It is nice to get a car to a nice condition though if the base car is still sound paint wise.
It must have been the cheapest 2008 car about.
The seller "Dan" came up with a figure he was happy with that covered his expenditure since he bought it off Woots .
I was more than happy especially after viewng/driving the car last week , very minor marks on lower edges of front fangs & a very light "ding" in drivers door that can be felt more than seen
Its due a brake fluid change which i will get done along with fresh coolant but otherwise its mechanically sound
It was only serviced with Ins 1 1000miles ago at Darren Wood incl valve clearances checked .
It was MOTd earlier this week with no advisories so its time for some more fuel & away we go
Absolutely chuffed to bits for you Andy, looks great, we'll have to get a run out with Gary and OG one Sunday morning

Right well Steven things haven't gone to plan there this week :?
i know i can trust you forum folks to keep a secret from mrs w
so here are the 3 sets i'm looking at after my first 2 choices proved to be out of stock in the colour/offsets i wanted Great price but not sure the graphite will work with the silver grey car ? http://www.bmautosport.co.uk/showroom/product_info.php/new-performance-alloys-matt-anthracite-deeper-concave-rears-p-3367
Think these are currently my favourite :wink:

but i know the CSL works with all Zs so these have caught my eye as i like the black rears

All nice wheels Andy.i think your car would look good with the 1st set in graphite :
Fancy them for mine too 3rd ones a wee bit bling for me.

Didn't see any of your posts.
Only just noticed your sig from something you'd commented on.
Congratulations! A fantastic looking car and something that you're clearly very pleased with.
I look forward to hearing about your trip to Scotland and France in the ///M and how it performs and how you get to know the car.
it's a lovely example. I've never seen that colour combo before so it's a bit different too!

Afraid not , the induction kit is now on another members car & the changing over left Adam with a rough idling problem that was traced to a badly connected hose .
All running sweet now though
i take it the guy who owned it in between kept the sock?! :lol:
slightly lower offset & same widths as 224s means they will sit a little wider & give me the option of 255 or 265 rubber 8)
