That's your fault for taking it out of the box !

Sorry, just looked very similar then. Lovely car nonetheless though.

Need engine shots please mate

This ain't no garage queen or concours champion and there are far nicer Sports than mine
this drives beautifully.
Swapped to MTech1 steering wheel.
Also sorted one of the outstanding issues

Great drive
I was behind 4 Series Coupe on A road
Really drives good
The MTech1 steering wheel actually feels nicer and I don't have to worry about damaging it. Maybe because I have done a lot of mileage in it.

Someone wanted photographs of the engine.

This is not the original silver and this was like this when I bought it unfortunately

I love how the illumination lamps illuminate upon start up

Why not ?

At the Disabled pictures.

Can't believe your putting Jap speakers into an e30.

Shame on you Pony, I thought you would have done your homework

Post Tue May 20, 2014 8:28 pm

Nothing wrong with Alpine.

Besides, Pioneer are also jap and they were dealer fit, like Blaupunkt.

I'm pulling one of the Pony's legs GRRRR!

That is not actually a mosque.

What makes u think is a mosque ?

Post Tue May 20, 2014 10:36 pm

I ask questions because I'm inquisitive and like learning things. The reason why I think the building looks like a mosque is due to the metal railings and the paint job. Railings are far too large and the paint could do with a freshen up.

Is actually a Sikh Guruwarda. Allegedly the oldest in the UK. They are having building works there done ATM.

Thank you. It looked like a non-Christian place of worship

Arch repair looks good though, nice job for £175. My Compact is mid restoration at the mo.

They have a crashed E46 M3 CSL front and back at the bodyshop. Ask Barry to forward you the photographs.

Well, when I say "white socks", I used that to describe the colour had they been clean... I should have said; You wearing off white, dirty old socks, Pony? FFS!

Car's look very tidy!

I have ordered some more parts from BMW Dealer

Post Fri May 23, 2014 6:13 pm

So today I saw D Registration E24 6 Series while I was in traffic and the bald Phil Mitchell type driver was giving me the nod and thumbs up seal of approval

Later a couple of "bruvs" in VW Golf MK3 in black while I was in traffic stopped and asked me if I am selling. To which I say no. And they were like come on blah blah. Got to say is nice for it get to some appreciation

Post Fri May 23, 2014 6:17 pm

Don't be silly Pony, it's obvious they don't want the car, they want you!
