You don’t at all. Saw a black 172 in Baillieston a couple of days ago but didn’t catch the plate

Lovely blue 182 spotted in bearsden today. I was in a red z4

You’ve spent a fair whack on this car now! Will be a good buy for someone when you come to sell lol

Looks a bit washed out for me, needs more depth

Definitely different. Not sure what I think. Is there a link to the for sale ad?

Strange indeed! Might be old photos from another advert or something, would be seriously stupid if they did that. They’re maybe luring some other poor sod with cash somewhere to steal that too. Scum

Passed the mot today. 0 advisories! Happy with that

Agreed. Problem with sparkling graphite is that they didn’t do it as an LCI colour therefore you need to get everything painted which fair racks up the cost.

As above, he doesn’t reply on here. Contact him direct

You came for advice. Everyone’s advice is don’t do it? What’s your decision?

Not many jacks lift 2 tonne. You’re never lifting the full weight of the car on its own though..it’s either a corner or one side so the weight of the entire car doesn’t come into play. Your jack must be buggered unless you’re lifting hgvs!

Yeah still original. I think the chrome grills look good with the grey. On the Le Mans blue they can look a bit bling, think it’s the blue that sets it off

Proper council estate wheels!

They look shite, won’t suit the clio, will make it look ‘chavvy’ and it won’t ride well.

Bin them.

I pay £160 for 4, tyres removed and refitted and balanced. I am in Scotland though so most things are cheaper!

I’d also like to know how you find this out. The other half has a 2.5si z4 and it’s 2008 so potentially this engine also. It’s the n52 with a black cover..

What’s your rough mileage per tank? I’m n53 and around 360 miles for the tank

Really nice mate. They do ok on the motorway but round town you’ll get 24-26mpg at best lol

Very impressive. We don’t really get air shows up in Scotland

Great pictures mate. Have you a photography background?

Looks bloody mint to me! Just goes to show how good these engines are. Aren’t the most subtle but they are reliable when looked after

I preferred my cup to my trophy. Loved the seats even though they look shite. I do love the basic feel of a car. Loved my k11 micra too lol

It’s an easy diy too. Once you’ve worked out the first one the next takes minutes to get out and the new one in. Just take note of the order which the bits go together as I didn’t and it caused a bit of issue initially

The struts were from carparts4less £88 the pair The lower mounts and dust covers were off eBay, around £35 for all those bits. I would recommend getting new screws for the lower mounts if you’re gonna replace them as they rust quite badly

Should’ve just sourced one which I could have picked up! Let’s see how this goes with claiming against the seller/courier. I don’t have much hope. Cost £105

Don’t know why I do this to myself. Want to facelift the rear and bought a LCI bootlid and have been in contact with @gally to have the work done. The item arrived today (eBay). It’s heavily damaged. Both corners damaged, one very badly. There’s damage all over it even though it was described as...

Pulled the tips off and cleaned them up. I have no idea how they can get so much shite on them. They came up ok, I’d quite like new tips but more similar to the performance exhaust tips

The consent has been given from the owner to the garage. A garage would keep a car if the payment was not made. They risk being sued but I’m sure it’s all civil with this. Do you have any proof that you gave him the car? I would get a lawyer and get your car back

Also is it Marc Smith? Or Marc smit?
