More a resume of the end of the year toil than a what have I done today. I have just got it back from the paint shop, front done, scratch on door and dent on boot. That followed, deep breath, new tyres March, 108's refurbished May, MOT, Polybushed and door soundproofing June, Koni adjustable suspension all round +springs, paint calipers, new pad retaining clips August and new Osram zenon bulbs and a second four wheel alignment in September.
An expensive year but lots of good weather and memorable drives. Service next year but thats about it, unless I sell it in the spring and find something else to start on.

Fitted one of these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-iPod...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 which works very well in place of the CD changer that has gone west anyway! Also found that when you plug in the AUX cable (subject of lots of posts on the forum) then you disconnect the bluetooth for the 'phone connection if you have the factory one. So, removed the pins from one inserted them into the other and I have AUX and bluetooth for 'phone. Luckily the pins connect to different places so all is good. Follow the pin outs from pinoutguide.com. So all in all a productive day!

Ha ha thanks. Probably not local to many on this forum. Still have some nice driving days here in Iowa.
South Lanarkshire
Thoroughly cleaned inside & out. Went on a short 30 miles or so run some of that with the roof down as the sun came out 
. Bit cold but great fun 
. Once back home pumped the tyres up to 42psi, put her in the garage, connected the Ctek, fitted the car cover & SORN'd her 
. That's it until March 1st :| . Just bought a new X1 so that'll be the drive through the winter months.
