If any of you ever need anything picking up from Berlin let me know. I am based inbetween Basildon, Essex and our Berlin Manufacturing plant, where I travel regularly to every fortnight week.

If you let me know what you want and where to get it from I will do my best to go and pick it up for you depending on weight. I have a baggage allowance of 37K so don't be asking me to bring back a lump or a gearbox! :D

I work for a company called Visteon. Our Berlin plant is on Wupperstrasse which is in D-14167, only a few minutes away from Stegletz.
We make door trims, dashboards, centre consoles and rad grilles there for numeous manufacturers.
Not over there for a fortnight which is a touch, spending far too much time away from home.

Hi Gareth, Yes im definately going to the ferrybridge meet,see you there , thanks for the comments mate, Swirlye30 thanks also, i like the BBS wheels best myself, ive since sold the Alpina reps that are in the pictures, the number plate surrounds are what i bought in Berlin, the English plates fit straight in them and you dont have any bolt holes or screws in the plates , cheers Dave
