First offence of driving while disqualified will probably get you community service.

Second time there is a chance of a few months jail.

I highly recommend not driving whilst banned. You'll never get insurance again.

same here. first a 1 year ban then a 2 year ban then a 3 year ban and so on. i made it to 2 x 4 year bans running concurrently on top of 150 hours community service and a large fine. next appearance in front of a judge was a custodial sentence i was warned. i didnt do it again.
oh what a mis spent youth i had.

Change of plan - missed out on the touring but managed to secure a 325 cab today - barn find that requires a new engine - was thinking of a 24v conversion , any thoughts welcome ?

That looks like the car tuning clinic down at Holyrood/Abbeyhill? They seem to appreciate and know their way around e30s down there, so at least your old car is in good hands.

i went into that clinic with my red E30 about 3 years ago and the white sport was in the back after just being sold. The was also a blue E30 outside as well.

Did you buy a red jap car?

How much would it be to put my 318is on the rollers and check it over?
