New daily turd.. Lowering the tone..

[DanThe]

Whens your next diffin day?

[Jhonno]

Cheers Rob. I think they were a good choice also. Really brought it alive imo.

@Rob.. It does a little yeah!

Lee.. Nope, not yet. Fronts fit pretty damn good tbh.

Dan.. Just digging out my cable ties

[shedrool83]

Love the wheels .I took 18" off my e36 touring as the ride was pants but mines has cheap coilovers which might have added to the ride being pretty crap.

Only thing i'd add to that is the m3 bumpers and it would be complete imo.


I really like the e36 touring as a daily .

Lee.. Nope, not yet. Fronts fit pretty damn good tbh.

Mine caught when on full lock going over a bumps to the point where it was pulling the lip outwards and gouging the tyre.

[Simon13]

thats so council, it needs a PYF type number plate!

[Jhonno]

I take that as a compliment Si.. PYF was epic!

[pac1982]

what wheels are they i need them for my touring!!!

[Jhonno]

[spook]

That looks the tits Jhonno, good work.

[harry_p]

does look good, and all the better for NOT having an m3 bumper imho

[Jhonno]

Yeah.. Like my E30's I like the kitless lines. Keeping it simple.

What was under the hood kos? i really wanted a white one but there really rare to find in a good spec

This is mine 323 sport touring




I don’t agree about touring’s looking better without kit, they need kit imo to lift them out of the bland/boring category that most estates/touring’s fall in to.

The OP has achieved this by fitting some epic wheels, i really need some dish on mine

[Kos]

it was a 318tds

came with leather climate and genuine M3 kit and was faultless in the 18 months is owned it.

No one said they look better sans kit as a rule. That statement was applied to my Turd specifically, with the look it currently has.

[MattTheHat325]

Here's mine as it is atm, best daily ever!

[Jhonno]

I like that a lot Not got round to having a pervert clean of mine yet.. Did clean and feed the drivers seat last weekend though.

We could probably organise a sizeable e36 Touring daily meet just on this forum..

[MattTheHat325]

I bet we could! They get more love on here than they do on e36coupe! I've found it perfect for picking stuff up in like interiors and alloys etc, and it always becomes the topic of conversation when i get there! Mine's just had an inspection 2 and a full coilover set-up at Simpson Motorsport, feels lovely now

[Jhonno]

I had 8 wheels sat in mine the other week.. It is indeed perfect to lugging stuff about. I have BMW roof bars and load liner also, also factory removeable towbar if I was that way inclined.

[MattTheHat325]

perfect list of accessories! They must be the most versatile BMW around at the moment in terms of reliabilty/practicality/useability/drivabilty/affordability, ticks all the boxes for me anyway! Yours sits pretty on those 18's! I worried about 18's being too big on mine but they look just right now i've seen yours. wouldn't mind some full leather in mine too!

[Jhonno]

Yeah definitely.. Nothing can come close for the money imo. Still DIY repairable for sensible £££ also.

I was concerned also, but it wears 18's spot on imo..

I want heated leather sport front seats.. No more spending for a while though.

i didnt day i don't like the kit, just that i DO like cars that are silly low with epic wheels and near standard bodywork.

i thought the same about my compact, i had it nice and low on staggered style 5s, and just thought it worked and looked so much more euro for having a standard bumper. it wasnt a sporty car, it was never going to be, so i wanted to keep it low and smooth and let the wheels and stance do the talking.

also, for some reason the mtech bumper never quite looks deep enough, if you look side on it sits higher than the skirts which i've always found odd. ive always thought they should have made it an inch or so deeper, it would have made it much more aggressive too.

[Simon13]

Well i'm breaking my 328i touring So if anyone wants anything let me know. Engine + box and bits are going into a track e30

leather interior is sold also but its got B4 dampers, steering rack left. Panels are all crap

But as we know i'm replacing it with B3 wagon

[capri_rob]

Great cars these :



Super Clean


If I lived a bit closer to work I'd have a 328i Touring like a shot

[Jhonno]

Oil cap is on upside down.. School boy.

Only +1000 style points for yours

[MattTheHat325]

Haha cheers mate, yeah it's avus, stunning when the sun hits it! All they need is a drop on some nice rims and you're laughing!

[Jhonno]

Had a bit of a mess about with the camera recently.. Wanted to try a few things, I don't think anything came out particuarly well, but molested these pics for fun..

[Dezzy]

Look like good shots to me!

[penton08]

Looks well mate It would seem that e36 wagons are the tool of choice for a daily around here.


Mine......

[Jhonno]

Those wheels been refurbished now fella? They look it. Looks awesome.. Is that up by yours btw? Looks a good shoot location.

[penton08]

Yep, The wheels have had a cheapy refurb. The picture was taken on Hadleigh road industrial estate

[Simon]

Plenty of E36 tourings coming out of the woodwork!!

Can I join the party?
