Matthew Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Thanks to the admin team for seeing the benefit for other owners of these cars and putting so much effort into trying to recover the old and eventually setting up a brand new home for us. Hopefully the same attitude for sharing and learning will prevail again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Where's the pics of your car then Matthew? Same rules apply on this new forum as the old one. "Pics or you're fibbing!" 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Posted August 16, 2022 Author Share Posted August 16, 2022 (edited) At Poligny in France on the way to the Alps skiing in March 2022. The car does love the Alps as a great intercontinental cruiser. Edited August 17, 2022 by Matthew 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calypso-E34 Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 That M5 is outstanding! Makes me want a fast car again! 50+ mpg is nice, but not as nice as that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 You can get 40+mpg out of your N55. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd never achieve that with the sort of driving I do - plus, I'd want to exploit that nice petrol six! With my b47 engined car, driving it hard brings no aural joy at all, as it sounds shite - so it's no chore to keep the revs down! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Ah sorry @Calypso-E34, I thought I was replying to @Caesar! I should have gone to Barnard Castle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmwmike Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Hi All congrats on getting the site back up and running!!! I was fairly regular on the old forum. Still got my f10. Glad to see this place back. One little tiny bit of feedback, can the security questions and answers be ditched for a simple password reset link? No way would i give a forum real security Q&A and it seems to be asking a question on every login. Whats wrong with just setting a password and then if you forget, email a reset link?

Welcome back Mike! it should only ask you for 2FA the first time you log in on a new device. Having 2FA helps keep the spammers out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sort of agree with this especially as the available questions turn up on all sorts of sites and some of them are important enough not to want the answers to be known. I don't know how well encrypted the answers are on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtechnoman Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 (edited) Nice to see this forum back where it belongs,tried using it on facebook but could not get the hang of it. I was on the forum for a good few years and reconize quite a few members from before. i can not remember my old forum user names but i think i used (technoman ot timwil) but as there was not many 530D F07 a few members might remember me. just to say i have tried to load picture on profile link but it keeps on coming up upside down, am i doing somthing wrong. as to logging back into this forum i nealy gave up the will to live! as a bit of old person i find Qcodes and Google store a bit of a dark art.

Andrew Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Hi @oldtechnoman good to see you back. Ive seen a few posters have the same issue as you with pics appearing upside down. I’ll investigate. How have you posted the picture? Did you upload to the forum or use an external picture hosting site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
