[Scania]

Snapped this AC Scnhitzner 840 from the dashcam on my truck yesterday, it sounded wonderful as it passed me, Aston esque if anything! - glorious! - a lovely deep V8 sound, thankfully I pulled my Scania up behind it prior to joining the M20.....

I like the minimalist design Astern use. They make it a nice shape and keep it clean.

So, only from the back then?

 

[Yaayuh!]

Potato pic of a nice D5 estate

On the M4 today, one of the few cars that can pull off Gold I think. As soon as we left the contraflow it disappeared off into the distance.... presumably for a wash.

We saw one of those in teal last night - again one of the few modern cars that could pull off that colour. Looked fantastic!

 

[BananaDunka]

Derp.

 

[Dis86]

Lol what a loser.

 

[theone8181]

Derp.

Parkings pretty special too

 

[Akagi]

Standard taxi driver parking.

I really hope someone stuck the M5 badge on it as a joke...

You reminded me to find this though, a pic I took at Santa Pod 2017 and lost until recently... Should annoy some people.



Also found this which I'm not sure if I posted before... Not a "daily encounter" in the usual sense, but shows just how "mini" a newer Mini actually is...

 

[Cookeh]

Yuuup.... even the Fabia is smaller than the Mini - but still bigger than my brick.

 

[Nasher]

The Mini isn't mini any more (in size or name) :/

[Jokester]

The worst thing about the mini though, despite it now being massive, it's still ****ing tiny inside!

It's like an anti Tardis.

 

[[TW]Fox]

The Mini isn't mini any more (in size or name) :/

Which is why it's such a brilliant car.

 

[Akagi]

You'd hate them or at least not care about them if they werent BMW's though right?

Shame the new ones are so ugly. The R56 was the sweet spot in the looks departmeny I think.

 

[ShivP]

New one felt meh to me as a passenger, not much room for me altho i am quite tall and fat and nothing particularly special inside and outside
Rather have a new fiesta or polo
+1 reverse tardis like the old shape Q7

I still can’t warm to the F56 Cooper S, that front bumper is terrible. The Cooper bumper is so much better.

Thought the facelift would improve things but no.

 

[Jonnycoupe]

The Mini isn't mini any more (in size or name) :/

Good cos I wouldn’t have bought a Countryman if it was anything like the original mini.

Also impressive inside for a 4.1m long car.

On the motorway today seen a diesel 3 series presuming it was a 330/335d as it was proper shifting and had twin exhausts but he was driving like an absolute tool tailgating and undertaking etc but i have never seen so much thick black smog coming out of a car in my life no exaggeration everytime he touched the accelerator it was chugging thick clouds into the air that were lingering and the whole rear end was black like it had been down a coal mine. It was a white car aswell which made it appear far worse.
What the hell has been done to that to chuck such thick clouds of black smog out? Im sure it was only been about 6 years old aswell so couldn’t have been knackered and should have decent emissions in place even if remapped with being newish

 

[BananaDunka]

Probably remapped and then thrashed to its balls until stuff started to go kaput.

I was behind a new 4 series today, it was nice and blue, marina blue they call it iirc? It had the full competition package, but was only a 430d or something like that, only two exhaust tips on one side. The guy was flooring it everywhere. I did notice it had the M4/M3 wing mirrors. It's a sad sight to see, M car specific items filtering into the options list for lower models...
