Look at this lovely E12 I ran into yesterday.

You don’t see too many of these just parked at the bank any more. This one looks to be in terrific shape and it’s got the proper transmission, so clearly someone who gets it owns it.

ERMAGERD!! A Euro import too, we never got the tax-special 520. We have a pretty well kept red E12 in now on Alpina wheels. Love me some old 5 series.

If it’s an import why would it have side marker lights at each corner?

I can’t handle this much neat

Jonee > RallyWrench 07/26/2016 at 18:00

I was wondering if it was an import. So, we just got the 528 and 530? It’s a really sharp design, the E12.

Jonee > Cé hé sin 07/26/2016 at 18:01

Perhaps the grey market importer added them to be compliant.

RallyWrench > Cé hé sin 07/26/2016 at 18:35

They were mandatory for Federalization, unfortunately.

facw > Cé hé sin 07/26/2016 at 18:37

Imported prior to the 25 year rule, so needed those to be compliant. with the regulations at the time.

RallyWrench > Jonee 07/26/2016 at 18:40

0

Yep, just the 528 and 530. The rest of the world got these 4 cylinder cars as a base. The E12 is a great design, for sure.

I love that color green on old BMWs! I forgot the actual paint code... I just call it Kermit green.

Jobjoris > RallyWrench 07/27/2016 at 16:40

Didn’t we have a 520/6 as well over here?

Jobjoris > Jonee 07/27/2016 at 16:41

1

Was it the M10 or M20? That color is wicked!

RallyWrench > Jobjoris 07/27/2016 at 16:53

0

That I don’t know. I know you had a carbureted 320/6 below the 323i, but I’m not sure if that engine ever made it to the 5.

Jonee > Jobjoris 07/28/2016 at 01:18

1

The green is so sweet. It looked amazing. Caught my eye from far away. I don’t know which motor it had. The owner wasn’t around. All I saw is what you see. It’s a funny car to import, but I’m completely in favor of it.

Jobjoris > Jonee 07/28/2016 at 14:06

1

Why is it funny to import? This way you don’t get those fugly US bumpers!

Jonee > Jobjoris 07/29/2016 at 00:51

1

Because it’s the 4-cylinder. Usually, you’d import the more powerful car. Otherwise, you can just import the bumpers and save on shipping.

Jobjoris > Jonee 07/31/2016 at 06:50

1

Why on earth would you import a 4-banger? We even had a 518 over here hahaha.

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/02/2016 at 00:28

1

Exactly. At least he went for the 520. There can’t be too many of them over here. He might have the only one. I wonder if it has a/c. I remember on the early 528 and 530's, the air conditioning was supposed to be terrible.

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/02/2016 at 04:23

1

If he got it from Euroland there’s probably no A/C in it anyway. That took us years to discover. Early ‘90's.

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/02/2016 at 23:14

1

I remember that. How come? Didn't you like being comfortable in the summer, or were your summers just not hot enough before global warming?

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/03/2016 at 05:39

1

We’re just a bunch of cheapskates. All over Europe because it wasn’t just the Dutch discovering A/C in the ‘90's.

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/04/2016 at 02:24

1

I guess it really did take that long after the war for folks to start being comfortable with luxuries over there. When I spent that summer in England in 1988, I stayed with a family that, while not upper class, were making out fine and their cars were the cheapest pieces of shit. They did have a nice t.v., though.

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/04/2016 at 09:51

1

The TV is sacred. I know people buying a new set every 2 years for either the World or European championship Football, doesn’t surprise me. The British are extra funny with cars as they like the idea they get a local car, the only reason the English Automotive sector survived as long as it did in the first place. So they’d prefer a cheapskate Austin Metro over a far superior and more complete Honda Jazz.

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/04/2016 at 23:55

1

People here practically build houses around the television. Mine is like 10 years old now. Works like a charm except when it decides to only play sound and I have to unplug it and plug it back in again for the picture to come back. The English were so automotively patriotic. Although these people had an early VW Rabbit 4-door with only one working door, and a beat-up early 80's Cortina. Which I guess was British. Their neighbors had a great yellow 2CV. That was how I fell in love with those things. I also remember visiting a Reliant dealership which was awesome.

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/05/2016 at 04:46

1

10 years old? Is that even a flat screen??? Hahaha. The last time I bought a tv was 5 years ago. I had to replace the one that was stolen.

What Reliant were in that dealership? They haven’t made cars for like what, 20 years?

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/06/2016 at 03:08

1

It’s a flat screen, yes. It’s not as thin as they make them now, but it has a nice picture. Was it stolen with the Mercedes, or was there another break in?

I guess it was one of the last Robins. This was 1988. They may have stopped production as late as 2000. I think someone bought the company at one point and kept building them.

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/06/2016 at 07:09

1

It is Full HD? Mine was stolen in the second break in. During our stay in Paris.

I always thought the Scimitar SS1 outlived the Robin, that one was made during the ‘90's. With a Nissan 1.8 engine!

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/08/2016 at 03:01

1

Yeah, real full HD. Did you tell me about that one? What else did they get?

Reliant built the Robin until 2001, believe it or not. And then a plastics company bought the rights, but they only lasted one year. So, 2002. Incredible. The Scimitar was cool in the 70's. Torch has one. It's funny it ended with a Dastun motor.

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/08/2016 at 03:50

1

Just some electronics. An XBox, an e-reader, a laptop. I’m sure I’ve mentioned it before, I’m always amazed people getting through all this hassle/risk just for a what, 200 euros on the black market? Well, maybe there’s hardly any risk actually. But still.

2002???? Hahaha. People were still buying these???? Those British are truly amazing. That ‘70's Scimitar was epic.

Funny to always hear Mazda revived the English roadster while the Scimitar SS1 was still being made. It’s more like Mazda made the English roadster a good business case ;-)

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/09/2016 at 01:03

1

Yeah, it hardly does seem worth the effort and risk. How do they know someone’s not looking after the house? I guess they stake it out pretty good.

They didn’t sell many in 2002. That plastics company only built 70. I can’t imagine them selling in the 90's, but the English are weird. It was a fine British product, I guess.

Mazda made the Japanese roadster a good business case. Like Datsun before them.

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/09/2016 at 04:00

1

With my vast amount of recognizable cars on the driveway it’s obvious at least someone isn’t home ;-) Some stakin’ out/monitoring had be done. At least, that’s what the police claimed.

The Datsun 2000 Roadster never sold that good over here, can’t imagine that having been a good business case for Europe.

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/10/2016 at 02:20

1

Yeah, it was probably pretty obvious you were on vacation. That’s how they got me.

I was thinking of the Z which pretty much killed the British sports car industry. It's not a roadster, but it made the case for little sports cars that were actually reliable.

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/10/2016 at 04:32

1

Ah, the Z... That one wasn’t that huge over here either, I think I’ve seen more Stags than Z’s in my life for example. Johan Cruijff did drive a Z. And later an SM. El Salvador...

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/10/2016 at 22:44

1

That’s interesting. They sold tons of Z’s over here. My sister had one. And, she traded her MG for it. America was always the biggest market for the British sports cars, so once we went Japanese, they were finished. Cruijff had great taste. What a legend. You’d think he would have had the French car first.

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/11/2016 at 05:13

1

Yeah, the US definitely made way for the Z. Wasn’t your sis’s Z way, WAY faster than her B (I presume it was a B, or was it a Midget?)?

Cruijff was a legend. We have a “trope” around here, “Cruijffiaanse uitspraak”, or “Quote from Cruijff” for which you say something that totally makes no sense at first. But when you start really thinking...

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/11/2016 at 23:20

1

It was a Midget. Purple. The Z must have been much quicker, yeah. She loved that car.

That's funny. Was that how he spoke? Cryptically? Even when he coached?

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/12/2016 at 03:23

1

That was like getting from a Formula Vee to a Formula 1 car!!!

Yeah, in typical Amsterdam dialect. “Elk nadeel heb z’n voordeel” (Every disadvantage has its advantage) is probably one of his most renowned quotes. But there’s so many, according to Cruijff the world was so incredibly simple. I loved this one as well:

Someone who has juggled the ball in the air during a game, after which four defenders of the opponent get the time to run back, that’s the player people think is great. I say he has to go to a circus.

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/14/2016 at 00:13

1

That’s funny. There was a famous baseball player for the Yankees named Yogi Berra who was known for his similar type of misspeaking. He would say things like, “It ain’t over ‘til it’s over.” And, “If you don’t go to their funeral, they won’t come to yours.” One of my favorites is, “no one goes there any more. It’s too crowded.”

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/14/2016 at 05:58

1

Yogi Berra! Is that where Hanna-Barbera got the name for that bear from? Cool to know who influenced Lenny Kravitz to come up with his epic music. Nice quotes. What about Cruijff’s

Italianen kennen niet van je winnen, maar je ken wel van ze verliezen.

Or rather: “Italians can’t win from you but you can lose from them”. Epic.

There’s just so many. This one always puts a smile on my face as well:

Ik heb nog nooit een zak geld een goal zien maken.

Which means: “I’ve never seen a bag of cash score any goal.” It’s about all that money going on in soccer nowadays.

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/15/2016 at 23:45

1

That is where they got the name. Although, they claimed it was a coincidence when he sued, but it obviously was from him.

Those are good. He’s right. At least about the gold. Yogi’s weren’t always sports specific. Another great one is, “half the lies they say about me aren’t true.”

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/16/2016 at 03:52

1

Haha, there actually was a legal fight over this? Awesome.

Of course some writer took Cruijff’s quotes to come up with some self help management book. Cruijff always was quite fond on himself. What about:

Voordat ik een fout maak, maak ik die fout niet.

Or... “Before I make a mistake, I won’t make that mistake”. ??????

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/17/2016 at 01:01

1

He dropped the suit after a while and accepted it, but yeah, he sued them over the name. He wasn’t really the smartest bear. Boo Boo did all the dirty work. So, I guess Yogi was offended.

Haha. That’s a good one. I’ll remember that next time I’m about to do something stupid.

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/17/2016 at 04:51

0

Haha, not the smartest bear. I guess he was smart. Just lazy. And he found a way for Boo Boo to solve everything. Smart. Efficient at least!

How’s the Dutch language going for you? Are you reading the Micro Car book a bit?

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/18/2016 at 02:14

1

This is true. He was clever enough to get all those picnic baskets without getting caught by the ranger. I still say Boo Boo was the brains of the outfit. Or, the conscience, at least. He also had that snazzy bow-tie.

I have translated a couple articles in the book. I’m getting to know some car terms. Bladveren . Draaicirkil .

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/18/2016 at 04:17

1

Whatever happened to the snazzy bow-tie??? We need to re-introduce that, would look excellent while driving a Wanke r l!

Haha, bladveren ! It is DraaicirkEl though ;-) Pronounced as a “u” in Cupcakes . With a slightly more round mouth when said.

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/19/2016 at 02:07

1

People do try to bring the bow tie back, but it’s hard to pull off. It is perfect for the Wankerl customer. I like the idea of a dress code for our customers. We don’t want any slobs driving our cars. It would totally spoil our image.

Ah, pronunciation is my one issue since I’m just reading it. How do you pronounce the “ draai-” part?

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/19/2016 at 03:34

1

Maybe we should bring the beret back in as well. My curls wouldn’t approve of this but I always loved the beret!

Draai... “Dr” like the opening from “Dremel” but with a somewhat “rolling” “R”. A double “aa” is a hard “a” and ending it with a “i” means you finish it with the sound you make when starting “you” (so leave out the “ou”). So a bit like “I” but with a flatter, more circled mouth.

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/19/2016 at 17:36

1

I’m all for the beret. I don’t think I could really pull one off, either, but I’d try. I have a close friend who always keeps a beret in his car just in case. He also directs commercials and music videos and wears a beret when he’s on the job like some old cartoon version of a director.

I cannot follow your description. It sounds like a million things going on all at once. I use this website and I’m not sure if the pronunciation is the same as what you’re saying.

http://forvo.com/word/draaicirk…

Are you watching the game? Another shootout is about to start. Exciting.

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/19/2016 at 17:48

1

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! You probably can guess what this is about, not about that beret... Awesome story though.

And our girls definitely look better ;-)

It is the same. She does have a pause between the “d” and the “r” which is a bit odd. This way you’ll learn Dutch in a heartbeat!

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/19/2016 at 17:54

1

Yeah, that was a shame. I thought that last Dutch shot was going in. Tough year for you guys in field hockey, but silver isn’t bad and it keeps your medal streak going. They were saying something like 10 consecutive Olympics you guys have gotten a field hockey medal, which sounds crazy.

They are much better looking young women, yes. A lot of blondes.

By the time I arrive, I’ll be fluent, but I may the same weird accent as that lady.

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/20/2016 at 05:05

1

Pepe’s mum will be furious, she’s there right now. Silver ain’t bad but they definitely played better, just the defense... It’s not 10, but 6. In 1992 we failed and only got a 6th place, nowadays it’s just the numbers 1 to 4 that’s actually acknowledged.

And they’re still the reigning world champions...

Maybe add some southern/Belgian ring to it!

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/22/2016 at 01:29

1

They played a great game it seemed like. When it comes down to penalties, it’s basically a toss-up. They got 1 less break than the other team.

And the best looking team. Nothing to be ashamed about in that department.

I don’t know enough Belgians. Do they speak Dutch with a funny accent?

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/22/2016 at 03:56

1

And the Brits knew a bit how we did the shoot-outs lately as we’ve done ‘m already during the games.

There’s a new hype in the Dutch sportsworld: the team doctor from a tiny soccer club, Go Ahead Eagles . Every one gets excited when someone gets hurt. I don’t really get it but the fact it’s in a stadium filled with testosterone...

YES! WEIRD! FUNNY! AND THEY ONLY GOT 6 OLYMPIC MEDALS!!!!

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/22/2016 at 22:46

1

The Go Ahead Eagles is a great name for a team. We just have the plain old regular Eagles here. She is a good looking woman, but yeah, not exceptionally so.

Crazy Belgium. Is there nothing they can get right?

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/23/2016 at 03:46

1

The Eagles have landed. They really play in the lower regions of the competition.

Hahaha. They make great radio! Studio Brussels is my favorite station. The way they tell about those medals is like they are champions of the world in everything! So many excuses, most heard was “yeah he/she did finish 8th (so not 4th!!!) but as he/she is ONLY 25 there will be more to come. Like when, when they’re 29?????? I love Belgium.

Naomi van As got 3 medals for hockey, so she’s been playing national theme for over 12 years. It can be done.

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/23/2016 at 23:00

1

What kind of music does Studio Brussels play? I guess when you live in Belgium, you have to put a positive spin on anything you can.

It depends on how early you start. Some of these swimmers and gymnasts we have have been around for years it seems like. And, the gold medal winner in the equestrian show jumping was 58!

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/24/2016 at 03:48

1

It’s a bit alternative rock. I hear my good new music there first. They use a lot of beer to make things possitive as well.

Wasn’t there a sailing medal for a 50+ year old as well?

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/25/2016 at 14:53

1

I don’t listen to the radio much any more. I mostly discover new music on the interwebs these days, but we have a good college radio station in town that plays interesting stuff. That’s always been the best source for alternative music in America. Do you have college radio over there?

There may have been. I didn’t get to see much sailing this year. It always looks like mayhem to me. I can’t tell what the heck those boats are doing. I did see a Dutch sailor win apparently once, though. Even though it looked to me like there were boats in front of him, and people were going in every direction.

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/26/2016 at 05:32

1

Well, I’m in the car every day for an hour at least so an excellent opportunity to catch up with the news and new music! We don’t know the phenomenon College Radio . We do know Ether-piraten !

54 years old . But gold instead of the silver! I never watch sailing on tv. The stress, effort and epicness of the sport is just visible on board. Not from a distance, that’s horrible to see. Just the start is nice to watch.

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/28/2016 at 21:44

1

I had a radio show in college once. From midnight to 2am. It was great. I played whatever I wanted. Are there still pirate radio stations?

The sailing looks pretty strenuous, so 54 years old is impressive. They should have Go Pros on the boats during the t.v. coverage. That wouldn't make it easier to understand, but it would at least be exciting.

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/29/2016 at 03:51

1

There still are. Often playing the music of Corry Konings and alike! All you played was Devo right?

I can’t find our more hectic footage but this is what we shot with some GoPros a few years ago.

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/30/2016 at 00:22

1

A lot of Devo and anything bizarre I could find. I had some fans which put a lot of pressure to find weirder and weirder records. That wasn’t easy in those days.

Yeah, see, that’s a lot more interesting than watching a bunch of boats floating around randomly from a distance.

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/30/2016 at 04:15

1

Did you play some SMiLe stuff from Brian Wilson?

Well, that’s just us amateurs. Now go see how the Pros handle themselves on sea:

Jonee > Jobjoris 08/31/2016 at 02:17

1

I wasn’t into the Beach Boys, yet, back then. But, I love Smile now. I got to see Brian perform it out here a few years ago. And I got to meet the lead singer of Sparks during the intermission. Best night of my life.

Wow, that’s intense. I like that they keep a sewing machine on board. I guess you just never stay dry on a trip like that.

Jobjoris > Jonee 08/31/2016 at 06:20

1

Well, SMiLe wasn’t your typical BB album, was it? That was always a bit obscure...

It’s a necessity, that sewing machine. Those sails will be shot at one point, especially those spinakers.

Jonee > Jobjoris 09/02/2016 at 00:10

1

Well, it was never released until a couple years ago. It was to be their Sgt. Pepper’s , but then the Beatles released their Sgt. Pepper’s and Brian Wilson had a nervous breakdown. But, a bunch of the songs turned up on later albums, so you could kind of piece together what the album was going to be like. It was a lot different from their early “ Help Me Rhonda ” days. Surf’s Up has always been my favorite song.

I imagine those sails do get beat in that weather. Pretty amazing.

Jobjoris > Jonee 09/02/2016 at 04:08

1

That definitely was somewhat experimental, love Surf’s up . Never was sure what it is all about though. Sgt Peppers is great.

It’s not just the wind: mast, rigging, other boats while hiking, it’s MAN AGAINST THE ELEMENTS!

Jonee > Jobjoris 09/03/2016 at 20:56

1

I don’t know what the words are about, either, but it sounds very poetic. “Dove nested towers the hour was Strike the street quicksilver moon.” That doesn’t mean anything, but it sounds real pretty. He wrote a lot of lyrics with this guy Van Dyke Parks who was a nutty hippie from those days. There’s another song where he says, “Cotillions squared to fight,” but a cotillion is like a school dance, so I imagine all these kids in fancy clothes having a rumble.

The wind giveth and the wind taketh away. Did you do any sailing this year?

Jobjoris > Jonee 09/04/2016 at 05:17

1

I only like my cotillions if they’re armed. Preferably with rocket propelled grenades.

No race or regatta this year, just one leisure trip to clear the mind...

Jonee > Jobjoris 09/05/2016 at 01:55

1

Armed cotillions would certainly solve a lot of our overcrowded classroom problems. Actually, we’re probably on our way to arming teachers over here, so why not the students?

Whose boat do you go out on?

Jobjoris > Jonee 09/05/2016 at 04:53

1

Really, armed teachers? That could have gotten ugly in my younger years ;-)

A friend-of-a-friend’s yacht in Sint Annaland, I think it was a Hanse . 36 foot or something. It’s about time I’d go out more ;-)

Jonee > Jobjoris 09/06/2016 at 15:23

1

Yeah, I think Texas wanted to pass a law allowing teachers to carry guns. I think half my grade school class would have been blown away if they had that when I was a kid. We were scoundrels. It reminds me of this poster for this great old, b-movie that I have hanging on my wall.

You should get out on the water more. That sounds like a lovely boat. My brother had a sailboat when he lived in Panama and it was a beautiful thing to go out on.

Jobjoris > Jonee 09/07/2016 at 06:01

1

CLASS OF 1984!!! My nextdoor neighbor had that as a Betamax in the house but we were never allowed to see it back then. Had a different cover though.

Still haven’t watched it actually.

I need more time. The new Sales is taking up all my spare time at the moment!

Jonee > Jobjoris 09/08/2016 at 00:24

1

It’s a great movie. Really over the top and very entertaining. It features a young Michael J. Fox before he was Alex P. Keaton.

Well, at least business is good. I guess we’re not going to get to see Wimille’s car this year.

Jobjoris > Jonee 09/08/2016 at 03:37

1

NO DAMNED! THAT THIS WEEK! Next year, I’ll keep in touch with the guy. IT WILL BE DONE!

Jonee > Jobjoris 09/08/2016 at 23:38

1

IT BETTER! I have to see that car. My mother’s going to be so disappointed. Maybe by next year she’ll have the 911, though.

Jobjoris > Jonee 09/09/2016 at 04:28

1

No worries, it will happen. Just tell your mum that if she already had bought that 911 I would have gotten over there for sure. How much time upfront do you need me to tell you I’m heading over to the east-coast?

Nextdoor Neighbor Jan asked me to help him get a low mileage 911 from Germany. And I found out nextdoor Neighbor Maurice has a... TVR Tuscan! And Franz (the Ferrari-neighbor) had a cousin over with his Peugeot 203 yesterday. Who was wondering how on earth I knew what it was being “that young” hahaha. I really live in Classic Car heaven...

Jonee > Jobjoris 09/11/2016 at 21:28

1

A couple weeks. I can get there pretty quickly. If you were going to be there tomorrow, that might be hard.

Holy cow, yeah. That’s a great neighborhood. You should organize your own car show. You’ll have to find a way to get behind the wheel of that Tuscan. Does it have that crazy paint? I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a 203 in person. That’s pretty cool. I guess he had no idea about your French car fetish.

Jobjoris > Jonee 09/12/2016 at 04:41

1

I’ll keep that in mind. My pal Simon insisted we’d go to the Oktoberfest but even that will be hard...

This was at lunch last Saturday. Do notice that sticker on the TVR above the license plate.

It’s a bit of that pearlescent paint if you mean that. Not sure if he’ll let me behind the wheel though.

Jonee > Jobjoris 09/13/2016 at 00:35

1

Oktoberfest in Germany? I bet that’s a good time.

I can’t read the sticker. What does it say? “Look, but don’t touch?”

This crazy paint.

Best party I ever attended. But my free-time is scarce right now (and I’d prefer to go see that Type 57!) so that’s questionable.

“Because Porsches are for Girls”. Hahaha, he has had it for 4 years now. He’s had his 3rd cylinderhead-revision two months ago. It is a great car, not that wicked color.

Those Germans know how to have a good time. I’d like to do that one time. I like Germany.

Ha. That is funny. My mother wouldn’t like that. But, she wouldn’t like a TVR, either. Not with that reliability. How many miles does the head last?

Last couple of years all kinds of “Oktoberfeste” are organized all over the places. For a reason.

It was even more funny when I told him what 12 years of Porsche ownership had actually cost me (next to the regular maintenance): one krukaskeerring and an issue with the alarm. Which was aftermarket anyway.

Can’t last many miles though he opted for some more “laid-back” head this time to prevent having to get another one so he probably lost some hp. I see/hear him drive it once every week so it’s decently used.

Porsches are pretty amazing that way. I saw an old 912 that looked totally unrestored puttering around the other day. It was a beautiful thing.

I bet it’s worth losing those horses. It’s a stunning car. Nice that he’s uses it.
