He asked to have a look as only lived up the road. Was no commitment from me, he knew where he stood in line. He basically chatted about cars and the like for an hour . He did turn up in an E85 , which was his sisters , so was a bit of a BMW fanboy . No harm done was there ? :roll:

A guy came to see mine yesterday and is 6th in line to buy it. Has travelled the country looking for a decent E86 . Said there are so many chancers out there selling smokey, wrong coolant, oil leaking, tatty and unloved cars and he was pretty dispondent to what he was seeing available for the...

Put mine up for sale yesterday and have 2 peeps lined up so far at the weekend................. Just never had time to use it and the reality of grand parent hood due in 6 weeks , means I either need to get the wife to walk behind while I test the isofix in the passenger seat............... Will...

Having now owned a Born for a week , I can say it makes all our other cars pretty much like steam engines in comparison. Wasn't planning on 'liking it' as much as I do. I had options on a company car and a hybrid seemed to tick the boxes, except getting a car on the drive. I liked the Cupra...

M539 Restorations on youtube is a BMW spanner man and is really informative and funny at the same time and fixes all models of cars. He ( although I suspect is sponsored by Liquid Moly) uses it in BMW gearboxes to help with the 1st to 2nd senario when cold and says its one of the best. He does...

Black E86 '65' plate on Finchampstead Rd , Wokingham yesterday afternoon.

Silver E86 in Bexley St, Windsor today. Spotted when visiting Mum, who lives in the street :D

E86 Hellrot in Newbury today. Turning into Aldi at 3pm. I have seen it on here as has different either compomotive or BMW alloys.

You wont get legionnaires from the evaporator of a cars a/c system. You are more likely to contract it from your shower head in the house, when you run a shower after a week away on holiday. The bugs feed off the scale on the head, you switch it on and it becomes a perfect way to get into your...

Neighbours 2003 CRV had theirs extracted outside their house by some of those people who live in homes on wheels. I was expecting it to be written off, but its fixed and working again. So, even older cars are susceptible to the scumbags ..............

I've sorn'ed mine today . Just need to pump the tyres up a bit more and leave on the ctek . Roll on 2023. :driving:

Definitely not the same springs. Bought the wrong Eibachs in the past and had to order different for the M sport version. Z4m is a heavy cast iron engine which makes some of the differences alone.

Iain, Have a look at ebay item 195369512607 From BMW shop. Dont buy one, buy a pair. Dont ask how I know the other one will go 2 days after the first ! :(

Sapphire Black E86 Coupe heading south on the M3 towards Basingstoke this morning at 7:30am. Great to see a very smart looking car, although I maybe biased on the shiny black thing.

MOT for mine today. Passed with all in tact. Was underneath pulling all the grass out of places from the car parking at Mallory Park a couple of weeks back. It was great to park nose down on a slope in a rwd car in deep grass . Somehow we got out and took the grass away as a souvenir :roll:
