Hi guys,

The story is, i was building/having built a 325 Sport to race in the TTRS last year but ran out of cash. The car in nearly finished (cage, coilovers, seat, harness fitted) but still needs geometry, extinguisher, elec cut off etc done.

Does anyone know a suitable garage near Taunton, where the car is kept, that is experienced in motorsport preparation?

Cheers,

Jay

Jay, I would recommend Fritz' Bitz in Wellington. BMW specialists who run a couple of race cars including an old 635. There more into the older stuff than modern beemers and specialise in E21's and E30's.

Hi Scott, how are you getting on? I let dave at fritz drive mine and he said it was one of the nicest E30s he's ever driven (down to the setup as mine's not clean!)!! I'm marrying Jodie in a week!!! Cheers Alex

Hello Al, congratulations mate!! Once done there aint no going back. Kiddies next! We're all good down here in Tatworth although the car is locked up in the garage and will not be coming out untli I've built an extension to the house. I've had the footings dug and poured and we'll sart on the brickwork in May. Can't see the car turning a wheel until Autumn (just in time for the cheap track day period). Talking of which, I will be hopin to purchase a B12 kit if the extension goes to budget. I saw that they were obtainable for about £500 quid a few months ago but they now appear more like £750! How much did you pay and where did ya get it?

Mine came from evo-s.co.uk, the original zone shop. Is that another garage extension really, maybe a pit or a 4 poster??? How is the michelle and the littluns getting on? You drive your car even less than I do mine!! Cheers
