Been a little lazy - but gave the car a quick clean on Saturday, drove to the peaks and took some pictures - not as artistic (good) as i had hoped - i really need to learn how to take decent pictures!

Very nice. Love your seats and interior, same as mine :wink: A very rare interior you don't see it much.
Infact your car is exactly the same as mine but a Roadster not Coupe :P
 
Nice looking car, but I would say that.

You need to get your wheels swapped under warranty though, the corrosion is bad on the inners, and dont let the dealer fob you off.
 
Cheers for the comments everyone. Got a few mods i am contemplating - some Eibachs and aero skirts, but i promised myself i would try not to mod this as i have done on my last few cars!

Just found some pictures of your car - they are practically identical (with the exception of the roof) You even opted for the bigger stubby from the norm a similar to the S2K aerial i fitted on mine, and i already have; but not yet fitted my black carbon roundals. Still undecided about painting my calipers though.

I would say yours is like my cars twin - but as mine is the convertible i thinks its probably be more appropriate if mine is the little sister!

Cheers for the heads up - Your quite correct 3 out of the 4 wheels are totally corroded on the inside, no lifting of the lacquer on the face of the wheels though - I'll go to my local dealer this weekend and see what they say. If they do swap them it would be brilliant as my gf slightly curbed one of my front wheels last week (well i think it may have been me, but when i accused her she didnt deny it!) Otherwise I was looking at changing them to some black multipoke with a SS lip - (I had some lightweight rotas on my old S2k) but not found any which really take my fancy.

I did, my aerial was er 'free' from Lexus :wink: Works perfectly too!
It'll look awesome with the carbon roundels. I absolutely love mine. Love my red calipers too, give it some thought :) I have window tints too.

:rofl:

Love your style, blaming the GF when you're not sure it was you that did the kerbing, superb! :D


Nice car. Wheels make me miss my old 108s - great looking wheel despite the corrosion issues.

I still have some red hammerite left from when i painted my last car's calipers, but then i also have some black high temp paint (from when i painted an old cars manifold) - so maybe i will just paint it two tone like the seats :lol:

I wanted to tint my rear window, as i have smoked the windows of my last few cars however with the windbreak (and i am too lazy to remove it) its pretty much impossible to see out of it at night as it is!

As if a man would ever admit to curbing their wheels when there is a woman available to blame :D
 
Very nice - but you need some chrome indicator bulbs to get rid of the fried eggs on the front :poke: :D

Yeah i really want to get rid of the orange in there.. but i was under the impression that my indicator bulbs are clear - but inside the lights themselves there is an amber glass - which isnt removeable (well without a dremmel) :?

Just priced up some aero skirts from the dealer - and hopefully will hear back from this week about replacing my corroded wheels.
 
That would suck if true, shame BMW made a facelist clear lens and then leave some amber glass in :headbang:

Aero skirts do look good - but I am a bit biased!
