Yeah I'm going to take my own advice on this one and just stop participating.

I think I've said all I need to say.

My friend has a motto:

"Arguing on the internet is like competing at the special olympics; You might win....... but you're still retarded! "

Wise Words !

There seems to be a rise in the number people throwing their toys out of the pram on here lately.

I have a black 325i sport. 1990 with black leather.

I bought it on ebay recently for a pittance. There's a thread on here about it

It needs a little bit of tidying but it is a very very good base car to work up from, it's covered a genuine 104k and has comprehensive service history to verify it. Most of it main dealer.

My plan for it styling wise is to lower 35-40mm it onto koni's.

Then for wheels I'm going to get BBS RS's, BBS RM's or Lenso BSX's. Depends on how much money I have available when that time comes. I should have enough for the RS's cos I get three bonuses this summer. But I don't know if I'll be able to justify spending that amount.

Behind the wheels will be drilled and grooved brake discs all around. Haven't decided on the specifics yet though.

Tinted rear lights with Scorpion Le Mans exit pipes at the back end.

And loads of tasty morsels under the bonnet.

It's a work in progress at the moment, but I'll be ready to fit the suspension and brakes in the next month or so.


Previous to that I've had over 40 E30's. Got out of them for a while but I regretted it and am now back into them in a big way.

You do need to drop the front a bit more though, and paint the panel in the rear spoiler (magpie):P

Sorry mate you've misunderstood me.

I do like the white one, but I don't think the wheels are doing it justice. The car itself is fine.

Didn't mean any offence. Sorry.

As for the other one, well I don't like it. That's my opinion though and I'm entitled to it.

As long as you like it though then that's all that matters.

That was my point all along. No-one has the right to judge someone elses styling preferences using an antiquated class-based method.

Ok I'm really not arguing on here anymore cos it's a waste of time.

Conveying what you really mean through text is a pain in the ass.

As for photo's of my car, as soon as I have it in a condition that I think is worthy of gracing these pages then I'll post up tons. :D

For now though I'd rather not try and show off what is currently a pretty mediocre looking sport.

Ok this is my last post. I don't like the look of the white one with those wheels on it.

I do like the car itself. :wink:

With different wheels on it I think it could be a cracking looking motor.

That's my opinion. Doesn't really bother me if anyone agrees with it, but it's my 2 cents worth

Whoa! This all got a bit serious! 8O It was just a fun post of two zoners cars, Nothing derogatory. I always call my car council/the turd/the snotter and it's always said as a laugh but to the same degree it's just a old car, nowt special.

I picked the scrapper up from Dan tonight, I love driving it on 16s :D

Dan was telling me it got a lot of attention when ever he drove it, Not something I had ever really noticed tbh. Later I was driving to my mates house for a curry (Yum!) and went past one of his neighbours house, the guy is a complete VW nut and had a group of his mates out the front looking at the cars. All of them stopped and stared as I went past and a couple nodded their respect. Made my day that :D

No I'll only show it off when it's ready. She looks a bag of shit at the moment. I got a set of BBS Centres for it alright to tide me over till I get new rims.

So far I've changed the wipers to the Aero Flat ones, Given it new oil (GTX 10W40) with a genuine BMW filter, and I've put new genuine plugs into it. Oh and a K&N Panel Filter.

Next is the gearbox and diff oil, then the rust spots, then the suspension and brakes. I'll do the suspension and brakes at the same time.

Then wheels, then onto the engine......

My problem is that I'm working on a norwegian project at the moment so I'm never in the UK. Been working 7 days a week for almost a month now so finding time is a dose.

Loadsa cash for morsels after the project is over though !!!
