Cardiff
Hello and thanks for the welcome so far to the forum.
Im a new E86 owner as of a few weeks ago. 161k 2007 manual 3.0 si SE Monaco Blue with contrast beige interior. I have a knack of buying cars which are a bit tired and in need of some love. I find the process of sorting out a few jobs and learning about the car almost as fun as the driving!
So far I've given the car a service and engine seems to be running well. I suspect the next job will be proper scrutiny of suspension, bushes etc as well as refreshing all the rest of the fluids. The handling, particularly on the motorway, isn't very confidence inspiring - tramlines and some vibration through the steering wheel. I found my way to the forum having read a few threads about possible culprits.
Looking forward to learning and hopefully meeting some likeminded people along the way. Cheers, Charlie
