I like to stand out pal , however one consideration is to keep it original

Fair play Sean

But I have to laugh, that it has style 18s after all that you said about them
I guess they will not be staying on it long

A minor detail . As you said probably wont be on the finished article. I rate them as a winter wheel simply because they're easy to clean. I don't enjoy cleaning wheels

yes they where refurbed a couple of years ago, I have to say that since the above comment that have grown on me as a winter wheel so I will probably be keeping them in the garage

I paid £700 for the entire car with a tonneau, the wheels where the last thing I was looking at

You didn’t do a thorough inspection then?

I did take a good look around it and checked the rear cross member, these thing tend to lower the sellers expectations , Oh its now in my possession.

Congrats on your new toy Sean.

 

[Sean d]

Only got it at 4pm and had to drive the seller home, I was going to use the 2.8 but it was heavy snow across country so took the daily drive, I will start stripping the shell on Saturday, can't wait as I am a bit concerned as to what I might find.

 

[t-tony]

.......and so it starts

Haha! Here we go again!

Got a nice surpise today, I found the leather folder with all the original brochures and it has full BMW service history, only the last one is not dealership and was done 4k ago, a couple of big year gaps though, 15 stamps in total

 

[Grumps]

Always nice to find things like that Sean. Especially at the price you paid, big bonus
