If you could somehow photoshop the picture to have the two cars swapped around the thread header would make so much sence :thinker:

:bs: There is no way a car with less horsepower can pull a car with more horsepower...its against the laws of nature

This M3 is so highly modified that it needs a rolling start of 80km/h before it can run - much like a glider :bs:

you guys are missing the plot here... the golf came upto the bmw and tuned him, I bet my car could pull yours easy ...
and the bmw driver laughed .. and said, I bet you couldn't ... as the guy whispered to his wife .. just as well, we just ran out of a petrol..

On closer inspection, the golf is clearly not bearing any load at the back, which leads me to believe that the M3 is infact pulling the golf out of a ditch or something :)

I agree with Freerider. I think the BMW is pulling the Golf out of a ditch.

By the way, my Golf is running good every day. The BMW is in for an engine rebuild. Oh Snap!!

But the BMW is a lot older...

True that, and I think the previous owner pulled it through his ass. That car overheated prior to me buying it.

But next week my baby will be back on the road, and she will run like never before.

Sidenote: I plan on chipping the GTI.

The M3 was towing the Golf in reverse!! :thumbsup:

On a more serious note. I was driving on the M5 one day and I was stunned to see a mini (not the new ones) an old small karretjie of a mini towing a MERC (Compressor).

Maybe it was someone's idea of a big joke, shame maar daai mini het darem heelwat gekak. There was so much smoke. Shame I hope the merc driver paid the good Samaritan by buying him another!

All I can say is, it takes a hell of a lot of krag to be able to pull the M3. What does it weigh?? 2 tons?? he he he he

Isnt the M3 more like 1.4 tonnes? my 7 is just under 2 tonnes and there is no way an E36 can weight that much!!!

You would be suprised at those older Golf's. They have a lot of low end toruqe in them, especially if that is the 1.6I.
Once you get moving though, things get a lot easier. Its pulling off that takes its toll on the pulling car!

EDIT: Just confirmed it. An E36 M3 weights in at 1,460 kg. TBH, a Toyota Corolla is 1.2 tonnes so not too much more weight to pull ;)
