More interesting members of the family fleet!
Discussion
Just thought i'd drop in and show off my ongoing project and post MR2 daily driver.
The daily driver is a 98 E36 328 sport. Recently picked up some genuine M3's wheels with polished lips
. Will hopefully get new throttle bodies and inlet manifolds soon as that will release 30bhp due to the current manifolds being so restrictive to get under German tax hikes!
RR'd and returned better than standard figures
The project is a 1965 series 1 Jaguar E-type 3.8 straight 6
Interior is the next bit to work on
Both together
Hope you like

The M3 is a nice looking car, it's not as if he's trying to pass his 328 off as an M3, he's just put a nice kit on it! It's not like alot of 318's with crooked 'M///' badges 
It is a completely standard 328 sport the only change is the M3 wheels. The kit is a factory fitted m-tech kit.Edited by Pistuphead on Sunday 10th June 21:01
Have kept the origianl bbs wheels but they need refurbing so when i get chance I will do it and them maybe go back to them
I have left the 328 badges on because it isn't an M3

Like them both 
but never been keen on that colour on the E-types
Just goes to show everyones different - that's my favourite colour of E-Type, possibly because one of my earliest motoring memories (in fact one of my ealiest memories of anything!) is being taken for a ride in my Uncle's primrose yellow Series 3 - it was fantastic! but never been keen on that colour on the E-typesJust thought i'd do a little update on this.
The BMW finally got it's original BBS' wheels refurbed. Diamond cut lip Lacquerd with new chrome bolts.
The E-type has taken a back seat recently finally got the cooling issues sorted we hope.
Unfortunalty took the e-type out of the garage last weekend and the clutch slave cylinder has gone. However we thought it was due to the clutch sticking tried to free it off and in the process stripped the starter ring
. So its an engine out job and get a new stater ring fitted aall before the Le Mans classic. Easy you would think but due to other commitments work can't start until June and one of those weekends im going to Le Mans!!

Any joy with unleashing the six you have in the 328? I'm hoping to go about getting rid of the restrictive bits in my own 328 but curious as to how much you may have spent to undo the work they did to bring it under that tax band.
I know I know, i could go look on e36coupe, but i can't be bothered at the moment
