Ive just picked this up it will be my hack about for work and tip runs, the kit is genuine, it has a few imperfections on it but on the whole its good, grey leather recaros ( bit tatty ) and koni adjustables up front. Other than that standard, go on then tell me what you think.

I'd be replacing the engine first :chuckle:

Or at least getting rid of that M badge :P

Still, it's the sweetest 316 I've ever seen :cool:

looks quite sweet - not sure about the 'sweetest 316 i've ever seen' zayyan.

with a de-chrome and de-red drums it'll look very sport indeed.

also spotted a white one (your sport?) a red one and a lowered grandad on alloys!

i like all of those! the grandad sits really nicely - looks better than they used to when they were current!

your white one looks as sweet as they come. i'd love to see pics of the interior and engine too.

so whose is the black capri that's turned up?

Saw it with the wheels on at my house mate, looks a lot better! You must have done the dechrome today or somthing, that looks a lot better.Seein as i dont do anything, bung her down mine one day if your working mate and ill clean it all up if you want.Not saying its dirty or anything :P I think all that coal from the engine might have somthing to do with it!!
