...And the story begins, got a 1986 325i today that I won from ebay, Ԛ£280. However it was 160 miles away. I managed to get hold of a car trailer for Ԛ£20, and a truck that could pull it for the price of the diesel. Set up the truck last night with a few essentials, tools and wheels! Then set off at 6am this morning to go to Ashford in Kent, roads were clear all the way which was cool, rang the bloke when I was near and met up with him. I followed him to the car's location (in the middle of a run-down estate!) and it was nice to see that the car started up first time and sounded pretty good. Got the v5 and the MOT off him and nothing else, handed over the money and off he went! Was there for about 20mins sortin it out with the trailer and off we went, on our way out I met up with gareth from the Zone for my old suspension which was cool, with his e21
After that we set sail for home, at a 'steady' speed considering the car, got back at 1:30 but by the time the truck and everything was back to it's rightful owner it was 3
Whilst I was gone a mate of mine went to a local garage and picked up my ETA engine for me, whilst Adam was at his house with my 318iS removing the engine - legend! Whilst I was Adam's early this evening Dom came along with a mate to pick up my M42 throttle body, nice to meet ya mate (was a bit odd for him, arriving with 4 lads bent over the back of a Peugeot 405
)Damn I'm tired
