I used to have two cars...stump posted:1995 BMW 325 TDS SE (143 diesel horsies, 5 speed) daily driver & 1975 Triumph Toledo 1300 (60hp of english rwd granny car fury) rally car. ... then I ended up with just an old triumph as a daily driver.. stump posted:But today I took a train down to blackpool and drove this back up to scotland...  Jagshemash! My name a Bora!  '99 VW Bora SE TDI 110 5 speed. Its a bit slower than the BM, and seems a bit wooly in the handling department but I love it already. Its got 116k on the clock and I paid £1500 for it. I'm pretty tempted to buy some nice alloys and lower it, since the suspension and front tyres probably need done anyway.

I really like the colour on the Murcielago, what's the paint name, is it the standard Lambo Red or a custom Rosso Nome Italiano Pazzesco?

It's just more fun in my mind, even though it really shouldnt be, and it was also considerably cheaper than the m3. I guess you're right though.

Is it just me or do European-style licence plates (narrow and long) look better than their North American counterparts (thicker and shorter)?

wintermuteCF posted:Is it just me or do European-style licence plates (narrow and long) look better than their North American counterparts (thicker and shorter)? Some models seem to have inserts or a redesigned rear ends that change the shape of the plate area (e.g. S-Class, 7-Series) but mostly they look wrong. Any vehicle wider than it is tall will look strange with a square plate anyway, but when the car itself was designed around another shape you have no hope of getting it looking right. Can you not order oblong plates? We can order square plates (e.g. to fit U.S. imports -- friend had them made specially for his GMC 'A-Team' van) it's just that they're illegal
