Thats not old ! Have a great day fella.

Shady please start your own thread if you want to take this further rather than hijacking Paul's

Congratulations Robyn, there is nothing like picking up a new car on a Friday and getting stuck into it on the Saturday

Do it man, the opportunity to live in another country for a year is just too good to pass up.

Call them and find out for yourself. Im not giving my secrets away !

Thats the one, Im sure Ive got some more photos of that car somewhere too.

HB fella, BS is really full of young bucks at the moment isnt it, makes me feel positively ancient !

I failed sixth form miserably, but then I was only 15! Failed 7th just as badly which was no surprise and left not knowing what to do. Meet my 'wife to be' on my last day of school and as she was going to do law I signed up for a few uni courses (whatever I could get in to) on the first day and failed all of that aswell! Gave up at the end of that year, got a job and just worked while she did the law degree. Once finished she looked at me and said 'what are you going to do now?' and so I went back and did a BSc in Comp Sci as a mature student of 23. Failing at school made it very hard to get into Comp Sci (I was initially refused entry) but I was several years wiser and actually wanted to learn. I had no idea about how to program or anything and it was hard but a great couple of years and its meant I can (and have) worked all over the world for good money. Looking back, Im surprised more people arent encouraged to take a break. If you have no idea what to do, and lets face it thats 90% of 17 year olds, have a year or two off and get into the real world for a bit. So I say give 7th form a go. You may not want to do university now or in another year but finishing school will make it alot easier for you should you want to go back in the future. See if you can use this year to get an idea of what you might be interested in, or what your natural skills are and go from there. If you have any teachers you can relate too, have a chat with them. I assume you'll stay at the same school and no-one is going to know more about what its like than them.

I didnt think of Gavin, but had a chat with the guys at BM Warehouse and they agreed to get one in from Germany for me. Should take three weeks, which hopefully means it will be here next week

In the small print.... "**We are no longer permitted to ship internationally per BMW. (sorry)"

Unless you put up a price your wasting everyone elses time mate.Im not being funny.....how many daft offers do we need on this thread because you get pi$$ed off and just stick them on TM ? [e] oh and do us a favour and resize the photos, 800x600 is plenty big enough for people to get the idea. Thanks

Holy sh!t thats yellow ! Are you sure you want it that colour ?

I seriously doubt it has anything to do with the space.....have you ever tried to get a baby in and out of a car seat in the back of a coupe ?!?!Id give you a week before you realise how awkward it is and get a four door ! Boot space really depends on the buggy you buy too. Our one in the UK folded away to nothing but the mountain buggies you get over here dont fold down at all, they are massive and a real problem for smaller cars.

Just did the site now and all up its $77USD which is around NZD105-110. Not sure how long priority mail will take though.

This thread has so much win. 1. I fancy one of those knobs myself, thanks for the link Nick. 2. We may end up with lots of e30's with dished weaves but mine are genuine and because Im a snob, I win ;P 3. Nathan, I spoke to a bloke some time ago who was going to do Alpina stripes for e30's. Your colour would look t!ts with gold stripes and I think he ended up selling them under $100. Ill see if I can dig out his details if you want. 4. Good work on the tyre (well done Kerry) and we need new photos, I reckon a 20 mm drop on the rear would look the business but take them on the flat and not your driveway !

Have I mentioned before I really wish mine was red ?

Before anyone asks, yes I have a set of 18 Alpinas sitting in the garage doing nothing and although Im happy to help if I can, they are not having them Seriously though, there really shouldnt be any reason why we as a community cant get this done should there ?

What he said.

FM tuners are crap, do everything you can to hook it up with AUX before you even consider one. In fact Id rather burn cd's all day than use one ! Are there any ST220 forums in the UK ? Id bet money someone has already done the hardwork for you and worked out how to do it if there is.

I havent bought a cd for years. I just got fed up with paying a fortune and having it sit in a box in the garage after Id ripped it. All my music is digital, sits on my server and is wirelessly available anywhere in the house. If there was a decent mobile data plan I could stream it all to an iphone and not even need an ipod. Only thing I dont have is anything in the e30 to play it with. Mine has a NZ stereo and it has a button for CD/AUX which Im wondering whether it can be hooked into an ipod or not

Haha, we watch it religiously aswell. Dont spoil anything Grant, well be watching episode five tonight probably

Jesus they are nasty....have you been drinking Mr Whore ?

Leave it as-is. Gold makes it look like a Honda and everyone else has done black with a polished lip. You have a set of very desirable wheels, so Id leave them alone

Im developing a real soft spot for tech2 coupe's....nice work

Nick beat me to it.....wow !
