I cant think of any circumstances were id go for old school.
|
Lol....the s2 went and the e60 came. I find the e60 a tad boring and have an itch for another old skool motor
|
Old school, Any cosworth/Audi Quattro/Lancia intergrele.

old school every time new cars are mostly generic pieces of plastic ,mostly look the same :cry::cry::cry:
|
When I want a bit of fun the saffy cosworth comes out to play, the BMW is a great motorway muncher, quite, stable and punchy if you need it, also good round town with the auto box cannot fault it realy.
|
Old Skool all day long
|
The f10 is a lovely motor.....is yours petrol or diesel?
|
I go old school, I'm too young to have a sensible car, most newer cars are, old school rules.

There's no way I have an old skool car for a daily!
I love my 3 Door but no way I'd use it every day my Passat CC GT 140 Diesel is awesome as daily. Attachment 76062 Attachment 76063 Rich |

There's a lot to be said for progress in car design. New school for me, old stuff is nice to pull out for a play or cruise on a nice day but id rather do my daily commute with a nice light clutch, light steering comfy seats etc....

I would have the bm.Sell it and buy an escos and spend the rest on it.
The S2 is the cooler car and will get more looks than the BM. |

I agree the s2 gets more looks but usually because they don't know what it is |

them 2 arnt comperable e30 against f10 escort against focus st imo that is,
|
none of them are comparable. you cant compare a 20+ year old car with todays modern technology in anything other than rose tinted specs personal opinions.
in most cases id have the new car over the old. |

Old skool for the weekend, newer for the commute.
But given the choice which would you have.......S2 FRS or 3 door.....hmmmm |
3dr for me cause its more special. The mk2 focus are a good car but there are loads about.

Saying that i would love a weekend car but you tend to have more problems with a weekend/toy than you do with a daily |
So true in winter new school vise versa but driving a new car daily does get boring nothing goes wrong with them lol old school have much charecter .
|
My lad drives the s2 as a daily without any major problems and not let him down in the last 18 months , I hope this comment doesn't bollocks it :)
but I couldn't use it as a daily, with no power steering you need arms like popeye to park it. |
I dont like Ford or BMW so thats a tough choice between those two.
Using that old Escort daily must be the nearest thing to hell on earth it was a very average car when it came out can only guess how shocking it feels now. The Beemers vie for the title of most boring car on the planet but at least it would be comfortable. So after much though the Beemer wins. Can we not compare old & new Audis where both would be great cars :clap:. |
not trying to compare ford or bmw, just whether you would prefer an old classic car ( that's another can of worms to open, whats a classic?)to a newer model

Here's one for people to debate then, Ferrari F40 or 458. That's a toughie. |
on looks alone 458 as never had the chance to drive either and probably never will.

and id even rather drive about in a new basic rep mobile than a "classic". Christ , I remember the days of the manual chokes on cold winter mornings....:cry: |
Simple old skool all day long, well at least mid 90's or older!!
I hate the way new cars have a light and a buzzer for every conceivable thing! BING *dash light illuminates* "the road may be icy". I fucking know I've got a winter coat and gloves on and have just had to scrape the ice off the windows ffs :wall: BING *dash light illuminates* "fuel level low" I know I'm on my way to the fuel station :angry: BING *dash light illuminates* "tyre pressure......." starts smashing the dash to pieces :bat: |
