Worthy of an M badge?...

MickyD'bo · 07-14-2018, 03:54 AM

I bloody think so. Just spotted this. Was absolutely mint.

Can't be many of those around anymore. Good spot though the M cars of old were somewhat more subtle even with a genuine M badge.

Is that the Hartge kit?

teaston · 07-14-2018, 05:28 AM

Oh it’s not an M5, just an M535i!

Beautiful. A kids mum used to pick him up from school in this when I was a lad. She also had a quattro.

Back in the 80's that would have been anything but subtle, M cars are still pretty much as they were, slightly more pumped up than there humdrum counterparts that's all.

I used to love the E30 325i Sport M-Tec and they still look well today. Can't say the same for the Peugeot 205 GTI. Very powerful looks in the late 80's, now they look weak and feeble.

Knew I'd seen one in the flesh before. 2012 Motorshow, on the BMW Car Club stand alongside exotica like the E9 'batmobile'.

That off centre exhaust would piss me off.

mikeoz · 07-17-2018, 05:33 AM

That's a mint classic for sure
