Spent ages today cleaning up the car as to be honest it was in dire need of it. As you can see if came up pretty well! Just need to blacken the tyres and clean the seats and get some liquid leather to get rid of the cracks and it should be sorted. :D
Fitted some Pagid fast road pads tonight too so its been a pretty productive day and tomorrow Im gonna change the oil, coolant and power steering fluid.

Nice! 8)
Give the liquid leather a bit of time to work, last time i used the stuff i hauled my seats into my garden and spent an afternoon on em!
Pagid fast road pads were nice in my old 318iS , i had em on with their slotted discs too.

Cheers folks, the car could do with another good polish as there are some small scratches still which I want to take out but my arms are still sore from yesterday as the paint was so dry!

Cheers folks, the body is in good shape but the paint is getting a little thin and the car could do with a respray at some stage.
It looks mint from a couple of steps away, its only when you get up close you can see the little marks although the polish took most of them out. :)

have u lurked under the body kit yet? to see how the sills, lower bit of the wings and lower rear arch are? Pull your boot cover out as well and check the rear turrets, plus the battery tray. Most of these are sport rust spots mate.

Yeah I had a look round those parts and was pleasantly surprised as they all seem pretty good! Even in round the door hinges etc and top of the sills etc is like new.
