Hi guys,

My first post here because I just found the place, there are some monster cars on here..

I needed a new works car and took a little strech and got this..




Needs a little TLC but should be fun for the summer! Anybody know where I can get the center's for the rims, some scum has pinched them

Nice looking car mate,but why the re post?
Was expecting more pics when i saw the title

Wheel centres????
Sell them and get some BBS`s

ahh this is better I can post now
I found a set of caps on ebay.

Not sure if I paid over the odds but eh, what you gona do? I was struggling to find a set of second hand ones and these will be posted out on monday morning

Thanks for the warm welcome in the other thread, but it wont let me post there, says im blocked .

The car cost me 1100 with 980000 on the clock, 9 owners, full BMWSH up to 2 years ago when it just hasnt been done . It had a new battery, 3 tyres and wheel bearing for the MOT. It has no road tax because its been stored over winter. This means I have to wait till I get my insurance documents before I drive/tax it .......roll on next saturday

Ah explains the re post!

Car sounds like a great bargain at that price.

Not sure these are the right caps you need though,hopefully someone will prove me wrong,but i think your wheels look like BK171,those caps look like genuine Alpina,hopefully im wrong though

arrgh Fingers crossed eh. If I have it wrong I can cancel the order first thing tomorrow I supose. I have some boring paper work pics but no more car pics......its at me dad's, good old parents

Yeah i did post a link but then saw your link was working so deleted mine!

Hope im proved wrong mate,saves you cancelling your order.

Good luck

Cheers mate

I have just PM'd cam320i about the car to see if it was his..

Be nice to know some of its past..

hi mate, yes thats my old car just how i had it but with the centre caps, They are AP motorsport alpina reps

u got a bloody good bargain, i sold it for £3500 and you bought it for that amazing bargain, does it still have the exhaust? the guy u bought it off i know off another forum and he told me about him sellin it too late, i wouldv bought it back i rekon, i now have bought an e46

whats your plans with it?

looking at the pic makes me miss it

Im not going to do much with it, although it could do with a gear box. The syncro is notchy into 4th? It needs little thing doing with it, but mainly cosmetic stuff....I thought rob swaped it for his tweaked up 2ltRS turbo? He needed the space and with the notchy change I managed to talk him down

Forgot, yeah it still has that exhuast......deep init

I can't understand how you got that so cheap

These are the centre caps you want I believe:

i didnt give a kack about white lights mate, i wanted pure U.S. look

I managed to get the centers in the end, wheels do need a big referb/replacing though. But as this is a daily works car Im holding my money back

The lights do look very red, but not as red as that picture that cam posted. Must have a look at some standard units?!

just some white sprirt/paint stripper will do and they will be back to normal

i sanded the loghts down with 1000 grit wet n dry then sprayed it and laquered it :p

very cool mate, I had a good look at them yesterday and the red is definatly prominant but they went through an MOT OK! The reversing light isnt white though

Kam... you know you asked me whether I had seen your car in Grimsby...? I said I hadn't seen it... well I had. I only went and looked at it when it was for sale for my Uncle... it never clicked that it was yours! Doh!
