Went out to get a loaf of bread and a pint of milk this morning and came back with this:





£500 worth of 16 year old BMW 325i. Sound bodyshell, new brakes, duff headgasket (but has a new HG and new head with it). All it needs is an MOT, some Tax and a rollcage and my trackslag is born. <br/>Now i just need to work out how to get a SORN car from Guilford to Cheltenham

It's where i found the car! I'm ok for wheels at the moment. Budget is rather limited, so self preservation items come first.

Agent... as soon as you've got that car ready, let me come listen to it... I've got a soft spot for E30's and BM |6's... It won't take me long to get there either! I've just moved back to Evesham!

Will do. I've had a powerflow centre section put on the exhaust recently. Sounds lovely from inside. I'll probably get a rear box put on in the next few months, depends how restrictive the OEM one is (although the tailpipes keep falling out).
