Golden orange, and you forget just how good they taste (to drive) lol

After almost forgetting about my 5, getting a bike and debating whether to sell it and get an m3, finally forced myself to get it out the garage and blow the cobwebs out

Smiles all round! Completely forgot what it was like, and now the gixxer is staying locked up for a bit whilst I invest my monies in shell :-)

It's always the same, you put them away, almost always forget how much fun they are!

I haven't driven mine since September last year, I know when I do, a serious dose of Cheshire cat will be coming my way!!

It's the only car you will really regret selling. I did it and had to have another one as soon as i had been in a 5 a year later.
