Will post interior pics and engine bay soon.

Looks like you know the car inside and out! How long have you had it?

I might adjust my valves soon - is it a nightmare to do?

Ive been round the car many times, so do know it inside out.

had it about 10 weeks now. was advertised on PH. paid good money for it but more than happy with what i got. i was gonna buy a cheaper one and do the work but decided to start of with a better victim..good choice always IMO.

VALVES
There not to diff. TBH i was in the trade for 10 years (specializing in bodywork) so i found it simple. There is a good article on valves in The TECHNICAL sec.
Take your time and check your work......you should be ok..

Absolute minter

The wheels set it off imo..

Pal

thanks pal

they came of an 'is' looked just like yours

I Want those wheels!!!? Wanna swap for RH Toplines??? Lol

Class car!

Snap !



Well, not me as this Motorsport is my wifes pride + joy and believe it or not there's another identical just down the road from us that turned up a week ago - to think they only made 250 of these in this colour in auto + 50 in manual.

Good to see another one on the Zone - loving the wheels as well fella, lush.

Neil.

beautiful

what make of wheels are they mate are they genuine bbs?

very nice car and it sounds like you've been very busy in the last 10 weeks top work

welcome to the mad house

Those wheels are off the chain!

I see they say BBS? What model? Spokes look like Borbet B weaves.
Whatever they are they sure are NICE!

Very nice mate.

Like the wheels suit very well.

The wheels were on a 318is for sale on PH.
Kinda felt they would suit my car.
Im not much of a wizard on wheel 'j's and offsets... but cause id seen them on an e30 i thought they belonged to the 'Biatch'
Hounded the guy, He finaly accepted my offer and hey presto!!
Belive to be 'image' rims....
Does that mean good or bad????

Oh yeah..........Manualbox...is that rare???

Does anyone know how many motorsports are on here...??

Image rims are a fine piece of kit to have - if your M/S is a genuine factory manual and not a converted auto then yep it's a rare 1 of 50 made in Sebring Grey.

There's a few M/S cabs on here, not to sure exactly how many but i do know there's x4 of you with Sebring ones now

Neil.

the lad who owns the is on here under jamesb318is I think looks nice
