Hehe thanks guys,
Eun, have you heard of the saying "all show and no go"? It is well suited to huge ass kitted E36 318i Autos on 20inch rims hehe.
My last car was a 190E automatic that looked alot better than the E30 but was never going to be anything exciting being 8v and automatic.
Ha! at Gday mate, I am born on Australia day too, such a skippy
