So much that you now still pay them to do your work !
neva sed i know that much tho
i neva have the time tbh to do it and i know its in reliable hands if i give it to b and r see.
that along with the fact i havnt had the car long and i want to know everything that needs repair so i can stay on top of things.
i havnt actually payed them to do any work for me yet ive just got parts from them so far and done the work myself.

Scott325se I dont suppose it was you in the black 325i sport about a year ago that i lost a drag to in the dark and the wet on the a470 north road near the m4 coming into cardiff? - i watched it squat and the lsd squirm all over the road - lush car. I cant remember what i was driving, maybee a red auto.

OK. So there is a good few welsh E30's.
Who is going to organise the South Wales Meet and where is it going to be?
and don't say Splot, because I really like my wheels.
Somewhere around Bridgend would be nice.

If it was summer I would recommend the heads of the valleys road. Give some of you city boys a real road to drive on for a change

Whoa quite a few of us on here then!
Im from cyncoed, and looking to get another e30 soon. Would be great if we get some meets organised!
Also theres a sneaky car park by the dorms of Uwic cyncoed, if any one wants to have some sideways fun

You're close to me. Are you at Uwic or do you just go there to abuse their tarmac? Haven't seen your touring around...

ha, I've not got anymore room on driveway sadly lol, what e30 you got now then?
And as for meets, what about the Toby carvery at J30? gets used for the monthly jap meets the manager welcomes us, they put the garden heaters on for anyone outside, nice and comfy inside good food etc...only problem is there is a roundabout close by which leads to an empty large car park, don't know if that will put any off...

only a 318i but its so clean. not even tapping yet and i kno thats common for m42 engines. mines on 155000 and still runs sweet as a nut
dont think the large car park and roundabout will put anyone off. more than likely it will distract em haha

I can have a word with the manager and get a monthly bmw meet sorted if people like the venue, she'll be happy to do it i reckon as long as we don't leave rubbish in the car park etc (it's a decent size too)
