Re:

Sold at the weekend.... 8O

Did not use the car enough (weather) to warrant having a 3rd car in the garage (the insurance, tax etc)

What tyre pressures have people played with - the car does so few miles i don't really have the chance to experiment - currently running 35 front and rear but not sure if thats optimal - any ideas??

I like the orange indiccators - had the black plastic surround off the side ones professionally sprayed dolphin which blends into the car really well..

Re: 325i Sport C2.7 Conversion

nice looking car. Not keen on vadars in E30's or the bubble seats tbh (if bubble is the style that comes with E30 convertible motorsports - each to his own). 2.7 must be fun - do you know roughly what the car is making bhp (obviously rolling roads differ etc but a rough estimate would be interesting).

Re: Calibre vintage 16" good or not so good

buy some 16" staggered lenso's for £550 and spend the cash on something else - come on must be better ways to spend the cash?

Obviously down to personal preference though - i like the Lenso's but i bought the car with them - BBS RS would be cool but other things to spend cash on!!!!!!

That is a lotta cash when best 325i sports demand 5-6k. I think bbs RS would be cash invested and always get the money back but not these.
