Just acquired M3, and whilst it's my 4th E30, I don't want to mess it up. Is there any M3 experienced Zoners in Oxford / Reading area, who wouldn't mind sparing a little time to give her the once over. I'm wanting to identify and get sorted any preventative jobs, rather than find out later. Thanks.

Sounds great. Time & place to suit you - although this and next weekend are out for me, as working away. I'm just outside Goring-on-Thames, 12 miles west of Henley, 10 miles north of Reading. High Wycombe isn't a problem for me, as only 28 miles & 45 minute nice cross country run across Chilterns thru Henley-Marlow. At this end, I have garages, trolley jack.

OK, let's say 1400 on Sunday afternoon ? RG8 7SZ postcode, if anyone wants last 3 miles description, email me at tonybrice@btopenworld.com and I'll send you description of how to get there. Clue about who's coming, so I can warn the wife and let my son know !

I wouldn't mind stopping by for a look. Ihave to drop the missus and kids off at Heathrow at 1:00pm on Sunday so I am almost passing you by. Hopefully I'll be able to fit them with all their stuff into the Is, then swing by on my way home. Can you send me the directions to micktdel@yahoo.com

Looking forward to seeing the M3 8O :D
Mick
