BACK FROM THE EU! (56k could be little slow) - United Bimmer Community

Hey everyone, I havent been on here in a LOOOONG time, but I'm back from EU now, I was there for a couple months, and I thought Id share a few of my bwm/car-related shots.. I have over 10000 pictures that I took on the trip, and a lot of the ones of the cars are all last min (I shot mostly on manual mode on digital SLR), so excuse the exposure/framing on some of them!

Stuff I got to do: Study Architecture for most of the time, take LOTS of pictures, see a lot of famous places, nice cars, bridge jumping, snowboarding (austria in the summer

), mtn biking, hiking, some climbing, swimming

, ZE AUTOBAHN

, tickets, yummy food, scootering around Rome and outskirts(being passed by Ducatis left and right), and seeing the new M5 pulling a trailer

BTW sorry to say this but BMW's are dime-a-dozen in europe. So you wont feel so special over there!

And their rice cars over there all look nice and clean. They have such strict emissions that you wont see any pieces rolling around unpainted with cans!

haha anyhow, heres a couple pics: (CAPTIONS ABOVE PICS)

Ah yes, ZE AUTOBAHN early in the morning

Need I say anything? Actually yes I do. I saw more Ferraris Lambos and Aston Martins than the new M5's. Hard to find them even over there.

Racing in our little Opel Astra rental - haha look at the tach

The Z1. YEP. never seen one before and will probably never see one again

Nice looking

Looks nice even underexposed

Constant passing by these effers!

THAT BIGASS TRAILER YOU SEE is being pulled by the NEW M5!! We passed it then slowed down hoping it would catch up but it took the exit... loser

In the alps, expect anything!

haha nice pics, must have been very interesting, hows your bike btw?

You mean the CBR? I sold it earlier this year. I was really considering getting another one but the BMW power is too strong. I think Im gonna spend that money on a newer nicer faster car.. More practical anyway plus i guess i can always get another bike later on. Gotta have the BMW though!

looks like you had an awesome time! I know that in my homeland, Britain, all kinds of vehicles pull trailers.
