BMW E30 323i Spec Comparison to contemporary early-80s rivals...

How does the E30 stack up next to its five most common early 1980s stablemates, the MG Montego Turbo, Peugeot 505 GTi, Renault 25 GTX, Saab 900 Turbo and Subaru RX Turbo?

Great review from MOTOR Magazine, November 1985.

BMW 507 stunning replica... based on an MG MGA!

Saw this amazing BMW 507 replica on the Reddit /BMW sub. It is based on a 1955-onwards MG MGA Roadster and is pretty convincing to the untrained eye. However, as I own a 1959 MGA MK1 1500, I can see that those front wings and that bonnet shape are unmistakable. Still, with the price of 507s now topping the million mark and your average MGA not commanding even a fraction of that, I can see why this piece of classic British sports-car sacrilege is acceptable! Funny though, that someone has combined one of my toys with one of my Dad's toys...
