My M3 at the Pistonhead show

[andye30m3]

As I hate washing cars I thought I post a very rare picture of my M3 being clean, Its up at the Pistonheads / Autosport show having had a full bare metal respary at SPR coachworks in East Sussex over the summer.

That looks stunning,henna red with black trim looks so good. Proof if it was needed that less is more and how right the M3 looked out of the box. Big council rims , 60 mm drops and tinted lights are NOT 'improvements' boys !

+1 for me too

Looks very nice mate, nothing like a nice red M3. Bmw definately got it right from the factory that day

[Blitz]

Looks, stunning. Looks better then any modified one.

[harry_p]

looks a nice lineup of modern and classics too,

e30 m3, e30 m3 sport evo, integrale, rs2, f430gt, 996gt3, is that a venturi atlantique?

i do love to see a lovely clean, as it rolled out of the factory m3 and your car does indeed look amazing, but i also have no problem with people doing tastefull, period, and reverseable modifications to their cars either. although this may be a bite to those with fishing rods, it was the racing m3s that made me want one, so i have no problem with a spot of lowering, slightly larger wheels etc to a point. by the same token i would never bung on aftermarket halfords wheels of fill the boot with phat subs innit bruv

also, the car above does look like it's wearing 16in wheels which were not standard for that model year

PAH! What do you know anyway

To Andy
I hope it doesn't come back with loads of little scratches! And why do they need more than 1 E30 M3. Saying that, I've heard PH show is full of 911's.

And where are the ropey promo girl pics. I need a laugh!

[blackcountrybimmerman]

Lovely car.

Nuff said.

What did you think of SPR? Would be nice to know of a good coachworks in my locality.

As the others have said, your car looks stunning mate, just the way they should be, credit to you!!

[andye30m3]

Cheers for the replies, it's taken a lot of hard work over the summer to get it looking that good, still need a few bits under the bonnet an then I'll be happy

Rich, hope your wrong about the scatches but we'll see on sunday.

Theo, with regards to SPR I would very highly recomend them, reasonable prices for a good job. I've known the 2 guys who run it since school and can confirm they have the right idea towards both quality and service anyone is welcome to come and see my car as an example of their work. Have a look at their web site it's www.sprcoachworks.co.uk anyone who keeps their workshop like they do clearly takes pride in what they do.

Car looks good, looking forward to seeing in the flesh when i go to the show on Sunday.

The Sport Evo is the back ground looks nice.........................

[Rich_W]

Nah, thats owned by some really ugly bloke Bit of a media darling, its always the car you see in the magazines. Normally alongside an article about 100K timing chains.

Andy. I've seen a couple of pics from the show and the cars are roped off, so you'll hopefully be ok.

Thanks Andy, good to know that they've had past experience with M3's - think i'll go over there some time for a chat about some work I want doing. Where abouts are you based, local to the Kent/East sussex border?

[evosport1990]

ha ha

[andye30m3]

One of the guys at SPR has done loads of e30 m3's so knows his way around them.

I'm in Crowborough. Were abouts in Kent are you?

[Theo]

That's good to know, will definitely check them out. I'm based near Cranbrook so not far from Crowborough at all. Would be nice to have a look at your car some time to see an example of their work, I'll get in touch nearer the time if you're happy to meet up?

[andye30m3]

Yeh welcome to come and have a look any time.

Hoping to get to a few local meets this year as well.
