Re: Santa Pod show
Here’s a few pics that have been taken from Santa Pod at the weekend, big thanks to Kos at C_Unit and Mike Smith Media. It was a great day even though a little a little costly to enter. http://i1035.photobucket.com/albums/a436/stevetrayandaaron/2014%20santa%20pod/BMWShow1_zpsc2c9989f.jpg http://i103...

Re: Steves E30 325i Vert project
Well it went through the MOT with 2 small advisories, so now it's fully legal and I can start to enjoy driving it.
Taxed it today so I'll have some fun this weekend.

Re: Steves E30 325i Vert project
Cheers guys for the great comments.
I used a DA with a Menz cutting compound. It needs another cut then I'll put a covering of poorboys black hole and seal it with Z8. The car has 97k on the clock with nearly full service history.

Gloss black with black leather, A/C, switchable auto, OBC, and power hood. That's a good spec cabrio! Odd that it has one heated seat switch though? Original Hexagon BMW car as well? Good to hear you are going totally OEM with it but its crying out for 15" BBS. That will be the only up grade, it's ...
