"It has real character and real soul and I know how cliche and corny it's sounds", says Mark Brown about his modified BMW E30 M3, a car that started out its life as a race car.
A video delves into the life of a man and his special car which he uses as a daily. It's not bubble-wrapped in a garage somewhere to maintain its value.
Homologated from a race car to a road car
Brown's M3 is where it should be, on the road for all the enjoy. And in the same way his love for the M3 developed, he hopes that a youngster will see his love and the love for cars will be born from seeing a 'race car'on the road.
Petrolicious said: "This week we’re in England putting our harnesses on in Mark Brown’s modified BMW M3. The E30 generation was the very first of the now-iconic M3s, and the only one that was built as a race car first and street car second.
"The homologation special supported the most successful touring car of all time for the German marque, and Mark didn’t escape the draw of the M3 when he watched them compete in the period.
"Following a debilitating accident, he’s now recovered and behind the wheel of his own E30 M3 that he’s modified into a tasteful, street-legal, track car that looks the absolute business with a set of driving lights on the hood."
