I've got a 1989 325 - it is low miles so I assume the toolkit is original, and it is all stamped Walter, but I'm missing the 8/10 mm spanner.

I've just been down the scrappys and couldn't believe that the complete toolkit was still in a scrapped E30 (hats off, bent heads, minute of silence please).

Perfect condition, but it's all stamped Heyco.

As I even have year-matched BBS alloys, I want to keep the car totally totally original.

Did the two companies supply tools to BMW simultaneously, or did one take over from the other please?

Stop laughing at the back there - some people like to Mod, some like to keep as ze Chermans intended. Vive la difference.

My 325i (4/88 ) are all Heyco.
