You don't often see cars restored this well - the underbonnet detailing and finish is unbelievable - I wish I could do a job like this. Mind you, it was 'professionally restored'.

I thought for once he was too

omg! looks like im going to have to step it up a gear for my next project. I didnt realise colour coding to the engine bay was in vogue right now, i was sticking with the outdated make it look like BMW just built it mindset, how foolish do i feel now?

luckily its not too late as i have some lachs silver to waft about at random in the bay although i might wait till the donks back in to ensure correct coverage.

you know the other day you asked what i would do about masking the strut top mounts? well nothing i guess, just paint straight over em,lol

The engine bay looks like it was painted by RWDONLY aka Steve Clare. He takes a painstaking effort in his work.

Painstaking effort to avoid any work, that is.

What a mess

A true blow over respray

Yes, but that clown would put the paint on upside down.

The owner has obviously seen the ad for the 35 bag blue M3 and thought a hasty coat of blue would increase his chances. Being a perfectionist, unlike our mate Tej, he also painted the bay !

Apparently there is a newspaper article featuring the car after a professional restoration, im wondering if this linen is part of the sills as its pretty obvious they will paint over anything!

Ha ha ha

That's a quality advert. I am sure he has missed something!

Was it profesionaly restored in sheffield by any chance? Or would it still be there?

Epic Fail!

By the way Dez, whats up with the "F" button?

Mat a mixture of iPhone and me being a retard mate.

forkin ell that looks quality

my bet is his 'mates' are bidding on this turd ?

Its not too far from us, I might have a drive to see it first hand!! If it looks that bad in the photos then its gonna look like an absolute turd in the flesh.

I reckon it's salvageable and there could be a decent car in it.

Just

I knew I was missing something from my car, blue splattered radiator, coil and hoses

and who on earth wants to see the fuses thru the see thru-cover. paint over that sucker!
