    BMW M1 for auction 13 April 2019

    Found in an East London garage after being "lost" for a quarter of a century.

    Here's an odd M1 I took a photo of at Chantilly Arts & Elégance a couple of years ago.

    Simon that’s lovely but not a standard car that’s one known as a Braque turbo prototype I think after it’s designer, very rare beast

    Watched a bit about these on the coverage from Goodwood at the weekend. Well at the sport version built for the one make race series.

    That's a great car with good history, will be interesting to see what it sells for at the weekend.

    That petrolicious article linked to above is a good read too, thanks for that.
