My DS2500's never squealed, although tbf neither do my CL's ... Shims out. Pads in. I never filed them, perhaps someone else did (pikey 2nd hand pads ftw).

Oh Phil, i did tell you this months ago .... ROFL at the toe in, that must have driven like a bag of sh1t!!

Ill prob bring down the Trophy, or maybe the M3 ...

Maybe. If someone wants it they can have it. But If not, ill strip all the s3xy bits off & stick it in hibernation for a couple of years ... Im not bored of the car, but feel that without going racing, the challenge of FWD on track isnt the same anymore, so fancy my hand at RWD. Ive also had...

Quite a good idea. People on here also need to remember that people that actually still use the Renault dealer network will (mostly) be fairly inexperienced in mechanicals anyway, so they arent really going to know whether the service is good/well done/well priced. So feedback, on the whole...

An M3 is <£10k, an RS4 is >£20k.

No, the RS4 is very very good, so i would think: M3/RS4 (Avant please) v Anything else v Merc auto barge

Luke - is yours the only car from that trip that is still running? Guppys, just before the pikeys came ...

lol, Steve is waaay cooler. He has a CSL. Which leads to my next question, what the hell are BMW doing to it? M3 saloon is herospec btw.

Looks lovely, would have preferred black leather though. As Daniel says though, get a new wing, they rust from the inside out, so making it look pretty on the outside will not solve the problem ;)

I'm doing about 25k a year now, mostly driving back & forth to work. Living with Sarah now means that driving at the weekend is now quite limited. Re: how long i intend to keep it, no idea, depends on quite a few factors really, although im not a fan of loosing a great deal on depreciation ...

Most definitely more grumpy than the S50 in the Z3M as well i reckon!! Its just ticked over 93k Phil, so much lower mileage than some of the other ones i looked at - had Insp 2 & new f/r discs & pads less than 3k ago as well. Does need two front tyres though ... And *Badger*, as soon as...

Ha ha, if i had a £1 for everytime someone had said that today, well, i could probably afford a bit more fuel ... Re: the Trophy, i'll probably decide at Christmas what i want to do with it (when the ins runs out) - depending on how expensive running the M3 is, it will either be stripped of...

Its down in the BMW Individual catalogue as FRP Purple iirc ... I just wanted to be you :o

330 is very very smooth, & deceptively fast - you just waft along really, although it is quite fun to hustle down a backroad. Gearbox & clutch are quite light & altogether, its pretty easy to drive, whether you want to dawdle, or fly along. In comparison, the M3 is a rather grumpy, angry kind...

Yup. Thats the main reason why i wanted an M3 tbh, i can commute in it, but it still offers enough thrills to be my only car ... Well yes, Sarah's not an entirely happy bunny, but we're not buying for 9-12 months, so i've a little while to build it back up again, ie not eat. lol, yeah, been...

Nah, its Velvet Blue, similar to Techo Violet (which is also v. rare) but quite a bit more purpley. Ha ha, thought you might say that :rasp: Everything i said before about M3's via pm, ignore that, the previous one i drove was clearly a nail. Flipping epic car. ITB's. As standard. FTW.

Annexe is the the choice of hero's/lunatics, so you'll love it over there Naith ;) I for one, like the ruddy great big fence, electricity, & hot showers of Houx. Oh, that & the fact that its considerably closer to Dunlop, The Esses & Tetre Rouge than your last place lol!!! Needed sodding hiking...

:race: Well, after wanting one for the past 8 years (2 of my mates at uni had them) & essentially saying 'M3' on here for the past few months, i finally manned up & bought one. Well, thats not strictly true as i wanted one before i went to Thailand, but couldnt find one that ticked all the...

Officially the best post on this forum, ever :) All photos now fully restored, & backed up, again!!! Thanks guys.

Oh, not that bad tbh, an extra £220, for 5 months ... cheaper with Sarah on there as well. She doesnt need to know that though ;) Quotage sounds good, depending on monies, i.e. how badly it consumes Tesco99, i may also look to get a few other odds & sods done, if im buying the paint, etc ...

Ooft. Got spoiler. /p**n.

Not quite yet, need to find some money for 2 new tyres 1st lol ... Admiral r4ped me this morning as well. Bum still hurts now :(

lol, i wish, its our sodding Thailand Photo's ... all 2 thousand of them!! Same. It would appear that i am offically the Alfa Romeo of the partnership. FYI - Windows 7 doesnt seem to have set any restore points. FFS.

Yeah, checked the recycle bin - nothing in there. Whats also more strange, is that i backed them all up to the work network as well - not there either. Waiting for IT to get in so we can see if they were saved in a daily backup, etc, but wanted to see if there any any 'hidden' files on my...

Lets say i have accidently deleted 4GB of photos on my laptop, from a once in a lifetime holiday last month. Is there any way of getting them back :dapprove:

If im honest, i prefer the look of a standard M Sport, with the 18's. But im an old tw4t.

Ha ha, double plan!! Re: Wagamamas. Im in .... nom nom nom .... PS. Collecting ///My purple throbbing monster tonight now. Hai x

Or, we could just remove Nick's engine, then go to the pub?

Lol ;) www.bmwsport.net
