Welcome to the zone. Looks tidy, not my choice of kit but each to their own :cool: .

Get that front re-sprayed (or a tech 2 front :D )

i got the car with the reiger kit on and lowered it 60mm! only to find out that living in the sticks does no favours for the kit so had to raise the suspension upto 40mm!

When i got the car it came with the reiger bodykit, clifford alarm with remote start and sense and tell, half stainless dual exit exhaust,(very loud!) alloys and full motorsport bubble leather interior. I have added sparco strut brace, fse boost valve, new roof, wind deflector and upgraded the headlights to later spec, at the moment the car is in bits waiting to be rebuilt cos i found few rust spots and the bodykit needs repairing, am hoping to sort it in the new year. Will try and sort photos soon. Cant wait to drive it again!

When I had the rolling road tune done the fse was left at standard pressure, and when i first fitted it the fuel pipe to rail split so renewed that and adjusted the valve back again, think they are a waste of time and money myself.

hello mate, spoke to you on the 5 forum aswell!
I probably wouldnt have put that kit on myself either as its a nightmare on speed humps, but cos car came with it im going to get it sorted, Wheels are 17" azev A`s.
As the car is in bits pics wont be very good but will get some as is for now, will try to post some at the weekend.
I am also hoping to do an engine conversion either m30 3.5 or 2.5 m50 but as ive got engine and dogleg gearbox from my scrapped m535i i will probably do that instead. Am looking forward to getting it back on the road very soon, I miss cruisin around in it as used to go torbay alot.

Good luck!!!!

Hello mate, drive past your collection of cars all the time!! I surf down at Challaborough on a regular basis and drive a white 325i touring with m-tech 2 kit. Was wondering if that white number was a genuine M5 or an M535i for a while. Looks in good nick. Will have to stop and check it out properly one day :D
