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 ![[Linked Image]](http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h287/donnatony/Picture016.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h287/donnatony/Picture015.jpg)

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

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
