what BMW does that come in again, im quite unfamiliar with my German car engine codes.

 

Do I get anything for the lowest miles, 97,000?

 

Damn, beat me by 1,000ish miles. My Regal just hit 98,000 last week.

 

i think i beat you all lol
my car has about 20-21k miles

 

You have a better sense of speed in real life, so I would say it's easier.

 

Weak, my car had at least 1 million kms on the clock and i would have been at 15th or 16th owner, then one day i opened the door and it fell off, thank god i never once actually drove the bleeding thing, the engine would have ripped it apart on the first full throttle application

 

Afaik it came in E24 6 series ,E12 and even E34 5 series.

M30s are a tank of engines, I always loved how torque-y they are and have great sound. Nothing beats an m50 though

 

E3 sedans (Bavaria, 2500, 2800, 3.0s, etc)
E9 Coupes (2800cs, etc.)
E12 5
E28 5
E34 5
E24 6
E30 3 (SA market m333i)
E23 7
E32 7

Basically any non-M BMW made before 1993 with an engine size over 2.5l.

 

My first (the green one) and second official cars, I have had a Mini Cooper at age 13 before, and also a Opel Manta and a Alfasud at age 17
By the time of these pictures the new owner of my 315 had already put seat covers and floor mats into it but of course it was a full beige interior

 

Not quite, I lied, I checked it this morning and it’s actually at 98,013

 

Still beat me by a little more than 100 miles.

 

eh, my saab hasn't rolled over 70,000 yet lmao

Didnt know this thread existed lol but here are some edits i do when im bored

I have sooo much more but im not bothered to post them all so i just sent recent ones (i know some are abit much lol)

 

It's my birthday today!

 

I'm renewing my heavy vehicles permit, a coarse that spans several days. The last decade the regulations in my country (and the rest of Europe) have gotten quite strict. I own every letter of the EU drivers license except for the letter 'D' for buses. If I would get that one too it means I could immediately hook it up with a trailer. Today during course a professional coach/touring car (travel buses) driver explained that it is quite, actually really difficult to parallel park a short trailer (like bus trailers) with a long bus. I immediately thought I should try this out, in BeamNG of course It seems the man was more then right. A good first attempt (below) but I gave myself a lot of room. If I would move the trucks a little closer together things might get pretty exhaustive

 

I can imagine how horrible it is to reverse a small trailer with bus. It was difficult enough reversing a small-ish mid-axle trailer with a small-ish offroad truck in the tests.

 

Oh you mean the mid axle being like a dolly ? When I did my initial course we were obliged to manoeuvre every possible combo during the final test (back in early 2001). One of the 'obstacles' was backing it up 50 meters with the wheels closer then a few cm's from a white line on the tarmac. I was kind of lucky due to the fact that heavy transport 'came with my genes' (for several generations) nevertheless surprisingly my other team mates all succeeded as well without ever having driven those 'loose' axles before ! Nice chaps they were

 

Not a dolly, this one, like in the pic above. Didn't get to drive an E licence, but you do the tests with a trailer like this so you'll get a C1E. And also so that you can tow an artillery gun. (in the army the max weight you can tow without E is 3500kg instead of the 750kg)
