Bit of a confusing thread to be honest.

Are you sure the correct windscreen has been installed? There are HUD and non-HUD versions and all many of permutations with different safety gear etc.

As an aside, typically what's the cost of a HUD recalibration by a dealer likely to cost?

Destined to be a future classic at the rate they're disappearing!

Unfortunately this gent is taking out his bad luck out on you. Politely decline his invitation to contribute.

I put in a tacho cluster last year.  Need to install the clock centre console.  It's on the list of things to do.

Buttonage looks very smart and tidy.

I’m always a little nervous when the lead photo shows the bonnet agar…

Especially only on one side!

Who stole your clock!!!

I used to walk past a CSL taking my son to school everyday in central London. Parked outside on the road day and night, only moved in the weekends 😂

What year is your X5 Khalid?

No thanks.

The Z8 project reminds me of the Jaguar Type-S, just because you can doesn't necessarily mean you should...

Ah I see. Many thanks!

Vader?

Looks superb. You’ve great taste 👍

A pleasure Rich and Barry.

My N62B44 engine was faultless for 30k miles over 6 years. We had a few "other" issues though with the e60. Painful at the time but didn't break the bank...

Interest really picked up AFTER lockdown which I guess is because so many people are online. I actually got a couple of decent offers and have taken a deposit pending final payment and pickup after lockdown. I sent videos and service receipts for the out of town buyers.

Congratulations. It looked a really lovely car and someone is very lucky!

Wow thanks for that. How did you manage to do that? I double checked with the VIN and got same results. Only question is why it shows it as a left hand drive?

Welcome and don't worry about the left hand thing in the VIN checkers. Very often incorrect.

Let's face it the buyers won't be paying to replace batteries after 10 years, they'll have passed the car on 5-7 years previously and bought another one!

Welcome Greg, that 325ti (which one is it?) must be quite lively?

Congratulations !

Colour sounds interesting. Any photos available online?

Not bad. The 2 is the just right size for a driving focused coupe IMV. I would prefer the M2 over the 3's and 4's.

I think what we're mainly seeing is the requirement to keep the waistline quite high to meet safety regulations. Note the where the A pillar and C pillars start. Mirrors and flared rear haunches are a highlight for me.

I'm wondering if there will be another boom once N54/N55 cars become classic.  I can see it going down the toilet in the next 10 years due to the electric boom.

Potentially makes it a good time to sell your classics in the near future?

Depends on why you've bought it in the first place...speculate, enjoy or perhaps both.

Ha! 😂

Interesting day today.

Went to have a covid test where they serve you in your car. A big gust whipped through, picked up their tent and smashed it into my bonnet. At first we spotted just a few scratches, which may have buffed out, but then we spotted the impact dent smack bang in the middle. Ooops!

Nice pics Jun.
