my aunt drove her vw sharan with no MOT for about 7 months lmao she forgot that it ran out, when she booked it in (thinking that the mot is almost out, when its been out for ages), the tester pointed out to her that her mot was finished almost 7 months ago LOL in my opinion, extremly lucky

i have instructed the bloke that he will do whatever it takes to get it through. rear axel bushes, slightly corroded near side brake pipe, headlamp aim, due to the engine haveing so many oil leaks(hence the engine swap) he will have to adjust the co to get it through, i just want this @ucking 325 to be rebuilt, leak free, new gaskets, might even take the head to norwich engine centre and have new rings and valves re seated, also a de coke. gotta have patience!

the story doesnt end there my friend, then its off to the body shop for new inner+outer arches on the rear, plus the petrol filler neck needs attention. i have spent allot of money on this 320/325. all the parts the bloke will be useing for the engine rebuild will be genuine bmw parts. oh well, there is no point in being the richest man in the grave yard.

i live quite far away from some zoners that would be able to do the job, i would be quite happy to line a zoners pocket if the job was done right and to a high standard! if anyone feels that they are up to the job by all means get in touch with me.Grim_Reaper wrote:is that cutting and welding a new arch??? why not ask a zoner to help you out with the welding for a few bear tokens???e30bmlover wrote:it wants to be lol! iv got a 1k budget for the engine. will proberbly be looking at £300 - £400 per side for the rear arches.Grim_Reaper wrote: awsome...sounds like your bimmer is gonna be mint once finished
