Oh, I would of loved all those but rare and out of budget.
I really wanted a black one. Like mega bad. I went to see this one, was awesome spec, but condition was pretty poor :(
Not really, just tidy it up. The next few months will probably help me decide on if I keep it or not. If I don't need an auto, I'll be getting shut, and buying a manual ;)
Have you decided on a spec that you want yet?
Yep, took me a while and had to compromise on a couple of things. I said I would rather have a tidy one that a rough one.
I was going to say that, but didn't want to seem like a mong.
Ta. Not sure if I said, but I'll be putting my private plate on in March, so I'll have new plates for...
HA! I read the first few posts in that thread, but I just saw the M3 Badge and dismissed it.
Yeah, realoem and bmwfans are common sites that I've been checking parts on.
Dave. You. Are. Awesome.
How did you find/get that? Have you got a copy of TIS?
I need to replace my thermostat, but I've averaged 22MPG over 150 miles. When the stat is done, should see that at about 24/25MPG average.
Motorway runs should see you more, but I hardly ever do long runs.

I can't argue that a Manual would be more fun, but the Auto is still very nice to drive. I love sticking it in Sport mode to overtake and watching it rev all the way to 7k. Full auto, is a bit lazy unless you use the 'kick-down' to tell it to pick its feet up. Then it really does start to move...
Yeah, I think I know what you mean. The problem is, I think the 17s are too small, 18s are just right. Never thought I would say that.
The 68s, in 17" only just clear the front brakes as well! Lol!
I'm going to ignore that. MV2's are awful. I think a few people would be surprised at how good the auto box is. Besides, it wasn't an option, it was a must.
Cheers for you help as well!
I do fancy MV1's its just finding a set that doesn't need refurbishing with decent rubber for the right price. I forgot about LED rears too, they're on my 'to-do' list.
As some of you probably know I sold the Trophy at the end of last year due to medical conditions. I would of loved to of kept it but sometimes you just have to move on, for a better cause. Anyway I sold the car to Neil/withoutabix which was great, as I get to see its progress and finally see it...
I personally didn't however the previous owner had braided lines on it, and the garage I bought it from took them off, so would have bled the system again.
Some pics/info here mate:

If you go to his profile, you can see all his posts etc.
That was Niall and James. Not sure if he would of got any decent ones, due to the lack of light. Looks like he was playing with boffeys car and some lighting effects.
