My most complete E30 (The Chav) looks filthy and sad sat on my ex's driveway waiting for some tax in the spring and hopfully a bit of TLC before then. The M30 project is still a long way from being finished.....

After the crap I've had over the last few months I'm just thankful they still belong to me! :D
When I'm all sorted out they will get some loving again... :wink:

Spotted over the weekend that there is an immaculate bright red chromie in for some work at the same garage. I imagine my car is making lewd suggestions and shaking its booty up on the ramp :wink:

Mine is a a little grubby round the sills where road dirt has been thrown up. Lots of wax pre winter, will give it a wash maybe March time.

Not as bad as its retur from Le Mans a couple of years ago

Super soft/floppy brake pedal feel. I think its the NSF brake wheel cylinder leaking.
