sound good matey, any pics?

I have the same fault with the electric windows only working with the door open when the ignitions off, so I'm guessing it's a common problem.

You experience any problems with your clutch slipping after a lot of use? (i.e. stopping and starting)

Good motors these you'll prob see 350.000 miles before you start getting any engine probs matey.

My mate had a 7-40 with a gas conversion and that was verynice.

At the moment he has a E26 328i sport and a E26 M3 evo.

You'll have to get yourself over here for a meet.

pics of hi old motor

thanks for the kind words.nice beemer in d pics will get some of mine on asap,but the paint needs doing.
well got me exhaust fitted looks good just a simple oval (wanted a change from twin pipes)nice sound not to loud just a good burble

sounds nice,cant wait to see pics, i really like BMs now,great bit about them is theyve always been well equipped and now theyre getting cheap as chips. Ive found an E39 5 for just 3,300. i doubt u can get more car for ur money anywhere

See pics below.

Embrace the massiveness of those pics,car looks great mate. Still got a lot of class even tho its old. not sure about the steering wheel, but what it lacks in class it makes up for with its size

very nice, I likes it a lot.

I like the new wheels

Very smart, i love the way alot of peeps seem
to take such good care of there BMW's..

Or its it the car making it easier ?

Very tidy

hahahaha thanks for all the positive vibes,i know pics a bit big
but at least got em on.will post some of me install as soon as i tidied it up a bit

Nice indeed!
