After always being a VW man since i passed my driving test, i finally sold this:
to buy this....
Its a 320i Cabrio
I've been looking for a nice clean chrome bumper car for ages and this one came up, i just had to have it. I perhaps paid a tad more then i should have but its got full history from new, since 40k miles its had a oil change every 5k or so. Its got every MOT and i know the last 2 owners!
It needs a little tidy up but i'll be giving it a full detail as it needs a little paint correction to be perfect. I may also get the rims refurbed and lower the front a tad.
Other then that, i think i'm quite happy with it staying like this!
Hope you all like her!

Looks a very tidy example. A 35mm drop all round and some rear headrests will make it.

Looks a nice one and the Golf was looking good as well. A dead ringer for my mates 16v which he's building a 2 litre lump for at the mo.

Thanks for the comments!
Does anyone know where i can get a good quality lowering spring that works with the original dampers? i dont want to ruin the smooth ride but the front arch gap is horrid!

Eibach 35mm are your best bet or if you dont want to go that low then original BMW M technic springs are 15mm lower.
