Title: Need a new toy, can't decide
Post by: omegod on 09 March 2009, 20:24:05

Hi all,

I sold my mint 190e Merc a while ago and have itchy fingers, so the choice is either-

st165 celica GT4 around 86-89

E28 M535i BMW of similar vintage

I dont think you can beat a bit of old school cool espescially on classic insurance! Im keeping the Miggy by the way.

Can anyone link up a couple of decent pics as I dont know how to ?

Any opinions welcome

Beemer for me.  Every time and still prefer the older shape.

Am not into the E numbers, But my fav over the years were the 535i  with the dual center pipes about X plates.

Plus even older in the early 70's was the 3.0csl
