Proper ones are LHD, they did convert a few to RHD but they say the driving experience isn't the same...325i steering rack etc, I haven't been sleeping the last 3-4 nights!!

Very happy, after having a good drive in it today on some nice driving roads too, every thing I've been told about the M3 is true, anyone thinking about it...do it, they're awesome.

Go and have a look at the silver M3, in Yorky brothers in scuttle rust. :lol:

How bads the problem on your car Simon.

Do you know where I find out the key for these optional extras, from the label, under the rear seats. Have you found this label on any of your cars?.

Cheers Gareth.

I did see a label under the rear seat once, can't say I took much notice though...

This is the worst side, it hasn't spread underneath to the bulkhead, so all should be a simple job...well as simple as changing a scuttle can be!

i'm trying to get the insurance for the sport asap, but i should be insured by the 30th(too late for the meet i know) but i am hoping that the insurance company will allow me a few cross over days if i say to them that i need to pick up the car or whatever, i was waiting for them to ring back, but that was three or four days ago. :x
