Name one successful thing he’s done since 2000 that wasn’t his Radio 2 shows. (Hint you can’t because all his ventures bombed)

I actually own a 2001 BMW 330i touring with a stick, as well as literally driving a van for a living, but yes, occasionally I am in a car and I am not driving. Shocker I know.

Don’t want spoilers, don’t come on the internet, sorry.

Hamilton isn’t British, well I wish he wasn’t anyways.

CHRIS EVANS IS SO EXCITED BUT IS LIKE A SPANIEL THAT DOESN’T REALLY KNOW WHAT’S HAPPENING.

Watch the Rory and Harris thing, it’s much better, it’s a bit unpolished but it has good potential.

The only thing I didn’t like on Extra Gear was that the editing was a bit crap. Also I went to school with Chris Ramsey, and he’s not exactly into cars, so that bothered me, but that’s mainly because I like him as a comedian and found it a bit painful talking about things he’s not really into.

He’s not quite as shouty on the radio, but he is still annoying on it, one of the main reasons that I don’t like being passenger in my mother’s car in the morning is having to be subject to his Radio 2 breakfast show.

Actually most of his stuff this century, apart from the Radio 2 breakfast show, have been a complete disaster. And it’s not hard to understand why, he’s awful. (I tried not to hate him, I tried)

Extra Gear was great, just kinda shows that all Top Gear needed was Rory, Harris and Sabine (although I do like Matt LeBlanc too).

Really wanting an E30 or E21, need a bit more money first though. Most of my mates BMWs are about 25 year old.

Yep, do 90% of the work myself, and my 2001 330i hasn’t been too much of a hassle, just bits I’m not surprised that have gone, like bushes and the clutch, that could happen with any car.

I agree there’s some pigs out there, there is with every car, but that’s just an anecdote, sorry. Between me and 4 of my mates, we’ve had about 12 BMWs, with my 2001 330i being the newest, and they’ve been brilliant.

Exactly this! I’ve got a 2001, 330i, and yes it needed bits, but it’s just normal wear and tear for a 16 year old car. Brakes, bushes, and a clutch is all it’s needed so far. But it’s got 146,000 miles on it right now, plan to put a lot more on it too.

Okay, you enjoy your washing machine, each to their own.

Yawn. A 16 year old BMW is no more expensive to maintain then a 16 year old car of any other manufacturer. (source, owner of a 16 year old BMW)

We don’t have guns.

Ah for once Americans getting a car that’s significantly more expensive in the US than it is in the UK. It’s £33k over here, which is about $48k. HAH.

I remember they were doing that with 1Ms, the OBD port could be accessed by smashing the window and reaching down the door without activating the alarm sensors. They’d programme the new key and drive off.

Not really anymore. The STs and nice cars are apparently stolen to order by gangs these days. It’s not a common thing, you just hear about it on these fb posts because it’s somewhere where people could help.
