Looking good, and some rarer options too. :thumbsup:

Looks like you need new front badge though. :o

Part Number is 51147044207 if that helps!

Thanks first thing to be sorted,stealer price is ?

It's currently about £45 on Amazon, but you might find Sopers of Lincoln or Cotswold BMW slightly cheaper if you mention the forum.

I'm not sure how much of the base you have left, but you might need a couple of self-tapping nuts that hold it on if you don't have them.

I'd have been more than happy with 37.8mpg from either of my 3.0Sis!

Good luck with the fun in your inspection pit. :thumbsup:
