A day out in the 335D

CD · 01-14-2008, 11:06 AM

ok so i had a day off today, and not being used to having such privleges i was stuck for something to do

so i was reading the forum and saw the january photo thread, that inspired me to go for a drive out and take some photos.

It was a great day, i covered 135 miles on a mixture of roads, including single track roads with grass up the middle ( no i wasnt using a sat nav

) roads that looked like they would fall into the sea at any time , a motorbike racing track !! some really twisty very quiet B roads and of course the old boring dual carriageways. Oh and one road that had so many sheep on it was driving a gauntlet

anyway heres some pictures of my car and my day

Looks like a great trip on a dat off

beemerbird · 01-14-2008, 12:59 PM

Chris, great pics. of car and scenery. Looks like the roads were pretty quiet, which is always nice.

Is that Staithes way on then? Those roads look very familiar (as do the bloody sheep!)

Is that Hamer bridge on the way to Rosedale Abbey in the bottom picture?

Where is the bay in the top photos?

Lovely Pics Chris. Your 335d does look very nice on those rims.

Is she Jet black or sapphire?

i did nearly that in the first day

scotw · 01-14-2008, 02:07 PM

Fab photos, nice way to spend a wet day off.

Nice alloys, what are they ?

SDRX · 01-14-2008, 02:08 PM

hi carlos,

Just taking it real gentle at the moment, almost as if its a little child lol

Wait til i get a few more lessons, the brutality will kick in!!

Despite the low mileage, the amount of mud on the car would suggest i drove through a few farms!!

In all honesty mate, they have been thrashed anyway before you pick them up, even with only 3-5 miles on them

Didnt run mine in

beemerbird · 01-14-2008, 03:18 PM

Chris, Staithes is on the coast road to Whitby. So which part of the coastline is in your pics?

That sheep on the right in the foreground is called Shaun

Spent many an hour at Rosedale chimneys as well - great for bikes.

Hotcoupe · 01-14-2008, 03:37 PM

Loving the wheels CD and the pics are great.
I think this pic is the nicest IMO,really sets the scene,the only thing missing is 'Shaun' the sheep.
