E89s. Common as muck.

Post by Pondrew » Sat Nov 13, 2021 9:45 pm

In the last week I have seen four E89s drive past the front of my house. I don't sit looking out the window, so they must be now quite common in the beautiful part of the world in which I find myself residing. :) Bearing in mind that an E89 should be tucked up in the garage by now for it's long Winter hibernation. :poke:
In the past 2 years I've seen none, then four in a week. Maybe it's because the used values are so low! :P
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

I think you've got that the wrong way round.

Ive noticed quite a few around where i live, including a neighbour across the street.

Mine never hibernates, and the roof is down as long as its not raining (snow is also not a barrier to roofless freedom :rofl: )

They've probably always been going by, but it's only now you've licked the window clean that you can see them :poke:
