I'm stuck here with no car for one week to get some paintwork, missing out on all this lovely weather.

Great timing :roll:

Well done, you both win a signed photo of me in my wafarers.8)

The bloody lever knob has a crack in it so it keeps falling off. I Have it in the glove box till i think of a suitable (not bodge) solution.

Sadly, like most E30 Recaro LS parts they are NLA. :cry:

I might do Gaydon, definitely Santa Pod and probably Bimmerflex as its local.

Try and do Santa Pod, its probably the biggest gathering of E30's in the country.

Looking good Barry, it will be good to see it on thursday hopefully in some daylight. I might do the July Bimmerflex, i'm planning on getting my turd ready for Gaydon. Bimmerflex is local to me.

No E30 for Ric. He had a black 52 reg 530i M sport but that went just before christmas to be replaced with a 59 reg E93 325d M sport convertible in space grey with red leather.

I still have the original italian plates for you car btw, found them in my garage on sunday. I'll bring them to Santa pod for you.
