these e30 tourings seem to be especially bad for gathering dirt on the back door.black and white cars seem to be the worst to keep looking clean.

Get involved in some more "mudsplatting" on the no. plate and keep the damn nasty welsh police cheif a bit worse off.

Car still looks good even with the mud by the way. :D

Very very nice sound, very deep and burbly when booting it, but it can be quiet when you want it too, it's not boomy at all.

Sebring are very expensive, I paid Ԛ£375 for the back box alone, but the quality of finish is worth it. Sal can get them much cheaper than this though, see the zone shop forum, there's a post near the top.

P.S. Happy 10,000th post!! :mad:
