Good grief....a thread about a thread that hasn't been started yet. Whatever next??

Anyway, what drugs you people on.....M6 over SLS??? REALLY???

I can't bloody believe it - I sort of understand it when the people I come across in everyday life (who know little about cars) say they prefer the looks of the M6 (it is a more pretty car), but YOU LOT??? Come on chaps, we're meant to be proper petrol heads goddamit!

Yes I do thank you. It's very nice too. Like a browny beige shade....one from BMW's new palette

Yes, yes I have. It took me that long to get back from germany last friday that I stopped off at my aunt's house in Kent. Woke up the next morning to take it to BMW and thought 'shit, I bets get some pics of this car'!

But it says a lot that, apart from that first day I got it and those photo's taken at night, this was the first time I remembered to take some photo's!

I'll upload my final photo's of it on here shortly

Such a lack of love

Yes, shameful. I filled it up yesterday and it came to only £105, after having done about 350 miles. It felt so wrong that I stood on the Shell forecourt and pumped vPower NITRO onto the forecourt floor just to make sure I was back in my comfort zone.

Correct, it's very good. Just can;t bring myself to appear too excited by it having just sold my favourite car.

Now I know that is probably not the case as Andrew buys sensibly and would only buy a car if it was good, but that is the impression it gives, well me anyway.
Well, I've never been the most sensible with cars and money but the SLS, at the price I bought it, was always very low risk. You'd be a nutter to buy one new, no matter how much money you had.

Then again, this is from someone who's just bought a new M6 which, despite being very cheap versus the list price, won't be as low risk as the SLS
