E30 Zone

Myself and Nickso had a mini Zone meet today at my place.
I thought I would take a couple of photos of my 525ix.
I have only had it a couple of weeks and have already had to do an engine change
It all seems ok now though and is running sweet apart from a few electrical niggles that I will sort out as soon as I can.
Plans are, M5 kit, lowered, facelift nose, and a light tint on the rear windows. I have already put a set of style 32 17"s on which I think look great on it.
The final aim is something like this..


Anyway, heres a couple of pics of it and Nickso's chariot..

sports lather? got a set on the bay the now:)



looks a nice chariot! enjoy, ad get an m30 in there pronto

Alright Neil!
The M50 is much nicer than that rattly old M30 I had in the 335.
Its smooooothhh!

Tis a tidy winter weapon an no mistake. No idea who owns that calypso turd in front of it though.

Seriously, I drove this down to the Mo and back and shoogly front discs apart it's a really good buy. Shame you had to swap the donk but at least you know it's 99% sound now.

Mind and post your vid of you drifting through 2 foot snow drifts.

Looks good Ritchie

I am breaking a e34 525ia touring atm if you need anything .It has what looks to be new front discs and o/s/f caliper looks new .

Thats great Jake, does it have a facelift nose?
I'm after a Light Control Module and a mainbeam light.
There is probably more I need but i've not found out yet!

Drivers window trim.

I'll prob just buy new, don't think it will be that much.
Anything else you can think of Nick?

Thats it there Ritchie i know very little about them so dont know what a facelift looks like.
The lights look mint do you the pair for much cheapness .Where is the lcm located?

That was the only thing popped into my head.

Jake, I will have a think about anything else I need and might pop through some night this week if thats ok.

Cheers.

ETA, Got the funky sunroof fixed Nick, it just needed resetting after disconnecting the battery when I changed the lump.
You just press the button for ten seconds and it resets the motors.
Working fine now.

Would depend what night bud but should be fine.Dont thing you will see much after 4.30pm tho

Ritchie, I passed you on the way home from my offshore survival training in aberdeen last friday, on the a90 southbound, i was driving a $hitbox skoda company car and slowed down as i was overtaking to have a look as you dont see many of these.
thats a decent looking motor you've got there

Ha! Cheers! I can't wait to get it lowered, kitted etc. I reckon its gonna look the tits.

ETA, How did you get on with the BOSIET? Was it Survivex or Falck? Good fun isn't it!

the bosiet wasnt an entirely pleasant experience but I managed it
It was at Falck and I was in the first group as I had a medical to attend so the second group got to watch us go first, you should have seen their faces.....chalk white and utterly $hitting themselves

Any use to you?

I heard they didn't do so much of the copter washing machine action anymore? I did my BOSIET and OLF 4 years back and thought it was good fun.
