Customer Reviews
BMW Classic fanatics rejoice!
I have just started this podcast and I’m absolutely loving what I am hearing thus far. I love hearing about classic BMW owners who have as much passion about them as I do. I drive a E36 318i that I use as a racecar (yes, a racecar) and consider it a unique build, and I love hearing all of these different stories from different types of enthusiasts from all over the world. Keep it up!
