Indeed !! I am not sure how much for these 20's rims, but I'm sure the tires are not going to be cheap.

he had the whole front end replaced when he crashed it last year, rear shunt repair, side crash etc,.hell even the
beige leather has a lot of fag burns, 95k KM etc,. 3 radar detectors (don't know if they work)
and even his number plate has fallen off (+ he has had it flooded twice)
he probably needs a new car
but it is because of him that i experienced an E60 (before he trashed it) and afterwards bought one.
however the mota really goes like stink, it is really rapid, maybe all that runnning in has increased the power somewhat
wow he need to get a toyota that will last much longer

yes they are very friendly and local guys.
It is fun going out with them.
We all take pisses out of each other. Just like our e60 family.

Toyota??? they are supposed to last longer, but don't, Hondas last longer esp the good old Accord,
i think the German cars last longest, but due to the costly parts, people don't run them into the ground.
he was mentioning a twin turbo M3, AMG C63, but i suggested he should get a H1 Hummer (used) and hammer his way around the country (and other cars) instead of ruining such a beautiful Beemer.

as i mentioned he has heated seats, telephone as standard, why don't we get things like that in HK as standard??
