If he lives in the UK (which is where the picture was taken), it would be ridiculous - I'm 18 with a years NCB and Pass Plus and pay £1,150 for the p-wagon. An Evo would literally be triple that if you could even get a quote.
This is of course if he is 18 - his posts don't suggest it.
He could have trade insurance but i highly doubt that, you sure its allowed to be put back on the road from a scrap yard? lol scrap yard only has parts and cars to be scrapped, salvage yard might have something worthwhile.
Lot of polish racers race in rallycross events in Lithuania with these beasts, or fiat 126's I live 10 km away from rallycross, so i always come to watch these boxes racing.
I did that because, in my opinion, chrome grill looks stupid on black BMW. It looks ok on silver, white, red, etc. because then it, how to say - fit's in overall look. But, on black, dark purple and other dark colors, its better to have black grill, IMO.
i got rid of that chrome shit too,im not a "brother" and anyway nothing else is chrome on it,and it looks like shit when its chrome,this way it blends into the colors fully
yeah.. same here in Latvia - most people here think that 99% BMW drivers are brainless idiots. but.. it's maybe actually true, because when you sit down in your bimmer and start engine, your brains just shut down. when I'm driving with my mother's 1.6l Renault crapbox I don't do many, maybe stupid and dangerous, things like when I'm driving my BMW, like overtaking all the time, sometime going sideways at roundabout's, trying to catch another BMW, etc.
so, the verdict is - don't buy a bimmer, especially with powerfull engine, or your brains will freeze.
