Been Spending (what treats have you got lately)

I think the furniture clinic has a few more steps to it than the liquid leather stuff i used.
It could be time between processes , if not fully dry/cured i suppose it gould have caused the dye not to bond fully.
 
A new MOT one advisory which was OS Tyre wearing on inside. Looks like i need to get the tracking checked
 
Stone guards hope they stay on:nailbiting: thanks Dave, great looking set glad I went for the Graphite look so looks like i'm not trying to hide them:thumbsup:

New intake rubber hose from MAF to 1st joint. And cheaper from BMW than genuine item on ebay, who says dealers are expensive???!! definitely worth checking first though.

Do you mind sharing the price? Need a couple for my zed, think the last ones cost about £13 each but they were not genuine.

Round figures £22 for the top hose and £10 for the lower section this is the M54 engine

Did you replace all the rear bushes, for trailing arms and cross member? How much of a job was it?
I replaced the trailing arm bushes with Super Pro Bushes. They were a bit awkward to do without completely removing the rear trailing arm, (drive shaft, brake lines and hand brake cables still attached) as you need to get the car up high to be able to rotate the front of the trailing arm downwards to allow access to remove / refit the bushes. The Super Pro bushes are a little harder to fit that the power flex bushes as they are not two piece.
I haven't changed the rear subframe / cross member bushes yet. I plan to drop the complete rear suspension next winter and weld in camber / toe adjusters and powder coat everything.
 
I spent £297.50, and they don't even give you a paper disc for your windscreen anymore. Although I did read that since doing away with tax discs the revenue deficit has grown a lot!
