Our 1993 BMW 318i, and 2014 Bmw 420i Gran coupe, one was a lot easier to get into our Garage.

Enjoy another 20 in good health

That's truly awesome. Congrats!

Love that that Lotus is still running too!

psuibmw · 12-04-2014, 08:12 PM

Not sure what you mean by easier to get into the garage? Which one?

psuibmw · 12-04-2014, 08:13 PM

The 4-series looks wonderful

psuibmw · 12-04-2014, 08:14 PM

How long you kept the '93 318 for?

GOLFFRR · 12-04-2014, 08:25 PM

thats pretty cool!

Enilder · 12-04-2014, 10:46 PM

You need to include your neighbor in that picture too!

AYEDEE · 12-04-2014, 11:30 PM

Back to the future!

sirata · 12-05-2014, 08:43 AM

Went from 318i, to green e46 new in 99 (still have car) to 420i October this year, before I met the wife started off in biking, pics attached.
The e36, and e46, were a lot easier to get into garage due to width, Gran coupe will only go in with mirrors folded, and then its tight.

JustChris · 12-06-2014, 09:01 AM

Superb that!

Not sure if serious but obviously modern cars have grown huge so the 4GC much harder to fit in the same garage I assume.

psuibmw · 12-06-2014, 09:05 AM

Nice journey ... Enjoy in good health ... The 4-series GC is a real nice car and fun
