518? 4 pot engine? Undepowered IMHO. Bodywork looks good.

For sure, its a small engine for a heavy shell, but im assuming its not going to get thrashed about, so will be a nice to potter about in....used to have a c180 and to cruise about in it was a lovely smooth drive, anything other than that it was like a boat on the road!!

Lexusboy What the plans on the mod front.
The car looks pretty standard right now?

I think the car is completely standard right now. She wants a new set of rims and I have to admit BMW has spawned a lot of different, really nice designs. Also, the E34 M-tech bodykit is on the shopping list along with new rear lights and white front indicators for a more modern look. Apart from those things I don't think the car needs more exterior modifications Smile

It sure is an underpowered engine and I would certainly not be happy with that power/weight ratio, but Sara just wants the car to look good Smile

When it comes to speed she has a Yamaha racing kart to play with :tongue_smilie:

More pictures :tongue_smilie: Hopefully it will pass its upcoming MOT, but I suspect at least a few things have to be fixed. Still not bad for £435, though.

Yep, it was almost £100 cheaper than my HKS muffler :tongue_smilie:

It needed a few small bits replaced though, but it was still a good price.

Last weekend we got new seats, door cards, dashboard and a lot of interior trim for the bimmer
