Nope. These are non runflats. Michelin Pilot sport 4S
I agree runflats are truly terrible tyres. It’s like riding on wooden cart wheels.

£170 off Amazon,thought this plasma cutter was going to be junk,but it whipped this old bucket blade off in a couple of minutes.
Had to upgrade the fuse in the 13amp plug though........
To a nail
I recently got the same machine, but the one with the built in air compressor. Very nifty bit of kit, the poor 9" angle grinder can have a bit of time off now.

Has that got BMW’s famous optional indicators fitted? Nobody seems to choose them around here!

I'd like the Supra, only Bmw that you'd be able to see in my driveway.

335d is a great car. I love the touring as well. However my wife on the other hand really doesn’t, she things touring = old man car. I just can’t convince her otherwise.
One of my good mates had a saloon 335d which was remapped to around 400hp and it could really move!

Yeah it’s the B58 engine. Same as the Z4 however I assume the Z4 will have the new opf filters in the exhaust so it’ll sound good but a bit more muted and won’t burble was much. That’s why I wanted this white one on an 18 plate as all 68 plate M140i’s onwards had the filters.
The Z4 is actually a really nice car.

In my opinion the Supra is bloody ugly.I'd like the Supra, only Bmw that you'd be able to see in my driveway.
Would have loved to see a Z4 coupe, but it won’t be happening,

It's decent looking, but the old MkIV is the best. Toyota has tuned the software somewhat and the Supra MkV performs better than Toyota claims. Bmw just isn't what it used to be and atleast here costs like hell (in all honesty everything that is performance oriented but isn't hybrid or Ev costs a sh!t ton).

Appearance and looks are an individual thing, I’ve just looked on auto trader at pics, ugly might be over the top, probably an age thing as at 63 I think the Z4 a bit more subtle,

Wow!! Is there some sort of crazy tax on used cars or something? Prices are high over here at the moment this was £27k with 17k miles. An added bonus of this one was it already had motech springs fitted sorting out the way too high stock height. It just needs more noise now.

No, just a regular car with "big" engine has crazy car tax due to emissions. Ev's are relieved of that tax fully (and i'm not sure if Hybrids are too, but the tax on big hybrids is only few grands if it's still there). And we have 24% of vat on top of all that. Top spec diesel Skoda Kodiaq costs 62k€ and 17k€ of that is car tax.
A-series Mercedes with no extras costs around 30k€.

Excellent. Big taxes on totally unnecessary cars suit me just fine. 24% VAT, again, no issue with that.
Thats sounds nice. Here a m340i cost from £95.000 (€112k)
The startingprice for an merc a-series (the cheapest on the list) is €49.000
