Most of us must have a covering of snow by now, so I thought I would start a picture thread.

Allow me to start the whoring :)

Taken today about 1.30pm

They are known as the "Jimmy Hill" lip spoiler, but not sure of the original part number. They are a BMW part. Only fits to chrome bumper cars I believe, maybe they would fit a facelift with some bodgery?

Mine has no engine or gearbox. We had to push it out of the workshop at 10 am Saturday morning. No snow on it at all. It wasn't even snowing when we put it outside. By 4pm it looked like this.

Poor chromie. :eek:

Well I decided to measure the depth of the snow with a 12" rule.

Image

damn thing nearly disappeared and didn't reach the bottom

as some porn star probably said....12" just isn't long enough 8O

As those last two replies show, IMO an E30 still looks lovely underneath the snow, I love the Calypso.

Sand bags at the ready. I know we've had a pathetic amount of snow, but I work right in the middle of no where, so really don't want to get stuck if it does come down heavier.
