Hardly" i said. not doing 200 mate - i might crash if I looked in the mirror!.

I got a $1000 fine and a 3 year driving disqulaification.

lucky i had a spare licence!

What were you driving at the time??

I've got a new VYII SS and live in the N.T.

Nothing quite as satisfying as passing a cop at 230ish kph and them not being able to do a thing about it....

To back up Marc story (mfettara) I uploaded some blurry pics...

Hold the Phones Batman, another Aussie Beast Owner. And I thought I was the only one.

J/K.

So Dallas, would you like to be the First Board member to see Master Yoda in the flesh?

My Sister lives at Albany Creek, I'm about 1 and a half hours from there. What clour is your beast, Which dealer did you get it from? Brisbane BMW??

How long did you think you could keep it a secret?

Hi Mark:

Would love to catch up. My one is silver, and I just got it from Brisbane BMW. there is another one in Albany Creek, owned by Steve who is the LJ Hooker agent.

Are we the only Aussies with M5's on the board?

cheers
Dallas

"I was going 65 in a 50 and you were going faster than me .... slow down !" -- no ticket. (He was just about to exit on an off ramp and had no way of really knowing my speed).

Hell No, But we are some of the most famous. Or is that Infamous.

Apples is an Aussie. Rodd from NSW and Madmax.

I'm pretty sure we are the only ones from Brisbane.

I'm on the Westside out near Ipswich.

If you have just bought it, its a nice beast. Chunky was looking at it. He bought my 540, he lives in Cairns and added a 125 Shot of NOS to it.

We have to get together with Steve, Three Aussie M5's at the one place, WOW. The Media will probably wonder WTF is going on.

I have a list of Mods longer than your arm. It will be great to see another Beast with the steering on the RIGHT side.

Just having a few birthday drinks at present. Yoda is my ride. He is 1 Today. I took delivery on my birthday.

Talk soon, Regards Mark J aka MIB.

And here, I thought you might BE the ONLY Aussies with beasts! I was in Sydney and Perth over New Year's this year, and I didn't see one M5 in the whole two weeks! The tax structure really works against enthusiasts in Aus - I can't believe how expensive BMW's are there.

All the best
JJ

Hey No problem Dallas.

I have a great camera, but my photography blows.

Drop me an email, and we can arrange a meet up.

Maybe Mt.Cootha. Some Beasts on the mountain to show our Board bro's some views of OZ.

Cameron McLean from McLean motors does a bit of work on the car. He is at Queen street Everton hills. (Just down the road from you.) He did my Powerchip, and then my Powerchip for the Tubi.

It would have been interesting to see if he would have knocked on my door if I wasn't in the driveway. Oh well..

I am a LA Co. lifeguard but i find it had to believe any of the guards would try something like that. When was this? We have no authority to pull you over but we are Peace Officers He couldnt to anything but call the cops on you and "ask' that you be given a ticket.
