I got all the bits fitted yesterday then took the car to KwikFit for a full hunter alignment. They didn't manage to do the rear, as they couldn't figure it out / something was seized. Something to do...
Just to keep things updated, the other day I replaced the fuel filter and bracket with new genuine items.
I also replaced the clamp on the fuel filler neck, again with genuine items as it was...
A couple of pics form Goodwood at the weekend, I gatecrashed a 'Bahn Stormers' Sunday Service :)
...
A good result there :) Any more progress?
Cheers, its certainly getting there.
Ordered £300 worth of bits from FRF including the cambelt/waterpump parts, bumper brackets and loads of random bits.
Also got a new battery on the way as...
Taxed & Insured, The M135i went back on Monday so I've just driven it home.
MOT and checkover on the 17th, cambelt, waterpump, de-cat and exhaust being fitted on the 20th - then it will be in use....
Looks great, you mentioned earlier in your thread about swapping the BCS for a later version. Is this a better part or were you simply replacing a failed unit?
Win all round, when you got your new grille did you have to re-use the diagonal? I don't think they come with that do they as they are non-genuine?
Cheers
Not yet no, as it hasn't been out of the garage for a while and the interior needs a clean :)
Yea, the one on the car had the leather peeled off and I wanted to be a bit different :)
Yep, just needed a bit of professional TLC :) Cheers
Looks a bit better than when I got it!!
Thanks, the M135i is leased and is going back (early) in a few months. The 850 is its replacement, ish.
This wife has this, but I'm tempted to get a matching pair again and get a V50 D5 or 2.0...
Thanks to a good friend I now have a freshly painted R front bumper, headlight trims that I smoothed and also re-painted mirror caps as they were scuffed!

To be honest I almost like the paintwork, get it on some super bling wheels and you are away!
Get it mechanically OK then clean, clean and clean?
Photos please!
Thanks, what about blue with red leather? This is my other car..

I meant price, sorry!
Hi all,
This is a bit of an introduction as I have had my T5 for a few months now and wanted to document some progress. I have been fairly poor with taking photos so far though as I've been...
What did you get one for? Group buy?
I'm in the same boat, had my 850 T5 a few months now and I'm sorting it out before I put it on the road. I also want an exhaust for looks but mainly sound and...
OK thanks, I will try and find it!
Where exactly is that little elbow? Underneath?
Yes please! I need loads of V70 bits!
