Those Seats! Where did you get them?

I think your car is awesome!
It's BMWZ's car, which has sadly been sold and parted out I think. Lot of work went into that by the looks of things, what an amazing interior, I think he worked for a trimmer that did ferrari etc stuff?
The M performance seats come up for sale fairly regularly on cutters, this is the only post I can find where the photobucket links aren't broken. I think 2.5k is about the going rate from bmw.

How many of you have an Insurance Policy Declaration matching what you've posted above ?

Yep, absolutely. Insurance companies have moles who regularly check forums etc, it would be daft not to declare mods and put your registration on show.
Been common knowledge for years now.

When i called a specialist modified car insurer (the only people who would entertain insuring my car)
He openly admitted that he was online checking my profile and car as he spoke to me.
Good job i didn’t hold back!!!
My little blue zed is in lots of bits. With lots of things started and not many finished! I may have found the limits of my time and ability!!

You are a muppet if you dont insure and declare every mod as any saving will be insignificant if you are involved in any kind of claim and you have given them a reason not to pay out!!

IMO, one of the best was was Femme Taken's supercharged Alpina RS - after a crash he he rebuilt it virtually from the bodyshell up... Drexler LSD, custom suspension, subframe reinforcement, mov'it brakes, ESS Supercharger, Recaro seats etc. etc. plus lots of cosmetic mods including a full respray in Lambo Grey
