A real lack of 8 series....

I saw it but to be honest I think that one is a bit dull looking. Would much rather have this one :

Or this if I could live without heated seats:

From a factual point of view, green cars are hideous. The Atlantis Blue one is nice - but tan plastics aren't.

I'll take the Old Colonel one and you can have one of the ugly ones

As the owner of this I must respectfully disagree.....

I’d have to disagree there Ken! I think fern/boston/oxford and beige/tan leather is a classic combo for a 90s BMW, particular a coupe/convertible.

I’ve always been a fan of the 8. I remember there was a longtermer in BMW Car (maybe an 840) back in the late 2000s, early 2010s but there didn’t seem to be a month that went by without something going wrong on it. It put me off them as an ownership proposition but it might have been just a rough one to start with.

I don't mind tan leather, but the tan plastics aren't great. I'm ok with certain greens - but I'd be rattle canning an oxford green or malachite green car if it even came into my possession! Its the colour choice for those who are partial to tweed caps and genital herpes.

. Nah, tell us what you really think there Ken!

BTW, I'm with you on the Old Colonel car, quite taken with the Sold Royal Red one too (although, job 1 would be to replace the non-std wheels).

I like it, but I'd prefer romantic red -



That black one Old Colonel has is more or less my perfect 8er

An entry level 316d on PCP or the 8'er above - what's wrong with some people....
