Ch ch ch ch changes Looks very fine, Chris.

[spook]

It will be when its sorted Fi.

Good you Chris, its an involved repair but really just alot of nuts and bolts and some good welding and the correct protection afterwards for a lasting repair which will add to the value as the job is done. I'd rather be doing that than a load of nasty electrical repairs where some arsehole had fitted an alarm and bodged up ice installs etc

Black on red epic, i saw an estoril one this week. I can't remember the last time i saw on the roads, looked as good as ever.

[spook]

Cheers Simon,lots to do but i got it cheap enough, Bazza had the valuation right when i spoke to him on the blower the other week,that is what i offered and he accepted,wise words from Pete as well.

This place is full of good advice on all things BMW

That boot floor is proper!!

Is the plan to get it fixed in time for late summer? They aren't the most pleasant things to drive in winter.

[spook]

Will be done ASAP Jon, and car will be used up until the Winter.

So these have a similar issue to the E46 with boot floor cracking?

Totally different floor/axle mounting design but they crack for the same reason.

[spook]

Bazza did you say there was a strengthening kit available ?

[maxfield]

Reddish Motorsport do a kit for the E46, maybe they do one for the Z3 too?

Very cool car. Serious handful on a wet day.

[spook]

Check out the end of the Slave Cylinder ffs

You've narrowed the fault finding down then?

[spook]

[jimbom30cab]

Have fun Rob

[spook]

It was very nasty

[pacerpete]

Chris , if you were a proper Zoner, you would go around to the sellers gaff with a Zone posse and an4lly gape the coooont until he coughed up the price of a clutch Job . Obviously you would post pics of the deed to satisfy the baying masses and Gert / Ross / Rav

Sh1t happens with old turdz, though it is bad luck for it to happen on the way home from collecting one On a positive note, at least your carpets are dry and your bulkhead is intact

[spook]

Yeah shit happens Pete but and the end of the day i know i will have a car that's pretty much up together,and i will not have an never ending battle against rust
