My track car, sorry its a bmw but i needed something cheap and pretty competitive so it ticked all the right boxes.





Both these pics taken at castle coombe.



Then this is my tow car once i do my tow license.




Then this was on show at my local ford so be rude not to lay in front of it.



Cheers Steve

 

So photobucket now doesn't work unless you pay i take it?

 

Correctamundo.

 

I think most are using imgur or something

 

That's good of them lol

 

cheers dude I shall have a look into it

 

so its true, i noticed yesterday i aint seeing piccys anymore (not been on much forums in a while) went onto my photobucket account and was wanting payment to view........... fuckin blow me lol

 

Cheers for the advice imgur is much better than photobucket.

 

Cool cars..all 3 of them although don't like the flat gt40 paint.

What engine is in the track car? 328 or m3?

 

what's the cars max tow weight?

 

Just a 328 with generic remapped ecu m50 inlet and air filter it's a good 220bhp.

Not long had the estate that's a 325tds with a manual box.

 

Not looked into yet, realistically I can hire a truck 6 times just for the price of doing my tow license. Would be much happier using a flat bed

 

The 328 feels every bit of the m3 until the last 2000 revs so pretty good anyway.

Good spec estate. I had a new 330d with power pack recently and it had most of the m3 power of n e36 but over 500 lb ft of torque...I think those 325s remap well

 

The estate is chipped but it's proper old school Diesel engine, best way to describe the boost coming in is like waiting for a bus lol.

My wife has a e46 320d big intercooler 330d turbo and mapped it goes well.

 

How do you get the code off your picture on imgur to post online I can't work it out

 

Top right corner of the pic was how I did it gives you more options.

 

Odd I only get 2 options re arrange picture or mature I can't figure it out

 

fair enoigh. I've not looked at the weights online, but I suspect you'd be overweight

 

Yep over weight, i might just borrow a trailor and get a pic just for the sake of it as it would look pretty cool.

 

This is my old track, its the blue one. The purple one was a mate of mine he used it for drifting. Sold my old car as the wife fell pregnant so i panicked.

 

A nice cold and wet brands, it was so slippery but also so much fun. Trying to learn the car in these conditions is really worth it.

 

Did a day at Castle Combe the other day, the day did not go smoothly but still had a cracking day.



I was not getting towed off so i managed to jam it in first and start the car, basically my slave decided to give up.



I need to tighten up my anti roll bars due to the grip of the new tyres. It does not feel like its leaning too bad in the car.

 

That looks like bloody good fun, I do love an e36, best car Bmw ever made imo

 

I've had nearly 100 cars since I started driving, never had a bmw though. I've taken a few out for a spin and they are good cars just never got around to buying one. The blue one you had before looks good, was thinking what it would look like minus the rear spoiler then scrolled down to the side shot of the new car and bingo

 

The blue was nice but was due a lot of work really, my wife fell pregnant so i sold it.

To be fair the silver one is so much track dedicated than the blue one. The silver car has a carbon csl style boot lid, I didn't really fancy a spoiler. The car is so much fun and so driveable, anyone could get in it and drive it hard the chassis gives so much feed back and warning.

 

They are one of my favourite ones too. I have had a few now, strange as I have always loved sierra's. They are just to expensive compared to the old e36 even though the value of them is getting questionable. The old drift boys have smashed them all up.

 

E36 values are creeping up quite rapidly
