Always loved these too. I'd love to own one, modified it's a beast!
must be some laugh to drive
edit: amazing job in the time you allocated. The interior looks new again
So the 5 series needs some paint as follows:
rear bumper
bootlid
2 deep scratches
car was pretty cheap to begin with so ideally I want a cheap job/homer. Anyone handy with paint in or around Glasgow?
Can't comment on FCS but I've never been overly impressed with car shows. I'd rather go to a transport museum.
Also in relation to the organisers. Let be honest, most couldn't give a f**k due to the fact they've sold the tickets etc
Cheers mate. Did the oil change. Not a massive improvement but the gearbox was slick anyways. Oil was proper rancid right enough, don't think it's ever been changed! How u enjoying it? I love mine, kind of wish id went for a touring mind. Extra cool points
Why the feck do they put the cover on the thing. Hardly matters anymore, no?
probably drove itself off the road, suicidal car after those modifications
I've already been in touch with companies and you effectively become an agent/reseller.
problem is I am unproven so my discount is very low at the moment. Especially on smaller orders. Obviously if I build it up my discount will become higher and the order size will be larger. Other issue is...
Cheers for the responses folks . It was more of an idea than an actual plan anyway. Always think I have the best ideas before dozing off to sleep.
i don't think id make much money at all, but would be a decent project
I couldn't afford to stock £150 waxes. I have a full time job and this would be something on the side. Just looking for input. I'm no business man. Just an idea.
So, I've been thinking about this for a while now. I can obtain a premise free of charge in Glasgow city centre. I'm no expert detailer but know a couple of bits and bobs.
My proposal would be to open a shop purely containing high end detailing products for enthusiasts like us. Good quality...
Yeah bmw are pretty shocking in that department as well as sales, half them don't have a clue about anything. I remember going in and talking away about one. I started talking about the auto box and his reply was.
'oh it seems like you really know what you're talking about, all I know is that...
Never really understood these cars at all. Be careful too as u know a guy that flipped his causing a punctured lung. He was on a long bend on a motorway.
I wouldnt touch ouch one with a barge pole
Awesome mate. Love when a car puts a proper grin on your face! Biggest grin I've ever had was in a mk2 focus rs. So much fun and occasion with pops, bangs, turbo spool etc etc
