Looks more like a Dodge Magnum.

It's a 300C Touring. We don't get the Magnum over here.

Is there a 120d M Sport?

Yes, there is:

£23,890.

I wonder how many more years BMW need produce non-M3/M5 cars with M branding somewhere on them before people actually realise that M is not the same as M3? It's been 21 years so far..

:O I always thought the M Sports had better bodykits etc but the one i posted above had none of the sports kit I could see :/

 

[Bunka]

Ooowf.

1 Series bodykit isn't anything special and is quite easy to not notice.

The M badges fitted at the factory always on the left?

Ive seen a few E39's with them on the right where the model should be. Looks a little odd.

Fox yours has the M badge on the left does'nt it?

 

[cdcopyman]

i actually thought the bmw sports ( m ) didnt really come with rear M badges. i know the steering wheels have the m badge but not actuall on the rear of cars.

Saw a Z06 for the first time in ages whilst stuck in traffic near Donington:

Also saw this monstrosity:

 

[Clarkey]

that isn't a Z06, in fact it isn't even a C6, it's a C5.

The dealer-fit M badges usually replace the model inscription. I think, personally, that this looks cack.

Fox yours has the M badge on the left does'nt it?

Yea, becuase I thought the 'right' way to fit them was cack Although I did notice one at my local dealer the other day on the sales forecourt with the badge in the same place as it is on mine. Perhaps it differed from dealer to dealer. They were always a dealer-fit option and not a factory-fit option, though.

Also saw this monstrosity:

Ah so thats what Phate has been up to.

Damm beaten to the gag.

 

[jaykay]

I think its the old version. It looks like it has the pop up head lights.

 

[Shoei]

Bradford to Morecambe rally today.

Bristol AC replica.

Seems that this AC replica isnt a replica and is the real deal.
Googling the registration plate shows it Sold at auction in 1995 for a mere £36,000.
Its an AC Ace-Bristol, 6 cylinder, 1971cc engine with around 120bhp.

 

[Phate]

Ah so thats what Phate has been up to.

Anyway, this is kinda cheating as Dad owns it BUT it comes out about once a year and sounds awesome only had my phone on me so excuse the quality and enjoy!

 

[West]

Snapped another Aston, seems to be a few round by me just recently, this DB7 was rather nice I thought... again sorry for the carpy photo

 

[Bennah]

Saw an R8 today, first one in flesh Ive seen. Was black as they come, looked stunning!
