I think that stupid music ruins the video tongue out Could hardly hear the car!

Car looks good, though!

Nice to see something different without going too over the top!

I think all the money thrown at that would probably have put you much closer to the M5 you mimic.

However I will say it does look much better than when you started, which was quite frankly disturbing..

I think for some weird reason (as I love Hartge rims) I actually prefer it on the black rims smile Looking very very clean, had much interest from the 5-0 on the plates?

It certainly looks alot more sporty although that's a big car for 250bhp, well done for tuning 70bhp out of it though - how did you manage it?

I had to laugh at the part in your video of you driving on public roads with a helmet and gloves on! Do you realise how much of a cock you look!!?

All meant in jest smile

A Proper cock!

At the traffic lights a car full of old biddy's looked quite confused!- most bhp was from full exhaust and ecu- the cars are de tuned as standard for low engine noise.

Certainly not the usual style of car you see in the Clifton part of Bristol.

I like the kit, not sure about the stickers tho.

Why did you not just use the cash better and buy an M5, or even a 535d Sport DMS'd. Its not even a 530 for fks sakes. The key to modding is first starting off with the right car.

1) The red thing (tow ring?) looks silly on a road car Imo
2) The sport front bumper looks better than that one- more classy
3) The M5 style vent in the wings is a huge NO!!! M5 wannabe- last thing you want is some dumb turbo'd saxo chav thinking he has just beaten a m5
4) If you want legal pressed number plates http://www.dubmeister.co.uk/



Imagine you get car jacked/broken into as some scum thinks you have an M5 ie ideal getaway car...

I like the Hartge look but out of interest, why did you not start off with a 530i/540i/550i/M5/dare I say it 535d? Surely the 525i SE isn't the best base car?

Lol, just seen the weak video. Glad to see the helmet will protect you, hope no one else gets injured...

Sigh, you have been hanging out with the McDonalds crew, hope you learn from this experience.

Here is my BMW 525, rather dull dont you think?!


Here it is with all the work complete to include a full Hartge body conversion, custom quad exhaust,19 inch Hartge Classic alloys, port and polished, Custom ECU, Hot Cams and Exterior/interior re-badge/Hartge Steering wheel, gear knob, hand brake. Had to say goodbye to the German plates, I kept getting pulled!
Suspension? (arguable the most essential mod on a non m sport)

Very stock car-ish on those black alloys with white letters. While I like it, i'm glad I didn't do it.
