Awesome. I would imagine that it will become very tiresome very quickly. They were horrifically unreliable when they were new!

People like me save for it. People like you just buy it using all the excess cash you have from last months pay cheque. #housefullofmahoganyandleatherbooks

Lol @ 'saving'.

This! It's not worth the grief.

It'll be free in a minute! I can't stop looking at it, it's cool as f**k.

My mates just bought some 7.5 litre yank monster. It's a 4 door saloon but it has a bigger footprint than my house! Lol I absolutely love anything like this though. Proper proper love it.

He does seem like one of life's good guys. You're very lucky to have him on your doorstep. I'd have told you to f**k off.

@DB. Buy yourself a litre of iron-X. New BMW's have a habit of being covered in fall out.

Me too. It seems a really common design.

Soak it in acid, leave it for 10 minutes then go at it with a Brillo pad. Wear rubber gloves!! You will get it off, it just takes time and patience.

BMW diesels of that era love to s**t their timing chains so check it's had any necessary work done. New tensioner/chain etc.

BOOM! Yes, I did own it. I sold it to a mate who blew it up. I told him the belts were 2 years overdue and the dephaser was rattling it's tits off, but he knew best.... It's now at another mates garage with no engine in it. I'll get a pic next time I'm there.

Silver, lowered, ph2 door strips and bullets, Skoda Fabia splitter. Done.

There's overspray on the seals??

By hitting him repeatedly in the face. with pebbles.

Not all kids are t***s.

I've got loads of cleaning bits left over from work. You have spurred me to photograph it all and sell it. It's doing nothing in the garage!

When I went to town on it, I polished it with G1, SRP and then waxed it with Zymol Carbon. Looked f**king awesome. If you're not one for much cleaning though, I recommend polishing it with the DA and then give it a good coat of Hydr02. Makes car washing for the next 6 months a piece of piss!

I hate gold wheels and I hate OZ wheels. But your car looks bloody lovely!

I'm 99% sure I've owned this car at some point... *goes to check photobucket....*

Put it on autotrader for £995. It will be gone by next weekend.

What do you mean when you say it won't brake in a straight line? And as for front/rear bias, the rears do so little im surprised you can tell a difference. Even on a standard 172 cup, an MOT test usually reveals that rear brakes are doing so little that they're technically not working. What...

Yes mate, I usually spend £500 a week! I may or may not have sneaked some 'extras' in there for me...

15 bags of 36 microfibre cloths Wheel cleaner, 50 litres of Tfr 5 wash mitts 5 boxes latex gloves 25 triggers and bottles 25L of tyre dressing 25L of tardis 12 bottles of AF Triple 2L of iron out 15 polishing sponges That should do until next Monday...

If you'd have filled your airbox up with sand, it would have brought all that up like brand new.

Just buy the cheapest springs you can. Whatever you fit, one of your standard shocks will burst within a month anyway. I'd strongly advise against fitting 60mm lowering springs. Wait a bit longer until you can afford a cheap set of coilovers.

The new LED ones?? They're f**king ridiculous. I'm not sure how they can be legal? I'm sure they're brighter than my cars full beam!
