What have you done to your car today?

Checked tyre pressures and fluid levels, bunged an overnight bag in the boot and about to hit the road. Will be taking the scenic route (ie not the M5/M6) for the 200 miles up to my overnight stop in Warrington, then early morning appointment tomorrow with DLV.

Looking forward to a little road trip.

Fitted Veeman VFS23 19 inch alloys and tyres, courtesy of Jamie.

Look really good on the car and i'm pretty happy with the clearance at the rear so I reckon i'll keep it as it is for now, without any spacers.
Looks even better in the flesh. Just need new bolts. Car rides well with no rubbing on a test drive.

Looks good, no spacers needed!
Make your brakes look very small though, next modification?

I got to ask why Jamie? I've not been on here long but you have had some very interesting changes to wheels etc on the threads I have read.

One of those jobs that isn't apparent but is very rewarding and a must when you purchase a new car.

New side repeater arrived today. £100 with a BMW badge.

£20 with out.

Happily when I ran into the garage a few weeks back the badge was unmarked. So after a bit of prying and re glueing the new one was fitted in about 30s. Why aren't all lights that simple to swap out.

Are you sure it was an 80 pound difference for a badge? Crazy
