It would have been lovely if I had lobbed the pina reps and bought a set of 9j Borbet's.
And slammed the front, which I should have done, but got carried away with alpina bits..
Which was a bit silly realy, cos it aint an alpina.
If i did it again, it would be euro look all the way, 9j rim's ,red rear lenses, uber low , white rear plate, momo s/wheel, ect...

Man with the E28 vanished, he was going to call back when the E28 was MOT'd, never heard from him again!! must have had a bad fail..

So its on Ebay, it should get £1500ish looking at current prices.

Got the new exhaust on now, thanks Bob-s. 8)

Well it didn't sell again!

So its now replacing my work van.. a bit small but does the job.
Its going to get a bit batterd but its cheaper to kill this than buy another van.
Some more recent pics...
A few bits done when i was selling it, red rear lenses, 60mm front springs, black exhaust pipes, new steering wheel.

Well, not only am i stuck with it, but the bloody thing is jinxed.

1st, lower arms/bushes needed doing. Was on the road 2 days and the thermostat jammed shut without me noticing and blew the gasget. New gasget, water pump, head skim (11thou), thermostat ect.. all good?

On the road 7 hrs and was passing a lorry on a dual carrigway when the lorry changed lanes....destroying the passenger side of the car. - new wing, bumper, boot lid,rear qtr window, doors, gutter trim ect.. now booked for paint.

On the bright side, it now has sports seats, 9j borbets and LSD.

(also now have german plates but too scared to drive with em on :( )

Never a dull moment...pic of the car now looking fooked.

Bollox to the re-paint, car use's too much fuel and its worth more in bits - time to break it.

If im gona use this much fuel, may as well drive a nice jag or somthing.

IMO it would be worth close to that easily, but like with these car's now, it's worth more in parts effectively :(

I cant justify painting it, another £400ish quid. The car is worth under 1k as it is, but if i can find somone breaking a black tourer then i will save it. Again.
