Right then ladies and gentlemen as you may or may not be aware, my girl is going to be back on the road (before 26th of this month).

Just ordered and delivered is a new fuel tank which is being fitted (very kindly) by my favorite bloke

She needs to visit the ramps to see what else she needs for MOT etc, I'm shitting it to be honest as she's been stood for 10 months now

Hopefully once she's back I'll be going for a very subtle kit (pics below), as some of you are aware, I've been after this one for a long long time. Then it's colour change time, but I'm STILL stuck, lord knows, ut I need to put some thought into it first.

Will be keeping chromes but with a view to going smaller deeper (more euro to the delight of a lot of people), in the future.




Watch this space, although not too closely, it's going to take time!

and get a new back window sarah!

ill race you, first one to get their forgotten projects back on the road, wins a mars bar!

punto has been stood for 7 months now too!

Not a fan of the kit sarah if im honest but hey im sure it will come out sweet

Nice to see an original maxxd icon car back on the road

but the E word.....

Kit looks quite sweet I reckon. I've always been a bit of a sucker for E30's though. Mmmm.....325i Sport......

E30 325i Sport = pure porn!

Ollie, it's the only subtle kit I've been able to find, I don't want anything to ott.

Olly, make it a doub;e decker and your on!

Pure porn has to be the E30, M3......Cecotto......*splumf*

Lose the
1) Mudflaps
2) Headlight eye brows
3) Ropey reg number, it looks like its just hiding the cars age to me
4) Sunstrip

On the positive side the paint looks in good condition from the pic so id spend the money elsewhere on it (see list above).

Suspension sits well so no need for mods there. I suspect form the very dark window tinting the interior is pretty gash so maybe sort that too.

Overall although a lot of work is needed it looks like a sound base to build a tasty car on.

Thanks for the words of wisdom Lee, but, I'm keeping the mudflaps, brows, Reg number and sunstrip (purely because it's easier on my eyes when I drive.)

Paintwork has a few scabs on it now on one back arch and a bit on the boot lid so it deffo needs doing.

You also suspect wrong, the interior is in good nick, factory fitted, black recaro leather so I'll be keeping that too. I think darker windows suit darker coloured cars, so they'll stay if I keep the car dark.

Suspension needs replacing really, it's not stiff enough for my liking, but that can wait.

Yep there's a lot of work ahead, but then again that's somthing you have to expect not buying a factory standard car ey

One question to "throw out there" if my car is lowered to suit 18's and I go to 15's or 16's, will it need adjusting?
