Unless it's an omega, that would raise a few eyebrows.

BMW ;D
Nope......although I 'd like one of the last 3.2 Elite if they have not been destroyed by the dreaded tinworm.

But same country of origin.

Six inline cylinders much like the old Vauxhall Senator. :y

Four driven wheels.

Yes, Rae......it's ripe for a bit of mapping. I have to say I'm surprised how quick it was  even in standard form. The B58 straight six is a good lump.

BMW are a bit conservative when it comes to 0-60 mph figures so it will actually be quicker than that. Most of the road tests with the proper equipment show them to be around 3.85 seconds. This is the type of car that attracts gentlemen in their thirties so should suit Opti down to the ground.  :y
