From 3rd pic down I can kind of see what Dave means. However, I think it looks fantastic. Just ordered 12mm H&R spacers for mine.

My old 182. Standard alloys refurbed in black. Eibach sportlines fitted.

Lol. Too much vodka for breakfast.

Yeah just googled it. Awesome. Will order tomorrow, fook I'm excited, hope it works.

Yeah that looks good. How does that sh*t work though, do you spray on? I'm guessing by the name you dip it in? The chrome is attached to the rear window so removal a problem.

You're right to be scared! I've had to clean them a few times tho i do like the inerior to be peachy. Passenger seat seems to get dirtier more quickly. Maybe i should buy my girlfriend some better quality jeans. Interesting. I'll look into that. Do it! We can go convoy, tho you wouldn't keep...

Yup. Careful what you read with some of figures banded about also. I've read people quoting 40mpg on a commute. I did a straight run from Southampton to Manchester, little to no traffic, averaging 70 mpg and recorded 34.5.

I'd guess 30/31. To give you an idea i set the trip last Sunday to measure how far it to my sisters new house (2 miles incidently). The car has now done 155 miles since i set it and is sitting on 29.4mpg. I've used it for work 3 times and my girlfriend twice. Hers is 5 miles each way, all small...

Lol, not much love for the chrome. I don't notice it as much now ('til i see a black one series with shadowchrome trim and it pains me).

Marc wins surely?

Bavaria is amazing. I've been there about 15 times now. It took me a while to work out exactly what was different about the roads, but it's that they don't have any hedges/barriers at the side of the roads. It's just open, flowing tarmac where you can see for miles. I always wanted to take the...

I'm running it on Shell V-power and it's made a massive difference over normal. I know some people doubt, and in the clio it made bugger all difference, but i'm now averaging 29 versus 25 on normal. I mainly commute on motorways, but that's inclusive of heavy traffic and weekend/evening runs...

I would love to remove the chrome. But, have been quoted £300+ to get it wrapped and it's apparently £500 to remove and change to shadow chrome. I did try electrical tap. Never again.

What he says Standard on the 130i LE. Special edition with 160 produced. Comes with BMW 216 wheels, lemon leather interior, carbon black paint. I have seen a 3 series with them tho, i was sorely tempted to steal his BMW 'Motorsport' stickers!

(warning - apologies for horrendous pics) Just recently returned from a trip to southern Germany. My fianceé is German and went to collect her mum who was gonna stay with us for a while. Caught the Eurotunnel to Calais and stayed a night in Reims. Beautiful city. Stopped at the Reims-Gueux...

Good job on that paintwork. Black grills on black car = win.

I was in one in Madiera. In a sunny climate I'd have over a scooter. In England, no.

Looks well. Any reason you went for this over the 130i?

Great vid, i enjoyed that. Would love to test drive the car on some of those roads.

I was behind you in the 130 after you cut me up at the roundabout ;) Couldn't really see you in the mirrors but those lads that walked in front of you at the lights obviously thought you were hot, lol :o.

Those 527's are awesome! Are you on Nutz? MX5_CL was rocking those for a while. That'd be my inspiration for a red 5.

Lol. Though waaaay too much skin for a skeleton...

If you're after a cheap wheel initially 3DSM's aren't so bad. We got ours for £300. Copies of XXr's i guess but 15x8 et12.

^^ Yup, that looks pretty well like that! Must admit i much prefer the OEM splitter to the G Vary one.

Lol, it looks bloody knackered. That's the best thing about 5's tho, little money to get them looking sweet. I hope you're better at building ramps than i am. Me and the Mrs took an hr, half a broken fence and about ten bricks before we could fit our 'low' Halfords jack underneath ours.

RB 182 & a 172 cup (tho could have been an arctic 182) which looked stunning. I was with the Mrs in the mx5.

I actually really love this shape. Bet it goes well.

Lol. With the tinted windows especially I just find them a bit chavtastic. Or just a bit washed out.

I quite dislike yellow cars.
