Well done Ali. Remember seeing the pic of the car when you first bought it.
When are we sorting out a meet again?
Good right up mate.

Awesome read. I've never made it a secret that the V6 doesn't float my boat visually, but that's personal taste, and the car is a credit to you and your care for it. PMSL at annual paint costs though, such a bender! Personally, I'm more of a drive it than look at it kind of bender, but each to their own. Love the BMW by the way, even though I still think the front end makes it look half asleep 
V6 is a love it or hate it car. You're right. If you hate it, you'll never like, at best you'll learn to appreciate it for what it is. "A bonkers, mid engine clio!"
I'm the same as you, i drive the car to the limit, it's been on track....douzen odd times, been to ring. But at the same time, i still like it looking pampered! There's the difference.
Bm's a wee cracker, ironically i never loved it to start with...But it is a crackin bus!

Totally different, in so many ways.. What sort of experience are you looking for out of a car?

Fantastic write up Ali, she looks spot on. Does she do speed bumps regarding lowering her? They only just manage them on standard suspension!
No issues with speedbumps, although i tend to avoid them! Where you have tufts for a lack of a better word in the middle of the road and a road which is very well used, sometimes you scrape the middle!!! (I've got a good shine on the underside of mine)
I'm glad people are taking something from the write up! More to come next year.

Just a quick question, you state that the refurb cost for the front bumper and bonnet is an annual cost why is that?

thought it would be that, but needing to do it every year is a bit much.... I suppose if your car is a keeper than you'd do it..
For sure you don't have to, but at a couple of hundred quid it's penny's for keeping the car looking spotless!...
