Hi,

Confession time, said the the E34 M5 was the
best car I ever owned.

As an all rounder, yes.

The one that put the biggest smile on the
Primates face was this one, apart from
when it was serviced etc !!!

Digital cameras where not really
around so these were taken by a
colleague outside his home.

All his neighbours complained as it
had a Race Exhaust, and all their
windows vibrated when you revved
it up.

Get it right and you would be smiling
all day long, get it wrong and your Bank
Manager woul be smiling for months.

Did about 5,000 miles, [700 ish on Track] in
around 14 months and then sold it, as you always
had the feeling that a real big moment was
just around the next corner.

Regards,

The Gorilla.

Danny, i fancy going back to my roots and building a classic race car most likely to be either a 64/5 Falcon Sprint or a 64-66 Mustang just fancy a change so the E36 is up for grabs if you know anyone £14k with spares add fire system and its ready to race.

Glad to hear the cars moving on last time i heard you were having nightmares getting SPA sensors etc ?

let me know when its out on rack would love to pop down

I heard that you had sold or were selling your E36 Track Car ?

Yes, the E30 M3 is complete, all been dynoed, etc.

I would love to know how the V8 Judd engined white
Swedish E30 M3 performs, as the engine in that car
is about 40kg lighter, 100 BHP more, and even further
back than a S14 4 pot sits.

What are you plans then if the E36 has gone or going then ?

Regards,

The Gorilla.
