No, well... made a start at stripping it down.

I'll wait for motivation in seeing Theo's beast go to put it back together

Theo has ventured up from kent countryside into the city. I suspect M3 progress will slow down..

i said i'd get my M3 done by the time i was 30.......

that was 18 months ago

Progress today, and an incredible stroke of luck.

I got hold of a matching facelift e30 black leather Recaro seat (people with good memories may remember that the original drivers seat was damage after the fire brigade chopped the back off it)

It's the same Bison leather, in fact the sticker on the underside shows that it was assembled just 22 days after my passenger seat!

I'm incredibly chuffed, i thought i'd either have to downgrade to the spare pair of standard M3 front seats I have or shell out for costly repairs and have the hassle of re-assembly.

Can't wait to see progress on this Theo. Still wish i had got to this car before you!

Post Sun Dec 02, 2012 5:52 pm

The update is that there is no update.

Post Tue Feb 12, 2013 10:37 am

What are you doing with your time?

Post Wed Feb 13, 2013 9:07 am

Too busy with work. Unlike you I'm not living at the family home so I can't spend my evenings polishing the internals of LSDs etc

Post Wed Feb 13, 2013 10:18 am

Family home? My parents moved to Paris over two years ago now..........

I guess your too busy working to pay off the loan your Dad gave you for the car?

Post Wed Feb 13, 2013 10:29 am

Despite not being Scottish, my dad is a tight b*stard and would never loan me money.

Have you booked your annual trackday yet?

Post Wed Feb 13, 2013 10:38 am

You told me your dad lent you the money as this car was an investment that you had to complete quickly to sell on at a huge profit?

No not yet, I have an S14 ring track day coming up towards the end of the year but nothing is yet confirmed, need to finish the car off, lots of new bits.

DN are getting very greedy asking £750 and £50 for additional drivers and £25 per passenger, so I wont be going on their days!

We have enquired how much it costs to rent the ring for the day and its actually very cheap! ;)

Post Wed Feb 13, 2013 10:53 am

You really do talk nonsense. If anything, my student loan paid for this!

How much does the ring cost for a days rental?

Go on, you know you want to

Post Wed Feb 13, 2013 11:15 am

I may want to but I might also want to go to one of his events which are better value for money in the near future

Post Wed Feb 13, 2013 1:13 pm

I believe the price is fair. Sod doing tf, just stuck behind slow numpties all day.

Post Wed Feb 13, 2013 1:17 pm

No way, it doesn't even include the pits or the F1 circuit! Having to send emails all year to find out where everyone was being parked and only those that paid more were in the main car park, everyone else was in the gravel traps is not what I call value for money. We were lucky as our cars were not road legal and thus we could have been stopped by the police crossing the round about to get in.

DN clearly want to get rid of people turning up with trailers who put them on the map and attract a higher brow track driver with Ferrari's, GTR's, Porsches, Evo's etc
