Looking great Andy... :thumbsup:

:roll: can't deny i was'nt taken with your E89 & may have slight regret that i didn't relieve you of it when i had the chance :wink: happy how it panned out though & even happier i went with the gloss black inners :poke: :D

Heh, yeh nice car that one :D :wink:

I've been thinking about maybe getting black kidneys on it as there's a crack on one of them and was wondering how it would look with the grey e89s, safe to say it looks ok! Still not decided yet though....

Those wheels look stunning on that colour car! :thumbsup:
Iknow whose advice to get, if I replace those on mine. It already has 19", and they really do fill the arch nicely!
Can't wait to pick it up Tomoro. :D
Now: Jaguar XF R Sport red/black leather and soooo many new toys

If you do take that route, let me know if you need a pickup/drop off Andy as that's my neck of the woods. :thumbsup:

No clue but I'll guess first. Looks like an inspection 2 type deal without having the top of the engine off so at the dealer £650 and at an Indy £400.

Let the ridicule begin! :(

Mines booked in at my Indy next week for inspection 2 combined with MOT. If it passes MOT I'm expecting £500 - £600 :cry:

That's a lot for an I2 at an Indy... my last Inspection 2 plus brake fluid change was done by my local BMW dealer and came in at £456

MOT was done a short while later for under £30 by a local place that only does MOTs

It's a guesstimate - truth is I've not asked for a quote.
