Huge cars and a general inability to drive. Sorry Acemastr, we've got our fair share of numpties on the road here but I can hands down say the quality of driving from over the pond is absolutely dire :p

Without a doubt, everyday I see cars cutting people up, driving in the dark with no lights on or high beam on, no brakes lights at all.... no one cares
 
Why would you do this to a 640d? :(

Went browsing cars yesterday, started looking at a 59 plate 520d (which was in lovely condition until we started it!) and ended up test driving a 58 plate Golf TSI which was surprisingly good, didn't buy either as we were just looking but I found some more interesting toys hidden indoors.

Z1, Audi Quattro (which was like new) and an e28 M5 under a dust sheet which was lovely but I didn't get a photo. :/









 
More cynical, that's all they can afford due to the massive lease payments they've signed up to whilst trying to keep up with the Jones' :p
 
Because you know nothing about cars/tyres or you were sold to by some oil money at Kwickcrap

That thing must be a nuisance to drive on those - my 530d is somewhat down on power from a 640d and I found the Goodyear Excellence to be a bit frustrating gripwise let alone random Chinese tyres.

The 640d has 640nm...
 
Indeed, it was lovely - pristine too - alas my iPotato blurred the snaps of it. :/

I always find that really annoying - take some pictures on the phone which look ok at the time, then get them home and find out that they're complete crap.

Lovely cars there by the looks of things though. Z1 a bit of a curiosity as far as classics go. I wonder if they hadn't done the doors whether they'd be worth as much as they are now. By all accounts not a particularly fast car, nor the last word in handling performance, and quite expensive new.
 
The Z1 is a very interesting example of how bizarre used car values can be. It's hard to argue the Z3 wasn't simply a better car but look at those now..

I've got to put new rears on mine, been slip sliding around and they are now shiny.

Supply/ demand maybe and first of its kind or whatever

A total of 8,000 cars were produced.


Total 279,273 and 17,815 (Coupe)

Bloody iPhones! :o

Very annoying, I've snapped some great stuff out & about, it's usually the rare ones that the phone messes up!


Don't get the Z1 at all, quirky for sure but I can't say I like it nor want it, it's not for sale (along with the e28 M5) as both are shooting up in value, the M5 I can understand, it's immaculate and original, the Z1 though just looked like a kit car really, seemed poorly screwed together and those doors......

The Quattro was sublime, a real time warp.

They are at Dave Fox Cars in Stone, Staffordshire - His smaller plot on Newcastle Rd, not his place off the A34 which has a rather nice Z8!
