    The new addition to the fleet!










    Why not?! LOL! It's something I've been considering for quite some time now, and when this one came up for sale locally, I had to have it. It has pretty much every option including a sunroof, and even the electric rear blind. Full BMW history, 84k on the clock, very nice condition (not showroom by any stretch, but still very nice). However an Inspection 2 is due now. But at £9k I considered it to be a pretty decent bargain. As a general rule, after months of looking at these, you need to be in the £10k+ range to get a good one.

    The list of improvements to the asthetics has already begun! I absolutely love black cars, so this made the car even more perfect for me, but it does make stone chips, scratches, etc quite obvious, so a front end respray is a definite.

    The modifications list has also begun. Not too long, but long enough! Have you seen how much a decent exhaust system is for this thing?!!

    And the noise

    Can't wait to get it on a track, but god knows when that'll be, I'm up a wall with work at the moment!
