I've been in that tourer a few months back and it's a good one, those wheels just finish it off, very nice :D

How are you getting on with the wide rears?

It's a work in progress - only had it on the road 1 day since I collected it as I've been fitting the Sport leather, rear electric windows etc. in between trying to earn a living.

Yes they were Jimbob's rims. I modified them to enable them to fit an e30.

Yep my father-in-law works for Hella. Hella UK import 1 set of smoked lights at a time as the demand is too low. RRP on them is now £750! 8O

Clear indicators will be getting swapped for smokies (and clear bulbs... :roll: ), exhaust will be sold and something more subtle fitted.

Next it's going into the bodyshop to get the arches pulled out, then it will get coilovered into the weeds and then the engine transplant will start.

Looks superb Ste 8) .

My missus hates tourings, including mine but thought yours looked "cool - I like that".

I officially hate you.

Hi Karan, I've got an M52b28 to go in. Planning for about 250bhp from it, not silly but useful enough and lightweight.

Andy I haven't got the M5 anymore - took a few pictures of it just before it went to it's new owner: Click. I'd recommend one though. That was my second and they really are awesome cars for the money.

More pics of the Estate here: Click. Since those I've just fitted red rear lights and silver bulbs.

Aaaaaaah, so THAT'S where the gorgeous Hartge's ended up. Glad they've gone to a good home where there'll be appreciated. 8)

Should have some BK's on there instead though... winkeye
