is this rare

[tailoutcharlie]

i just noticed i have a little rechargable torch in my glove box. this seems like one of those things that get lost over the years and are worth something now (like the tool kit).

go on burst my bubble.

[munky30]

Its not rare, but it is something that goes missing.... I dont have one, or a tool kit, or bloody first aid kit.

[Frenchy]

Bubble popped !!

Desirable but you can still get them new, the rechargeable battery goes in them cheaper to buy a new one as the battery is pricey if not working.

ps got a full toolkit first aid box and triangle in my iS

[tylerma]

I have one in mine
but it dont work

not sure if you can replace the batteries or not

He says with THAT avatar.... ^^

only other bit i got is the spark plug tool and a screwdriver in the tool kit. bmw do like to give you anything you could ever need.

do the e90's come with women now then?

[tomtomiS]

yea ive got a small selection, 2 white ones from previous e30's and a few i unintentionally robbed from e46's while i was working at barons!

[Frenchy]

[tailoutcharlie]

They do like to make life easy for mechanics.

Take a back axle apart on say a ford then one off bmw see the difference between getting bolts of etc

the arn't much kop at actually looking at stuff unless its pitch black outside. Even when fully charged, tho considering the state of headlights on E30's its no surprise. The one thing the germans didn't master in the 80's was seeing out past thier bonnet at night!

[Blitz]

But I do love the simplicity of the headlights.

[Frenchy]

Someone must have buggered about with my headlights then as they are supberb !!
My previous toy was an Audi S4 Avant with Zenons very white clear lighting but the range and amount of up ahead lighting is excellent on the E30 i live down a minor road with no street lighting on one section and everything is visible in the E30.

[tailoutcharlie]

got to admit i have no trouble seeing all the little animals i squish drivin at night!

and it gets bloody dark down here in the middle of chuffin nowhere.

A glove box torch is not rare, but a working one is !

[dimebag_from_hell]

A glove box torch is not rare, but a working one is !

Yep, i got one! doesnt work though

[boxclever1753]

i got two - neither work!

and my headlights are rubbish, i have to drive honking the horn every 20 yards....

[andye30nut]

ive got 150 watt bulbs not rubbish but no brilliant either

[jonmsm]

ditto with the torch - never had a workin one. I do however have a complete tool kit - when i say complete i mean with fuses, bulbs AND the BMW embossed blue duster cloth that come with the large tool kits in the M535i's (got to love the BMW duster! haha!)... its just silly, it has so many tools and spanners - you could service your car without a seperate tool kit I am very sure!

[J_Mac]

yep got one, could work not sure as it the connection that has no power to it can't be arse'd to sort it either, do you expect a torch that is 15 - 20 years old to work.

[lenny-d]

got one and i've also a full tool kit

Put new head lights in for mot 2 months ago with uprated bulbs, holy she ite wot6 a difference, i can now see where i'm goin

[tristan325]

I've got a torch in my Tech 1 sport AND it's in perfect working order!! Also have the triangle, first aid kit and a full, if somewhat rusty, toolkit.

RRRRRRRSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSPPPPPPPPPPPPPP

[Rosc0PColtrane]

got toolkit, triangle and torch, working.

[powelly]

I have a complete tool kit, however due to the leaky boot and the subsequent condensation it`s all rusty
