As long as you’ve got your Sheepskin coat to match |

Sheepskin? Each to their own. To me these have always been über-cool and the market seems to be agreeing of late.
One of my father’s more bon vivant friends drove a dark green 850CSi for many years and always made it look effortlessly stylish. Among other things he owned a smart hotel in Knightsbridge and could have easily afforded something more up to date but he just liked his CSi.

That's stunning.
You must be able to perform some sort of man-maths calculation to get it?

That is lovely. I've always liked that 8 series. It makes the new 8 series look like the bloated styling disaster it is. At the Classic Show in 2019, BMW had a big display of old and new 8 series to showcase the new 8-er. All it actually did was show how beautiful the one was.

That’s actually fine for ULEZ as it’s pre-1980 (it tracks the VED exemption), but I never cared for the SLC. I don’t like the weird drawn curtain effect in the rear side windows.

I was following an older model LS the other day and the owner had seen fit to apply a few V8 badges, a 4.3 badge and stuck on (as they clearly were) a pair of chrome tubes to make it look like it had quad exhausts.

I'd consider an LPG converted LS400 for wafting to work.

Time wasn't a great healer so far as the looks were concerned.

So the "private seller" of that Audi is offering a 12 month warranty and finance too. That's very generous........  |

Looks a bit like it's been lowered in the final exterior shot and the pimp glass all round sets off warning sirens!

Not sure what that Audi has been doing when "2 new tyres last 4,000 miles"

Age has not made that 7 series any better looking.
Nice interior combo on the S500.

Not sure what that Audi has been doing when "2 new tyres last 4,000 miles" I suspect that what the seller meant was "2 new tyres fitted within the last 4000 miles", but it doesn't come across like that |

I spent an hour on the Pistonheads 'Best smoker barges 1-5 large Vol17' thread.
It's a dangerous place.

I will never be able to unsee that interior. Who TF specified that as an interior?  |
