I am the same, hence why mine is costing me more money at a faster rate than I planned! Two years worth of work planned and nearly done it all within 9months as it was annoying me having it not how I want. In the new year it will be suspension, interior and paint work left to do (paint can wait as that means I will have to look at the sills which I refuse to do).

Don’t leave it to long @KitsonRis

Paint work will be the final thing to do on it and I’ll probably get it resprayed when my M140i is returned so it will all be checked then. In the mean time I’m living in ignorant bliss!

Few pics of the interior with my nice wheel fitted

Also noticed mix match of seats as the release handles are black on drivers and blue on passenger. No idea if this is a early to late car thing, never noticed before....

Amazing how neglected most of the phase 1's have been , more than likely due to not being worth much for years. But seems there falling into the right hands now . Hope you save it come mot time , looks much better allready 😎

Yeah I know the feeling , but to be honest you could probably leave it sitting and watch the price of it rise ? If you've the space I suppose

Alas driveway full currently and not in a position to rent storage really, we'll see though if it passes can just keep it on road and use it!

How are you getting on mate? That driveway looks like it ready to be extended into the garden

Finally got round to checking behind my rear door cards today and not too bad all things considered. Bit ypu can see where my one side has been repaired and like the other guy said be careful not to leave too long, they like to rust there!
