So the silver 1 is the lux?

Mine is a lux too..but came with 3spoke steering wheel...sports seats (heated) spotlight rear view mirror and loads more as standard.


I may have just been lucky.
Lucky 4 me the guy that sold me the car didn't know what he was selling...hahahaha

I was under the impression that what makes a lux a lux is the added sports features........correct me if im wrong.

Nice car tho.

KEEP THE 4DOORS COMING PEEPS.

before anyone asks about the different wheels, the alpinas won't fit on the back as they are wider and the car is too low at the moment..

The five spoke dont look too bad...Those alpina look like the original 16", If you are going for the look.can not beat alpina replicas at 17"...I say go 4 the 5 spoke....just to be different....Im feeling the side skirt...been after some for some time now.......If u know of any going cheap...let me know!
Edited... Actually having a second look they are reps...just look smaller because of the tyre being fat..

I would love to go 60mm, but i know this is unrealistic for me...because my journey to uni, wrk...shopping etc all have blasted speed humps.Dam London!!, what do u suggest??..50mm or 40mm any less is pointless......I think the back on mine might be 40mm but not sure yet!

I would go for about 50mm, so some of the tyre goes under the arch..

60mm will scrape all over, i find it difficult to get the car out of my drive without it scraping.

if its too low, you have to go really slow over bumps and it don't leave a good sight when there are 5-6 cars waiting behind in a queue 8O

what tyre size do you have on the apinas in your sig??

black e30 with alpinas looks mean :cool:

i feel like getting my alpinas powder coated in black !!!

Nah im a welsh boy got my car from the valleys of an old guy he just spent a grand fixing the engine. I think i got it just after everything goes wrong :lol:

Ive been sceptical about kits cos they arent really for 5 doors and dont want it to look chav shiite.

Hand wash al the way mate! Last time i took it through a car wash the machine planed off a whole strip of my inside wheel! No compo either.

Big throttle body and chip in the post
