To celebrate the launch of the new E92 M3 we decided to get a few oldskool M's together and clean them up for the showroom.
some of these cars are worth serious money and i love them all especially the bosses old touring car which he won the championship in,wicked piece of kit and probably the only touring car i will ever get to drive.
so here we go
BMW M1 uses the old m5 engine and weighs next to feck all
M6 3.0 CSL (the bat mobile)with a genuine 12000 miles on the clock
american spec E30 M3 EVO II
UK spec uber rare J plate evo II M3 so mint we had to push it in
my fav the bosses old touring car if you don't know who my boss is it's steve soper and this is from his collection worth around 70k
and of course me having a play
one of my fave E46 M3's The CSL
and the new E92 M3 4.0 V8 really nice car to drive plenty of power
the event is on all this weekend in Lincoln at soper bmw if you want to pop along for some free grub and a nosey at the cars

By converting them to RHD, it would lose power because of the manifold/steering column design, so they didn't bother.
And that M6 CSL is the sex

You would never get me out of there, E30 porn!
Our local dealer is not getting the E92 M3 in until next weekend, going to have a look around it, I can only wish they have such sexy cars on display!
