Lovely Lachs Silver 325i spotted in Sainsburies Salford

Roughly 4pm yesterday, filling up at the petrol station in sainsburies, on the M602 coming out of manchester - whoever you are that was a fine example, it looked mint! had a funny number plate though! Nice clean Alpina reps to.

just carry your normal plates with you for when you get pulled, just say youve been to a show and forgot to change them over.

I get a bit of hassle in my dub, bare in mind they are fully illegal now.

dont think the whole 'you snooze you lose' argument cuts it in this day and age pal. community's such as online forums are a a place for trust, members build up rapport with each other, and such antics got left behind in school. none of my business but its happened to me before and its well annoying.

Well set up Golfs seem like they don't understeer like most fwd cars. yeah a good valver with the right suspension, i.e coilovers and ARB's will hold the road like shit to a shovel! So what your saying is if i went in a 325 cab my golf would feel quicker, at the end of the day they are two differen...

jfyi...

mk2 golfs running tuned 1.8t's or highly tuned g60's (approx 280-300bhp) only just verge 14's, and the mk2 is a lighter car!!

surely a 3.5 six should get 14's?

They really fill out the arches nicely but tyres are just too chunky. I'm getting a bit worried that my BBS splits are just going to be tooooo wide for the rear! :cry: winkeye Just fit stretched rubber like i do to my golf, if its an 8j wheel you will be able to stretch 205/40's over them so that t...

Like the Golf mate very nice but as already said you'll have a hard job finding a cab with the spec you want and if you do youll be paying top $ for it, just a thought why dont you get a late Mk1 Golf cab and put a VR6 lump in it ? because its a right mission, involves modifying corrado subframes a...

Ideally i'd like 6 cylinders, but i can imagine a 325i cab would put a significant dint in my insurance premium. Ive had a brief word with them and a cab puts it up £400!!! whereas a 325i coupe is only £100 more. With a 318i Cab i get an £80 refund!! Just a few q's: What is petrol consumption ...
