As I was at the shop to store the M5 for the night, a mate came by with his wonderful M535i experiencing some radio problems. I had my "Mr Hyde" M535i out front aswell as a clients Touring. Ofcourse, some pics!
My M535 on the far right, being a work-in-progress to say the least, next to Lukas's mint M535i and the E34s
Stickers depict the logo of the website recently launched in opposition to the idiotic plans of our government to extract even more money from the car owners :
Now isn't this a "Stephen King-esque" sight? :

E30 M3
E28 B7
E30 racer
couple of mint Touring's
E39 540T (virtually every option)
E34 B10
E34 540/6
E90 330d (with a little DMS under the hood)
Lotus Omega
Lotus Elise
Won't be easy getting all those in one shot! Not to mention the small chance of those all being together at the shop since I can only work on so many cars at one time
Would definately be driven by the bad guys, menacing!
It would seem that your government are as motor vehicle friendly as ours! They would look a bit silly if we all stopped using our cars though..... They have us by the balls
It may sound harsh, but I don't new-year-well-wish the people responsible for the current mess in holland in those aspects. They should be ashamed. Anything with a reg plate on it is regarded as milk-cow to pay for stupidities. But I have a new system to take care of that
Anyways, the cars sure looks a lot "harder"than the E34's. If I overtake someone who has been trotting about in their throw-away vehicles in front of my nose , they usually give me the angry look. But when doing the same with the E28, they don't even dare to look to the side, being afraid to end up in the trunk!!

Hi Wout
The motorist is an easy target i guess it's happening more everywhere, it is pretty appalling, especially when they use the 'global warming' trump card to justify it.. Yep lets just blame the cars! You wouldn't mind so much if you felt they had a genuine concern for reasons were penalised. They seem to be getting desperate for ideas though, We've gone from Drink Driving to Speeding to using the phone then reducing lots of speed limits so we can do the whole speeding thing again to compulsory child seats to erm some phone hands free kits and nav units, What about the sh1t drivers (by the way i don't condone any of the above) Don't lift a cheek in the car when farting that will be 'without due care and attention'
I'm interested in your 'system to take care of that'....
Can't say too much about The System in public, but it works a charm
I'm afraid you're not much better off in Blightey compared to our madness. I wouldn't mind as much if the money was used on things I can relate to, but instead the most idiotic systems and commissions are brought to life whilst its getting harder and harder to get ANYTHING done from local governments. Our town hall opening time is a laugh, because they claim not many people visit it..That's only because some of us don't have time to wait all morning for some bi-atch to press a button for € 19 stating that you actually LIVE in town!!

How true
All the madness makes each trip to the GREAT Nordschleife even better, wo betide the individual who interferes with that part of the world....
Well, the annual fight against the Greens to keep the Ring open isn't something that cheers one up.
Thank the Lord that Angela Merkel already said that the Germans will keep their limitless Autobahn speeds, so I have a little bit of hope that there still are sane people in their government . The ones in ours have all been killed physically or mentally!
