Mine was rescued from a 10 year storage and stunk of mice urine. After doing enough repairs to get it marginally roadworthy, I did a late night run around the neighborhood and announced it was a POS. To be polite, it was called Scoot-n-turd while the mechanical & cosmetic repair continued. Today its fairly well sorted and has lost its stench. It is now referred to as Scooter and it seems befitting.

the previous owner of mine called her "trudy" which is an ok name, but when i spent 5 weeks replacing the transmission/clutch last summer, in hours of contorted conversation she told me her REAL name: charmaigne

its regal, alliterative (she's a chamonix), and it still cracks me up.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains.

Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
