors up from me, that hasnt moved in 5 years, I have meant to knock and see if I can take it off their hands, but the house does look empty a lot of the time, and when it isn't empty seems to be full of suspicious activity

The reg plates have been taken off this Beemer, and they have another one a 5 series that they used for a bit, then removed the plates off it, and have an old Audi A8 which is still on the road occasionally

If it wasn't all so dodgy looking I would go and inquire about it, as it seems a shame to have grass growing underneath it and coming out of the bonnet

Funnily enough my only go in one of these was to return a sale or return on the pitch to a Jamaican, I had to follow him in an M635 in an older 628 or some other lower powered variant, his car was full of Rasta fumes and a couple of trampy white girls !
