Car appreciation... the aesthetics, the engineering, etc

More and more thinking that this might replace the Volvo: http://www.agustaautomotive.com/cars/bmw/alpina/b10/108883/0

Or one of the other 10 UK cars.

so nice!

Would need to get serious about advertising the 850R though, and of course finding someone who wanted it.

Little bit bigger.

I'd have the Volvo over hat any day.

Looking for some inspiration for a project... what are people's favourite race car liveries of the 80's and early 90's?

Answers on a postcard please.

Fuck yes. That's a great buy.

BMW art car or GTFO.

Got Koons art car job on the go already. Just finished a BASF M1 Procar tribute. Am done with BMW for a while.

Always my favourite:

I approve of this.

Rothmans Porsche or Silk Cut Jag?

Gotta love a ciggy x biek juxtacollab (TM).

I, for one, applaud your fucktheULEZ stand.

You can't even keep a 911 serviced for £10 a day.

Williams FW16 tho...

edit: or...

Coolant for a 996 911 - anything G12 fine to use?

Thanks guys, keep 'em coming! @edscoble @6pt @Soul @hugo7 @Hefty @Emyr

Did you just pay over £5k to service the Porker only to find it has no coolant in it?
You need to stop taking your car to that garage.

Oh wow.

What else didn't they actually do for all the maddorra$?

It swallowed 1.5 litres of coolant to get to full, coolant system as a whole takes 22 litres.

I'm going to assume that this was an air pocket in the system somewhere, which on my drive home got burped out - but yes, this was not what I expected.

It could be but surely they'd have test driven it to make sure?

Call me old-fashioned, but I'd expect it to be right after that bill.

So. Many. Liveries.

I did like these Franco Tributes when they came out.

How much does one charge for such a respray dare I ask?
