New to me!

[TrevD66]

Hi All, as some of you will recall I had my 2001 2.2 stolen and subsequently written off late last year.
After having search for the past 8 months for something I'd be happy to have in her place, I found this 2 owner 97 2.8 with 77600kms (48500 miles).
The second owner did about 2000kms in the 2 years of his ownership.
Pics below are taken this morning upon collecting it from car transport depot having been relocated 4370 km's (2730 miles) and just on 3 weeks in transit.
She hasn't been washed or anything so she's not as presentable as she should be.
You'll note no plates..... It has to be registered as yet... Next week I hope.

Happy days mate

Hi @andyglym, thanks Mate. I think seeing yours was a bit of inspiration. I'm just not sure that mine will get the level of cleaning / detailing that yours does.

A mile off concourse but clean enough for me, besides, a clean car is faster and more fuel efficient, apparently

It's been the longest 8 months of my life @t-tony .... I think the wife was close on shooting me (something to do with "bloody Z3's)

Thanks @Shelly .... I'll get a much more detailed look at it over the weekend.

l’ve always had a preference for the style 42’s or 78’s until I saw these 24’s.
The plan was that I’d change them at a later date but I think I’ll let them well alone…. They do really suit the car well and they do give the rear a more aggressive look with the deeper “dish”.

Looks like you’ve hit paydirt. I’m sure you will have it looking pristine pretty soon.

Congrats, looks like a clean one and has the right colour. Enjoy your new ride!

A couple of changes made over the weekend.

Gone are the standard black door handles, the gill and orange indicators on the front guards.
All the indicators and rear lights are all now LEDs. Headlights, both high and low beam are now Nightbreakers as are the front fog lights.
We are moving forward slowly.

Ah the joys of boys with toys ….. Not forgetting the ladies as well…
