Spent a little time on this one over the weekend, removed the wrap and tidied it up a little. A fair few carbon fiber replacement parts are on the way, this should look a bit different again by xmas.

Haven't seen this one before..

Just wanted to say thanks to Andy and Graham for such detailed posting over the years, it's been a pleasure to read through everything this car has been through over the years. I'm sure the dozens (maybe??) of us that read this appreciate it! I'm a long time reader, first time caller - just managed to pick up a new-to-me 2002 320d Touring m-sport so the info in the thread has been invaluable. Keep it up!

A large cloud of smoke. With a 2006 320i inside it.

Another four months gone by, done a bit to the old girl so thought I better make another post to update the thread! May have posted in here already that I sourced a minty black headliner for it. Any decent E46 headliner is a hard find these days, let alone a non-sunroof, black, Touring one! After sitting on top of my Tech2 E30 in the garage for at least a year, and the original one deciding to come away completely, I had a spare afternoon and got it installed into the car. I have to say, doing a headliner job on a touring is a breeze compared to a sedan, as it flys in and out of the tailgate! I also decided to service the transmission, new filter oil and pan gasket as no idea when those were last done! At the last Wof I got an advisory that the left front shock had very slight misting and to keep an eye one it. I forgot all about it, but the last month or two I have noticed the car a bit bouncy in the front. So I have ordered some Bilstein B4s, and of course tophats and bumpstops as makes sense to do those while in there. I have a set of M Sport springs here, so I think I will put those in place of the original 320d ones and see how that looks and feels. If memory serves correctly, when Graham owned the car, the front control arms and CABs were changed already, so shouldnt have to do anything more for many more miles! Other than that, just keeps going and going, starts first time every time, happy days!

Took this on to Hampton Downs a few weeks back to support the Porsche Club track day. A foggy morning presented an excellent opportunity for some cool pics.
