Hi Guys
Ive also been away for a few days on business...scraped the alloys on a kerb but thats another story!
I've read with great interest the comments on both sides re the pictures submitted by Randy and the follow up afterwards and wonder if I'm actually missing something. I also saw the e mail to Stan, who I am sure is big enough to look after himself. It all reminds me of the school playground mentality where the 'group' members join forces to rub dirt in the weaker kids face. Come on lets all cast our minds back a few years before the onset of middle age. I expect more than one of us found the sight of a dusky young maiden attractive whilst secreting oneself under the sheets with a torch. As you all said it isn't the photos that were upsetting or perhaps the 'bar' humour [apologies for the u] but the message to Stan. We're all big boys. We drive a car that for years was slagged off by the trade and press alike but have come to love it as much as our friends on the E30 board love their motors too. The references to puberty and the like don't really help the cause as again, if you cast your minds back I expect we all indulged in pretty similar behaviour.
By the way why do you guys always refer to 'imports' as being the Japanese types? Besides the Z3 and now that dreadful X5 I cant think of many other BMW's that weren't imported unless you happen to live in Germany!

All the best and chill!!!

Steve

99 840 but wondering if I should get the hell out of it and get another e30!!!
