BMWi8

Who says an i8 isn’t practical ? Full weeks shop - easy!!

Can get more than that in a Smart Roadster (seriously!)

That bonnet / boot shut line looks filthy. Don’t know how you sleep at night...

(Looking at your posting times you don’t...)

That was taken care of 2 hours ago Russell, you are right it was minging!! And you’re equally right on the sleeping thing.. overrated !

Really good article Steve, thanks for the link
I do think it’s demise is premature but from a purely selfish standpoint happy it will now remain somewhat rare as a consequence

Just one thing missing from the article. You can get more than a pint of milk in it when going shopping sure I have seen photographic evidence somewhere

As Peugeot used to say in their 80s 205GTi advertising "If you want something sensible buy an anorak".

That looks practical to me, my practicality is based on any vehicles ability to carry booze. BTW, didn't realise they were a four seater?
