Yes, if the A-pillars are all chrome it’s an Austin-Healey 3000, if they’re part body colour it’s a 100-6.
Camera clipped to the nearside screen post and trade plates make me wonder if they’re shooting a demo video for selling it. |

 Don't see pre FG Falcons anymore usually. But when driving through Pakenham I see heaps of Aussie classics and 80's/90's Japanese cars. Like a trip down memory lane. Nice to see them still around. I'd even buy one if everyone in Pakenham didn't want 80k for their E series XR6.

@HIPO Leanne-2025 water mark?
Anyway, I have seen this BMW twice, the 1st time I really liked it, but didn't have time to snap it. This time I did. Yeah, I know, probably doesn't fit 'this thread' Ezackery, but what the hey.. I think it's a nice thing. I'm Not a bemma fan at all mind you, unless you wanna talk M6 V-10 madness, then I'm interested...   I have more pics from yesterday, but I left my GPS in the truck  Cheers, One Mad Man

Seeing quite a few Val wagon's lately.
Not sure if they've been sitting around in sheds for a while and suddenly people have gotten them back on the road.

Mate had a E30 323 with an exhaust going back over 20 years ago. It sounded so much better than my XR6, however it was alot slower. He talked a big game but was too scared to race, I took it for a drive though and even in first gear I knew it wouldn't stand a chance against the ED.

They sure would out handle the large mighty Falcon that’s for sure.
Yes those beema early inline six’s sounded porn those days wound out through the gears. Felt typically heavy solid euro you felt bullet proof driving them spiritedly. Wish we kept it such a classic now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Growing up in the 50s and 60s you would see Austin Healeys, Triumps, MGs (the proper ones) and other sports cars every day. Now you only see them on the occasional club run. I miss those days.
