MD13 494 Report post Posted September 30, 2015 (edited) Bought myself a new car on the weekend. Got an e46 325i. Good points: Manual Motorsport Good spec Blue 2 owner vehicle - previous owner bought in UK approx. 2005 and bought it back with him Decent service history Bad points: Covered in scratches and dings Seats are worn No cup holders! Aftermarket headunit works fine but is quite dated Heater fan surges a little To do list (this will grow): Get it serviced and looked over - I bought it without getting a PPI as I have found the manual cars change hands pretty fast! Good cut and polish Dent Magician for the little stuff Leather interior Cup holders - Done New shift knob and boot Update to in car audio - has Alpine h/u and speaker upgrade with amp in boot but sub missing... Sub added :-) Window tints - see leather interior Car is nice to drive and so smooth. Might see some of you at one of the coffee meets soon :-) Edited October 11, 2015 by MD13 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Michael. 2313 Report post Posted September 30, 2015 Manual 2.5L > a few dents Should be a good project! I'm sure you can get most parts like replacement seats etc from Brent or Ray. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MD13 494 Report post Posted October 12, 2015 Had water pump and thermo. housing replaced. Some other odds and ends checked/serviced. Installed cup holder :-) Installed amp and sub in boot - I'd fit quite comfortably in the boot if not for the spare tyre retention bolt... Oh and colour is TOPASBLAU METALLIC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
