    Retrim is in progress, all OEM fabric arrived and looks amazing (interestingly same pattern but a different hue to the Relicate fabric which looks a little blue by comparison) Very glad I went with the OEM plus matching bolster fabric (with fresh vinyl for outer bolsters etc - OEM style). As it’s going to take a few weeks, I still wanted to be able to use the car a little so here she is in all her stripped out glory, along with a very tired vinyl comfort seat - no corners for me for a while. Its going to be a great contrast switching out to welded, resprung, refoamed and upholstered sport seats with brand new seat shocks! Will shampoo the carpet, repaint some interior plastics and add a little extra sound deadening while the interior is out too.

    If you want a BMW with close to Japanese reliability then you should of bought one that was made about 3 decades ago.

    INH Upholstery - a guy I met through an E30 group - tried a more established place who didn’t seem too interested to be honest. Got a good vibe from Nicholas who is younger but experienced and he knows E30s and seems really keen to put in the time to ensure this is a great job.

    Agreed, OE is the way to go where possible. Will be like a new car when done! Who's doing the upholstery work?

    Continued tidying up the daily by making the interior somewhat habitable. Stripped out the seats and gave the carpets and floor mats a good clean with some drill brushes and a Bissell spot cleaner. Some real nasty spills and stains on both but cleaned up rather well. Also gave the leather seats a wee refresh with a deep clean and some moisturiser cream to bring them back to life a bit, as well as ripping out the remnants of some dodgy old aftermarket alarm system that wasn't working anyway. Will get onto destroying my fingertips through stripping the rubberised finish off all the scratched up centre console plastic bits next.

    Hey everyone, this is my Mum's car. It's an incredible daily but she feels it's too big coming from an E91 335i Touring. I'm looking to get her into a 1-series. Let me know if you're interested. There's some flex on price.

    Wow, I am very envious of the pace of progress on this car, not only are you doing things to a very high standard, you are doing it fast as well!!

    Nice work on the mats @Vass, and smart move to remove that aftermarket alarm crap. 👍

    I also montage the rear smells of the F82, everything is very nice, it takes a bit of work, but it happens, those who want to do it can do it, sorry, you are making a Turkish translation
