They where on an e28 5 ,They are remotec (german) 16" et16 wanted something different but similar to the original (and a bit of a dish) had to put 3mm spacers on the front though as they where catching the calipers. just need to get emblems for the centre but they are tiny (42mm) so finding it hard.

i polish it every couple of weeks as red is a nightmare for oxidising and looks dull very quickly especially the rear c pillars/boot spolier as they are plastic

You mean it's red with a black pin stripe.

Yep it was a 195(now minus the cat) spent most of its life in germany then england now ireland. engine rebuilt 30000 km's ago but had some head work, cams etc full system, previous owner claims it to be pushing bout 230bhp but until i put it on a rolling road i can't confirm have all the reciepts for the build to confirm work was done loads of history german log book etc

not going to do much at the moment have some cosmetics to fit though AC mirrors AC dead pedal and a z3 shifter, maybe next year might look at the engine as i have an alpina c2 1986 which i plan to restore(she a bit rough) this year hopefully but she needs quite a bit of work ,new rack,suspension, original manifold + exhaust plus a full respray engines sound though and the interior is perfect and has all the orignal bits where they should be. only worrying bit is the sills aren't great waiting for experts opinion as to are they to far gone.
