BMW M2 Competitionmy motorsRoadtrips

We return to Wales in the M2 Competition.

Whispers subtly bouncing around school hallways, suggestive gossip in alleyways – there are rumours abound stating Wales is no longer the driving mecca we know, with speed cameras and police presence ending the pilgrimage – I sacrifice myself by driving

I’m just going to put this up here

The current M4 may be susceptible to varied criticism, but I can’t help but feel it’s one of the best looking M cars ever.

BMW M4 – into the Darkness

BMW gets aggressive with the M4 – dismissing all pleasantries. Is it stronger as a result of this new attitude?

I made a mistake – I went to see the Alpina

I love photographic memoirs of my cars. I have tens of thousands of photos of my cars, but I can never get close to the artistry of a professional photographer. Stephen Hall, from www.stevehallphotography.net, is a friend who has done

1987 BMW E30 Alpina C2 2.7 for sale

Oh boy this is hard. I’ve just had the car go through its final stages of restoration. It’s had absolutely everything done now and needs no work at all and at no expense spared. It’s currently sitting at CG Performance

M3 going back – not all is as it seems

I talk about an issue that involves drama. I swear I don’t make this stuff up.

M3 Purchased – Born Again

It’s been a long time. Putting aside my frivolous dally with the C63 AMG back in 2012, it’s been nearly four years since I sold my last decent car and I’ve basically endured a drought of such magnitude it would

Time to end the drought?

I mull over and decide to move the E30 onto somebody more able to take care of it. Meanwhile, time for me to jump into a toy.

E30 Alpina goes in for work – fourth time lucky!

How many times can I go through with this? I’ve just dropped off my E30, C2 2.7 Alpina to a workshop of a friend to have the work completed hopefully, for good this time I hope. It’s now had 3

BMW 118d oh why do I bother…

Yes I sold the Mini. In its stead I now use a 118d day to day. A 2.0 turbo diesel, I have to say that it’s been an absolutely brilliant daily. 8 speed automatic makes it an absolute doddle to

Alpina C2 2.7 back in my care, for now

What is it about an old car like this that makes you forget about its countless foibles, allowing you to convert a tiresome, 100 mile drive in a troublesome car into a delightfully vivid trip down memory lane? It’s like
