The plates are the originals so it would be a shame to get rid of them. They're staying. I wonder if I could refurb them?

Oh..... the wheels are painted nogaro silver btw, the car is Delphin Grey. :)

and yes, the stripes are original to the car.

I work in New Malden, just off the A3 (Shannons Corner). If you ever pop to the Tescos sometime soon, would love to see your car(s) in the flesh.!! :D

Daily driver is a Orient Blue E34 525i SE. Also got an E30 323i track car.

^ yup. It's really not a problem for me. Its not a daily driver and never will be so it will stay poverty spec :D
To me, a weekend car for fun, needs nothing but a pretty body, an engine and 2 seats. I've got the 540i for mod cons and comfort. :P

Had the pleasure of looking at this car up close today, have to say, its bodywork and interior are superb! The final figures on the dyno raised a few eyebrows too winkeye
