[Sir_Dave]

Oh yeah, cant wait to pick her up now ... and if you see a Dave F for sale anywhere, let me know

Just out of interest, did you fit your Sportlines/Prolines yourself - if so, when the time comes, would you be able to help me out for beer tokens?

Wasnt really a plan as such, just kinda stumbled across it lol - pics will come once i've picked it up and cleaned it. Current pics make it look like a right shed tbh

Will look like this after some tlc hopefully.

 

[Tom@JMS]

oh baby lovely colour. Get it mint like the fella at the rolling road and I will be tres jealous. Does it drive well? mileage?

 

[Sir_Dave]

Drives nice from what i could tell on the short test drive - it was raining lots ... mileage wise, its fairly intergallactic compared to what im used to at 125k, but seems ok, no rattles lol

 

[Tom@JMS]

mate its deutsch, it'll run forever if its got a good service history lol. When you picking it up?

 

[Sir_Dave]

Hopefully this weekend

[seb]

[Daniel]

I love E36's. I saw one the other week that looked quite smart. Turns out it was for sale.

Approximately 3 minutes later I was driving it away! LOL!!

They are awesome cars. Anyone wanna buy it??

 

[seb]

not as mint Jon said you were looking at FCS!

 

[jon_r]

oh you tease.

 

[seb]

Jon, why did you sell this car? I was talking to my dad about cars and we were chatting about his old e36 328i touring which he loved.

 

[jon_r]

I'm not sure why I sold it Seb. I think the mileage it had and I was doing scared me.

Its still in use, caged and seated. M3 running gear.

Owned by a Guy named Craig on M3Cutters who killed his CSL at the ring?

 

[Wick]

Wow, I've never seen this before. Stunning!

 

[MarkCup]

I remember you taking me around the Bovingdon tank facility in this Bavarian beast.

Memorable.

 

[jon_r]

yeah Craig owns it now. We know each other through Northloop forum. He had it virtually completely resprayed and then magazine featured. Sadly he had a prang in it though and considered binning it, but ended up repairing it. It's half purple now though because of the donor parts.

That was a great day.

 

[jon_r]

You've brought back memories Seb.

 

[MarkCup]

That was a great day.

It was indeed.

Any chance Major Jim will arrange another or is he too busy writing and/or racing these days?

 

[jon_r]

No longer in the army Mark. Now co-running Mission Motorsport doing noble things.

Btw, catch you in Cobham in a couple of weeks. Dusting off the 172 and giving it a run. First movement since Goodwood.

 

[jon_r]

Shouldve kept it, even on 168k

 

[Rob]

First pics in this thread make me dewy tbh.

 

[jon_r]

I'm still chuckling at the black Clio earlier in the thread. I bought with my ex, we split up about 4 months later and I got stuck with it. It never ever got washed, or driven sympathetically, or cared for in the slightest. I even hit a Deer with it and bodged the repair. Sold it as soon as the finance became viable.

lol.
