Hi guys and gals,
Hope you all well!

I have always been passionate about cars and especially the German marks. Last year I purchased after much searching, a W124 in the spec I wanted. But as with with most things you always strive for more power !! So decided to build my own spec E36 Amg equivilent. Hope you like the pics. I also own a Car Audio company in Shrewsbury, Shropshire. I am happy to discuss any audio / visual enquiries with members.

generally dont like 'modded' cars, but that does have a certain something about it, esp the engine.

not to sure about the grill, how about a 'star' grill like the SELs(?) of the time?

whats the interior like?

welcome

did'nt really want anything on the front grill as trying to keep people guessing what it is coming up behind.

Looks really mean and 'drug dealer'. I would have thought your audio equipment would be so subtle working in the audio industry, i guess you cant put much in the boot as it will damage the speakers is this correct?

The boot Build is subtle, and you can still get 2 suitcases in the back that is why it shows in the pic a picture with and without the cover !

Chav !!!! Think maybe you been looking at the wrong car ! at not mine !

Chav?- most of what Ive seen in the RC have been very nice & well finished off.

Not too keen on the front lights, but the rest is spot on...

I love the duck tail spoiler too, rare as feck...well, they are for the w201.
I like the front grille too, never been a fan of the kebab shop owner grille (with the huge star)
Nice workthumbup

Absolutely love the car, positively hate that drug dealer/gangsta grille!

Find a proper grille chap, it's ruining a stunning car.
