Had a trip out today to veiw a classic im buying and had the joy of huge traffic jams on the A303 around Stonhenge
Sat in the line ahead was a DSB 10 plate E89 23i
Also a lil further up i could see a Black Coupe, then i caught sight of 2 white E89's one going west, the other travelling east closly follwed by a black E85, all these in the space of 15 mins around 3:00.....felt like a Zed meet

That's actually quite cool. Would I drive it? No, but it's fitting for Deadmau5

Silver 59 plate 35i with the roof down enjoying the winter sun near the Audi dealership towards Tower Park in Poole yesterday afternoon. I was a in my black 35i behind also with the roof down.

Loved the chance to hear a 35i pulling away without actually being inside it too! Sounded nice (and definitely a stock exhaust)....now I know what mine sounds like, louder than I thought.

Followed a black E89 today coming out of Maidstone. Obviously not as tough as me in my E85 though, he had his roof up. Good heavens, man, it was only zero degrees!

Drove past a DSB e89 this afternoon, at the Dunsden Green roundabout by Sonning. I was headed back towards Reading, DSB towards Shiplake & Henley. We both had the roof down :thumbsup:

Went to wave to a black e89 on private plate in hagley Worcestershire tonight until I realised he was fully focused with his hand holding his phone to his ear! So didn't bother distracting him further. He got himself into the wrong lane (left) when he wanted to turn right at an island. Suddenly realised his mistake and got left stranded. No sense of camaraderie left in me at this point. Drove on by....

Saw a white E89 on Tuesday coming up the A21 from Tonbridge, with the hood down and a number of very long planks of wood sticking up out of the passenger seat with a least 5 feet of plank sticking up in the air above the driver!
