Re: What would you buy?

both my bmw's ( 1999 735 and 2003 760 ) have step-tronic boxes, the 735 you push and pull the gear lever, the 760 has buttons on the steering wheel, on both you keep your foot in the carpet and the gear change is smooth and instant.

Re: why did brad sell all his 800s

sold my 827 a couple of years ago and bought a 1999 BMW 735, so far has been more reliable than the coupe and has the advantage of rear wheel drive drifting :D

Re: ROVER 800 'CLUB' / JRC POLL - ALL HAVE INPUT PLEASE

although not having a rover at this time ( sold my 827 and 600 ) the 800 is a nice car and is disapering from the car scene witch is a shame. :(
