council 325i m-tech 2 sport

[steve_k]

well it now look's like the sport in my sig is going to be called "council" by some of you on here as i have just got my new HID h1 8000k xenons & angel eye's,

now those alone might not make it "council" but i'm sure it will be labeled as such as it has a set of 17" bk alpina rep's & a 60/40 drop.

you can make up your own mind when i finally post up some proper pic's in the photo gallery,

thing is i don't really care if it get's tagged as council as at the end of the day it's my car & i do to it what i want.

just keep an eye on the photo gallery & make your own mind up.

[bodger]

what do you mean it will be called council now, i always thought it was anyway

[oakey]

Nowt wrong with a bit of council
There is a council in us all

[steve_k]

what do you mean it will be called council now, i always thought it was anyway

true but now it will look proper council

like i said if folk don't like it tough it's not their car.

as has been said on here before it's all down to personal choice.

any way i live between to council estates & if it fit's in with the chav's rot boxes they might leave it alone.

too true.

i reckon it's all down to snobbery,

what i mean is that some folk get on their & have a rant because some one who is on a (tight) budget has gone down a route thats been well troden before & don't like it.

like i said it's up to the person who own's the car what they do to it.

if folk don't like what you do to your car then

Council is a passing phase, My car is on the way back from the depths of councildom.

[Steve]

I disagree, it's here to stay

i can't really argue as the G/F payed for the HID'S & angel eye's as a late birthday gift so what csn i say?

[d6dph]

It will always be here as long as you own that driveway ornament Steve

I've always been a firm believer in your car do what you want, what's the point in buying a car and doing what other people want you to do to it. IT'S YOUR BLOODY CAR you bought it, if you fancy puttin flames up the side drop it 4 inches and fitting 22s and neons as long as you're happy and like it then fair play, not my cup of tea but it's not my car, knock yourself out mate

Yeah you're right, but does give the birds something to crap on

Nah... it's always there in the deep dark depths of our souls. It needs to be held at bay with great discipline or else before you know it your cruisin' around croydon rollin on Bk reps

My name is ... and I'm a counciholic.......

[madaboutthe30]

So when are more images going to appear in the photo gallery?

That,s better.

[steve_k]

do you mean my car? or oakey's?

[sam325is]

Bk alpina reps.They look as nice as a burger king tastes!

Im being serious too.

[steve_k]

look's like i've opened a can of worms here.

just by the mere mention of BK reps!!!!

i'm sure i can hear in the distance ha ha.

[ImysE30]

Council is the way forward

As long as you are happy, that's all that matters

[suchy]

Do as you wish, council or trailer queen- it's your car and your hard earned ££
I think everyone has to council a car to get it out of their system

[suchy]

But BK Reps....????? That is COUNCIL!!!!

people who 'council' their cars always mention a low budget. how about instead of wasting a few quid on 'cheap' mods, either don't fit mods, or save up longer for decent ones.

a lot of 'council' mods are mods for the sake of modding. they may be cheap but they soon add up, and do nothing to improve the car. angel eyes are a personal pet hate of mine. sure, i can kind of see why the angel eye bit appeals, but are those light rings (which always look too far appart on an e30) really worth it when they make the headlights look really ugly. particularly tohe all in one units which give the front end a psychotic wide eyed stare, with crystal clear lenses exposing acres of cheap tacky chrome plating.

as you have said, it's your car, your money, your choice. do what you like, but why feel the need for a defensive post to point out the obvious?

[Stan318is]

I don't get this thread.

Why did you start a thread defending what you've done to your car? Nobody had commented on it, or told you what they would otherwise do.

You've now succesfully labelled your own car council though with this.

I'm sayin nothing.....

[mrLEE30]

i've proudly got blue angel eyes on my cab, you cannot see then during the day and are a cool blue at night.....council or not i like em!!
by day.. can you see em??


and by night a caped council crusader

[Kemlo]

not for me or my car, but I dont mind them.

[E30Gheko]

BMW built 2,339,248 E30's whilst they were in production. Nothing wrong with personalising yours IMHO.

[hongkongfuey]

dude have a look at mine then, (cotm council)

[ImysE30]

^^^^^ Perfect example if you ever needed one

[hongkongfuey]

i'm not finished yet either

[ImysE30]

Can't wait, I keep saying Council is the way forward

[E30Gheko]

HKF I've seen it and what a very fine specimen it is too! A worthy winner of CCOTM!!

[suchy]

I'm keeping a record of HKF's councilness for a thread update in the near future!! He's going for it in keeping with his current direction!!

right let me clear this up...........

the reason for my OP was just to get it out of my system before i put the pic's of the car up in the photo gallery.

cuz you know aswell as i do that as soon as folk see it there's gonna be the one's who label it so I GOT IN THERE FIRST.

if you read between the lines i really don't care if folk like the look of the car or not as it's my car not their's so it's up to me what i do to it.

i hope that has cleared things up & not just muddied the water's.

what do you class as council??? does that mean ' modded' as there are loads of cars that i've seen on here with 'tasteful bits' which i think are offencive, ie streached tires i think are horrible does that make it council or does it make it personal???
