My uncle was about to sell his e reg 325i soft top to some kosovan bloke for Ԛ£650! no mot and tax mind you but i convinced him it was more! so he's given it to me to clean/kit up for next summer! Had to see off the kosovan dude who randomly just knocked at my uncles door offering him the money even when the car wasn't for sale!!! After he left(and threatened to poke my eyes out, lol) I took the beemer home. So now I am a proud temporary owner of a 325i with no mot, no tax, ripped cabhood, wet carpets and leathers(4 years of standing mould, leaves and god knows what).....and i haven't even looked under the bonnet yet! Thanks for reading my introduction!!! I thought it be a good idea to join the forum to learn and share my next few months of trial and tribulations with my beemer!!!
