Wonder if I've still got your address saved

That was only an initial delivery address. It goes too several other addresses before it arrives at the lair!

I've been there. I was blindfolded and thrown into the boot of a car, then driven round the countryside for hours. Eventually we arrived at what I think was a disused underground base from the cold war where I had my blindfold removed. All I'm prepared to say about the things I saw in the lair is that houndstooth wallpaper is surprisingly absorbent..

Genuine smoked Hellas.
Unfortunately I imported them from Germany so they won't let them through an MOT...

Thankfully ! Usually only found on boggo 316s. My theory being the original purchaser could not afford an engine so a top coat of paint was definatey not happening !

No, there are cruise control systems scattered far and wide. I've got one for a left hooker.

I present to you perhaps the rarest morsel of them all, and a true morsel at that, a genuine M-tech BMW Alpina Motorsport mint. These are only available to the fortunate few, and are closely guarded at BMW dealerships, only M buyers are allowed to have 1, and 1 only. Still in its original wrapper, unsucked from new.
I don't like mints myself, so I'm prepared to let this one go to a true enthusiast. Offers please.

Selection of BMW hardtops available, please ask!

Hardest part/ rarest part in my experience is a mint prefacelift isolator switch

Does seat fabric count as a morsel? It's been NLA for at least 5 years.

This is why I no longer drive an E30......
