154,500 kms. Small, but satisfying, update today. When I got the ‘36 I noticed the rear model designation emblem was sitting slightly too high. Finally got around to remedying that last weekend. Before: After:

Oh yeah, this thing is good... Fixed the alignment a little so pretty close to no rubbing. Probably still needs to be slightly higher front and rear. Waiting on some strut spacers for the Ohlins so I don't have to preload the spring quite so much on the front before I get a proper alignment. For now I've just gotta hope the driveway measured camber and toe will suffice. I also accidentally ordered a set or recaro pole position ABE's which I've decided will get trimmed in m-texture to match as well. Oops, man I really need to take a break from spending on this thing.

(Added Pics) Kia ora tatou / greetings to everyone. Just joined the cool kids club with my first BMW. Honestly was just looking for a fun drivers car hadn't even considered Euro but with the ridiculous prices any of the usual suspects i ended up getting great value I think with this 130i. Working on cleaning it up enough to get it to sharable shape and then will post some pictures. Maybe this weekend, i washed it and its already dirty the day after so I need to plan for the pics better. A big thanks to this forum for helping me realize what a great little car the 130i is. Look forward to sharing what I can but mostly soaking up all the knowledge here. Quick question while I'm posting, is it pretty much impossible to get a BMWP intake and exhaust for the e87 these days? https://www.mdecoder.com/decode/wbauf92060p010621 VIN: WBAUF92060P010621

Ah god bless those ute driving people that get up at 4am to milk the cows, plow fields and send animals off to head to our dinner plates. Unsung heroes really, tough job, well it's not a job really - a way of life

261m are a good look too IMO and maybe easier to get seeing as everyone modifies E82 135is...

I have a plug-in Dremel with some good cutting discs... what are you trying to cut (that will determine the number of discs you churn through)?

Its just Mdecoder being a potato... its commonly broken. VIN is correct. 130s are epic little cars, good choice, and its got all the right options! BMWP are still available, all old stock and sporadically (mostly UK BMW dealers). If on faceballs jump on "BMW 130 Owners Unite" as stuff occasionally pops up there. BMWP is nice and shiny, but often overpriced and a lot of the aftermarket stuff is actually better to be fair

Thanks for the welcome M3AN, RE: BMWP stuff I was afraid of that, i guess the hunt begins. I will post in wanting to buy just in case. Strange about the VIN. It's a right hand drive license plate is HGD181 that should point to the correct vehicle.

Can confirm, Eisenmann Race

Once I put the stock interior back in I’ll post some photos

Hold onto the bits. You will make some good money someday without all the effort of E30ing.

Maybe I was a little too subtle. I pick up an E60 M5 this weekend having receipts for the main items and a decent PPI report leaving me with a chunk of change to bring it up to my standard, fuel and emergencies.
