Well finally got some pics yesterday, she's a bit of a standard old nail. But hey with only 94thou on the clock, 1 family owner from new, a mountain of history and tax + tested til september a bargain for only £300

The plan is to go proper euro style with her, just slammed with some nice wide wheels, smoothed body and just generally buffed right up :cool:

Anyways, here's the pics, be gentle she is completely standard!

My little bro works in a garage, and a regular of theirs had it as he station car, he was just wanted to get rid as his wife had got a new car and this wasn't being used. Right place right time i guess.

Mechanically always really well looked after she just hadn't been cleaned for years so the paint isn't in great shape, seems to be a really fine grain in the laquer, polishes up ok but still not really smooth to touch.

Yeah hopefully, but luckily enough the guy had it maintain religously, fully stamped service book up to last service which was 4k miles ago, either at my bro's garage or BMW. Even had the couple of advisorys done at the last MOT.

Just a shame he didn't look after the bodywork as well, she needs a new wing on the passenger side and the rear arches are rusting a little, but thankfully zero chassis rust.

If anything it'll be suspension and brakes that need replacing before anything major.
