Dont expect to be doing to much to it, but I do want to do a couple of little things to it wink

Already ordered some clear indicators and repeaters, and Ill also be looking for a set of M3 17" wheels for it...

Ill also be looking for a chip for it in the near future, these lift the power to around 180bhp laugh

Looks like a nice clean motor anyway.

Lol, think this one will be around for a while smile

The Honda was just something that just caught my eye while I was looking for one of these.

The BMW may noy be as quick as the Honda, but it gives better MPG, drives much nicer and is much more comfortable - Honda was a very nice car, just not my thing confused

Just been looking at Chips and Power Boxes for the car.

Basically all the fueling and boost is ECU controlled, and a powerbox increases the fueling to give more power but can cause black smoke - these are approx £170

However, for a few more ££ you can get a bespoke chip fitted and mapped which will not only increase fuel, but will also increase boost to get rid of excessive black smoke - these are said to give 30+ bhp think

Nice car Stuy! Wot did you give for it? Is it the 325tds? The intercoolers on them are very small and it is a useful mod to upgrade them in conjunction with a live re-map/chip...

Found some M3 Motorsport wheels for it over the weekend smile

All good tyres, but they where cheap as they could do with a new coat of paint. There is only one or 2 minor scuffs on them, so a quick flat and paint should do the job without any welding / filling.
