the 750i is perhaps the nicest interior and ride quality ive been in - its nicer to be in than a roller Phantom, Maybach or any other limos. sure it doesnt look the best, but who cares - these cars arent meant for you to drive, ur meant to be driven in them. and yes i agree it looks better than the old one.

that's a BIG improvement on the previous 7-series rear with it's 'taxi advertising space' bootlid

i'll still never buy one though...o.k- maybe in about 20 years at auction when it's worth $1700

But that's just it. If your reason for buying the car is for how it feels when you're behind the wheel carving up your favourite road, then who cares if it looks like a smashed crab?

However, if the point is that you want a car to make an entrance as a status symbol, then the car should look good.

Its one reason why I much prefer the Rolls Royce Phantom to the Maybach. The former looks like a Roller, and has presence and heritage. The latter looks like the cross-eyed designer from Morgan designed the front end of an S Class.

Ignoring the cost of petrol needed to run a 2 ton V8/V12 in 20 years, the cost of servicing this car with all its electronic gizmos is going to make servicing it more expensive than buying it :D

      WTB R34 GTR Guard Liners

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up

      You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
