Brought the car up to the BMW dealership this morning for a fresh set of winter tires. They're Dunlop Winter-Sport M3 measuring 205/55 R16's. These tires won various comparisons and tests including from Autobild, ADAC, Auto Motor und Sport etc.

Here's what the car looks like with them. :

These rims are not comparable to the summer tyres, but nevertheless they don't look bad!! I'm still in love with the colour of your sisters 1-series!!

If only it was an 130i with those hubcaps, it would be the ultimate *Q-Car*!




*Q-Car*
-British term used for unmarked police cars, but also used to denominate high-performance cars that look unassuming; the so-called "Sleeper" .

That's no completely right! My father met another E-Class owner in Hamburg last winter! He inspected our E-Class and when my father came along he asked, if this is our car - my father affirmed this. It appears that the men drove exactly the same E-Class (Obsidianblack, black leather, E 280 CDI with 6 speed manual (!!), sportpackage, same 17' winter tyres, no navigation, no Thermotronic and so on)! Sadly, I didn't was there - It had been a very nice photo shooting with those two black beautiful cars.
