No worries HT, I've had about 60-40 in favour of the white wheels so far, from various sources.

If this is the most 'Gay' thing I do then I'm not doing too bad!

Hoping to get the ///M bumper on over Feb half term, trying to fit in some tracking of the Saxo too, but finding it hard amongst the crap Spurs are producing and trying to earn a living!

Hope Holland is treating you well?

Ha ha......yep, every one should do their own thing............ ;)

Very well, thank you very much.
People over here are very straight forward and say it as it is, which I think is brilliant......but it more often than not gets me in to trouble in the UK....... :D

Well, the time has finally come to actually put the effort in and sell my beloved coupe!

So I got it MOTed today, knowing that it would fail on the emissions and airbag light.

That therefore would mean I couldn't drive it, so that in turn will make me fix it faster!

So I started a long list of jobs to get the car up to scratch to be sold.

Airbag light - no obvious signs under the seat to the wires to will strip the leather off tomorrow and replace the occupancy sensor (that's the code on the scanner)



Fuel gauge also doesn't work so set about the 'hatch' behind the removed passengers seat - I will replace the sender unit with the one from the green Z3 that I am breaking.




Then swapped by cat for the cat I have in storage 364 days of the year which actually has some honeycomb in it.




Then as a little treat I'll finally get the ///M front bumper on!





Here she is half dressed!





For those interested I'll be putting the car onto pistonheads in the LHD section for £7000 as soon as the odd jobs are all done.

Well I have had to order a few parts and now the long wait for delivery.

The annoying driver's window kept getting stuck about half way down, I have bought a brand new mechanism from BMW but it doesn't come with the little runners which on mine have worn away. The middle mount had also snapped so that got welded!







On this one you can see the wear in the top left.



Should be a bolt thread here!



Out comes the welder

Yes I would, but you would have to fetch it from the scrap yard
