Your thoughts on Hartge graphics

I have not been around on the forum for a while but do post of the Facebook group. I always wanted to put the Hartge race car graphics on my touring, to look like a support vehicle, maybe something the driver and co-driver used to get to and from the rally stages etc. I thought it would look cool li...

Not really been affected by it apart from no wage rise in 4 years. Mortgage at 36k so if the interest rate changes I don't really notice it. It will be paid off in 7 years anyway.

Re: Santa Pod - BMW Show 2013 - September 15th

Some of the zone passes I can get posted out again but literally only to people who are driving in convoy so they can hand them out to their group, i.e tonybtonyb as I know he always comes in a big convoy, and maybe to Magpie or Rav for those camping... I wont be posting them out to everyone again ...

Re: Need some advice on a new exhaust.

OE system won't be cheap though. It'll cost a similar amount to a stainless system. I was quoted £1,300 for an original BMW system. I purchased a Blueflame stainless system for £386 even though its £482 on their website http://www.blueflameperformance.com/bmw-325i-e30-catback-system-twin-350-slash-...

Anyone recommend a stainless exhaust?

Just been informed that the exhaust on my E30 has caused it to fail the MOT. They are quoting £480 for a pattern part, im thinking I could get a stainless steel one for that or a bit more. The garage to their credit are saying the part they can get is not great quality and will only have a few years...
