my misses sister was offered this 87 320i cab automatic in navy blue, cream leather but beleive me where it had been sitting in a garden for about a year it was looking in a real bad way and being the wannabe wag that she is it just wasn't cutting the mustard...... then i found out the fella only wanted £800 and seeing as he was a close family friend i got on the case....
when i went to view the car my self i was amaized at how clean the shell was not a spot of rush anywhere, and under the dirt dust mould and grime the paint wasn't in bad shape either, and to my surprise this was no longer a 320i it was a 325i with only 114000 on the clock..... then the monment of truth what does it drive like...... bang it started first time no probs and the auto gear change on unreal this car was so quick.. looking round inside i could see that the interior could do with some work but i didnt see that as a problem..and the best bit the roof was mint look like it was new no leaks rips or tears its manual still looks the part haha ... i was sold and the car was bought...£700 nice
ok no tax or mot but it sailed though no problem only needed no break pads abd a number plate light bulb....
well after a good clean and two hours mopping the boot lid this is how my new pride and joy look...... sweeeeet

i was made up with how it cleaned up... does need a few bits done on the paint but it will probally get treated to a new paint job this month....
Then another result came my way.. a mate thats well into drifting got a cheap set of 15" split five spokes that where in a bad was and white... nasty but to my advantage they ended up not fitting his car after him stropping out for about 20min we finally settled on me having them for £20..... nice
i set to work on them that day.... sanded, prept and sprayed silver with a hit of blue in the finish they look mint... ok for 20 quid
while the wheels were off i decided to paint the breaks in gold i know its not the coolest thing to do but they needed something cos they looked ropey...
So after the week was up my new bitch is looking in a sweet retro 80@s kinda way and i love it.............
look forward to meet all you guys and gals soon atthe next meet and as i have seen you lot all seem to know what your talking about when it comes to fixing stuff got loads of tips so far.... whats with the indicator thing... nightmare hahaha bbut still this is my new project as my 316i E36 as looking the part but i had my fun with that i just felt it was time to say goodbye.... have fun j...
