...and I thought he was Irish? ........anyway, its been a long time since we heard from Father Ted over here. I miss his.. um.....clarity of purpose. ...and that (presumably) Gaelic caption ... might that translate (loosely) as "Oh, my achin' nuts!" or some such? Long day and I'm going goo...

16"x? ?

I just can't stop looking at it. It looks exactly right. Subtle and right. Gene Bockenstedt is one lucky guy. If I may ask - what wheel/tire combination is that? I love the deep dish!
Drooling,
Dick (go ahead - make up your own joke)

Thanks Hoadie. This looks like another area where I'm not as up-to-date as I'd like. I could use a term in "Lighting 101 - a synopsis of lighting options in the 21st Century"....

The review of bulbs Horsetan links to is interesting but what do the reviewers mean by "plus30" and "plus50"? Wattage over stock???

-- and it looks like it might belong there.

Very nice,
Dick

And a big thanks for that.

UUC ? Who? What? Where?
Thanks,
Dick

I wish mine would get stuck so it would stop bothering me. It's like a waggling finger from a stern adult critical of my adolescent behavior.

This, in my not-so-humble opinion, is the best automotive site around (at least that I've ever found). The organization is clear and intuitive. I started programming in BASIC with boxes of cards and a pencil and I haven't programmed anything since I learned FORTRAN at university. I'm a computer user...

last seven digits of you V.I.N. - you need to remember them anyway.

.....you spot another six for an instant :o and it's worth telling friends about (and the story is far longer than the sighting...far longer :roll: ) .....other BMW drivers fall into two catagories 1) those who acknowledge you (even slightly) and 2) those who just happen to be driving a BMW.

:D :D Congratulations. You seem like a couple with a long future ahead. :shock: :D Although I love my wife of nearly 15 years dearly... she still calls my '85 sixer " your white car". Looks like I'll have to share my enthusiasm with my 11 year old daughter -- two tires howling and she says...

You can walk all around the car, look inside anywhere and there isn't a line that's wrong. Trimmed out with different spoilers, wheels, colours the car never offends the eye. (or ear, for that matter.) The list of cars that fit that description is damn short.

Dick

Nice car. Now tell me you got it cheap and I'll be doubly jealous.

The memory of Jeremy Clarkson trying to lever himself into one was particularly amusing... Top Gear is hard to find over here.. but it is easily the best car show on the air. Some of the things that Clarkson et al. do make you wonder if they have a special pact with the devil (guardian angel? unlik...

Val,
Looks like a great day. Quite a range of toys. That black turboed 3.0 CS (I think) looked particularly interesting. Nice 6 series turnout too. I hope to join in the fun next summer. Stay in touch.
Dick

Beautiful!
You are insane (but in a good way). If you want to come to Canada you would be welcome (for about 80 hours under my car). I can provide food and bed and as much Heinekin as you need. No?
Great car.
Dick

Welcome david 633. Mine is a 1985 635CSi in white. I'm newish to this 6-series world. Yours is the first BMW with the same wheels that I have on mine. Know anything about them? I can't find any reference to that particular wheel. I love the classic 5-spoke design. Clean, simple and covered centre. S...

Shouldn't that be a Cocker Spaniel?

Sorry, but I just had to say it.

1- Make a forked end to go on your slide hammer. Imagine a flat piece of plate bent into a large "C" shape. The top horizontal screwsor bolts onto the end of the slide hammer and the bottom horizontal has a slot cut into it that fits snug around the shaft just under the knob. The vetical p...

Gotta love it!
