perhaps with a card there are incremental price increases /decreases over and above the normal cash price...have a look lately perhaps its being going down in the last few months faster than the official cash price too?

different width,so require different profile to retain desired o/a dia...dia must be similar otherwise it can mess with the abs.....

supercats???

was done sometime ago.....bloody scary in some ways....our one was done late in the afternoon, both cars are home and can see the shadow of the van that took the photo very clearly in the foreground!quite accurate too,i only had to alter the view a little bit to get square on to our house!

re the mats max,proper crs have screws which go into the existing carpet,sound deadening and have clips on the top to fit into the eyelets on the mat.....

nice car and nice wheels...but somehow to me the combo isnt quite right....not chrome would suit the red better i reckon.

my main concern would be electrical issues......if it got water inside deep enough to get up under the back seat.....look out

whats the attraction of LHD?

kudos to you Laurence....must remember guys Laurence has been on this project for two years now.....!!!Glad that wheel cover spanner will come in useful.!

i have a mate who lives in california....better check up on him!

old news perhaps...the newest tvs have built in freeview...

i got a 40 samsung LCD cheap(surplus after the Hamilton V8s) Its not "full' hd,but hd ready.Through our panasionic dvd recorder player its really good.On digital sky its heaps better than the not so old 29 panasonic crt we had.As Penry said you can still watch it even if the sun is shining directly onto the screen.Every now and then i do notice a slight glitch or fussiness.Ie a far shot of all blacks on a green green feild,or a slo mo replay of a a high contrast situation)I do plan on geeting freeview and or HD sky so the hdmi inputs will get used eventually!If you have sky they will upgrade your cables to component(or is it composite),ie from three cables to five...they did one for free

take some more pictures in 8 years time ....i ussually only wash my 1990 535 and it comes up really nice..its time for some more polish and wax though...I have a theory that you actually polish your car infrequently...that way the paint and or clear coat dont get thinned down.But frequent washing is required

i would have thought that they would be somewhat neater than that...but perhaps the seller was as excited as the buyer must have been...I beleive it was a business car so did lots of open road miles.....

the factory ones were in the boot lining on the left hand side...looking into the boot...

not required mate....you can buy me a beer if we ever get to meet.The 540 is a six speed and tourquey as...3.6 M5 is only a 5 spd and prolly requires more driver input..I bet the s 38 sounds cool at 6000 rpm tho...

silence reigns......

why do you say that simon?He does mention that it has been repainted and re trimmed...

Martyns way of tying to get us slack wellington BS er's to meet n greet an out of town BS er

impressive stuff...i was impressed even at seemingly low revs coming of an off the throttle situation the subie could still spin all four wheels...

I am not doubting it Bruce.....so the recipient car was a nice 525 with a blown motor or something?

this may include the original work to put the m5 bits in the original 525....dont know what happened to the original m5 body.it may be revealed in the thread we had when it was last for sale

yes it was green and it didnt have the white(or is that very light grey) leather...

i put 452s(235x45x17) on the front.....they seem absolutely fine.Some people seem to think they arent any good in the wet but i have no complaints...They fixed a heinous shimmy,but i must admit my old fronts were pretty tired,and i hadnt had a balance for a while
