Replace that air filter.
Get an iS lip spoiler and she will look spanking!

That's a clean looking 320; very nice. However, that engine looks like it's done more than 40,000 miles; maybe a good clean's in order, then she'll be a minter.

The engine and engine bay are exactly as i got the car )appart from servicing of course) I didn't want to steam it off as it still has the factory wax protecting it all, you can make one with 200k look like new with a steam cleaner. If i keep the car it will have a fresh 2.7 dropped in

Looks stunning. Like those wheels more every time i see them. As max says, get an iS lip for it. Will finish it off perfectly.

Your car looks like something who came out of the show room 3 years ago!
It looks very clean and very nice! 5 out of 5 stars for that one!

think i'd clean the bay, no matter if i was selling it or not. it would make a very nice show car, all cleaned
look's spot on from the outside and the cabin area, go on

get that bay all cleaned up

Cirrus blue and Hartges, very nice. Use a pressure washers and some diluted TFR (traffic film remover) to clean the engine bay. Will get it nice and clean but not remove the wax.

No steam cleaner needed Geoff. Gunk, elbow grease and a hose. Your car looks spot on,really like that colour.

Thanks for the comments guys, not only does the car look like new it also smells like new. interior wise i agree with you, it needs a leather nob and a blue leather gaiter, i have a Z3 short shifter to fit somewhere and the plan was to replace these parts then, as for the under bonnet i can see what your saying and my other pride and joy has its under bonnet waxed everytime i wax the outside but i think for the moment it will stay as is. As for the lip spoiler i'm always on the look out for a hartge one but to no avail, keep looking tho
