heya,

Jesus you can't go anywhere without bumping into someone from Cork! What type of E 30 do you have? I've probably seen you around the city. I've got a couple of names around Munster of BMW scrappers, if you don't have them already...

ya she looks pretty good alright, nice set of rims, how long do you get out of the tyres? any mods done to the motor?

I'm based there between togher and the city, u? Passed my NCT this morning, thank god! Bastards only gave me 9 months until the next one though.
