After 2 weeks of not getting round to uploading a photo, I've taken the whole 5mins to get one up!

After looking at a complete pile of a cab, I saw this, and just couldn't say no!

Only a 320 unfortunately! :o:
But has only done 73k, has loads of history, including the original bill showing all the MTEC kit / interior / wheels / suspension all factory fitted :)

It's seriously the cleanest looking old car I've seen! (is an 89). Not a spot of rot on it! :D well chuffed!

Only plan so far is to loose the exhaust, in exchange for something which fills the gap slightly... And then perhaps drop something else in there instead of the 2.0, but that won't be for a while!

Going to change the oil/filters, spark plugs and that this weekend... And get the cambelt changed in the next month... As although the service book is all stamped, it's not all BMW, and they don't detail what they've done!

looks like a nice solid car, have you had it up on ramps yet to check the underside?

Nope, nowhere near Reigate, well, am in West Sussex... About 10 away from Brighton...

Only bad bit is the roof, as I said in the other post... Going to have a chat to a chap tomorrow about that! :D

Looks great mate, shame its a 320 but that can be fixed a lot easier than a rusty shed of a sport
