No Hovis....That's why Even Spie put a few croissants on his new Ferrari.

(An exception is made for the Boss, he can use any bread he wants)

This may have been mentioned.. but the front tyre (drives side I think) is on backwards isn't it?

If they're Vred Sessanta tyres then no, this is normal:

*ARRRGGHHHH*

*goes insane*

Why does everybody say this. I even had a mechanic at vauxhall tell me this. When i challenged him to read the back of the tyre where it was marked inside. he still went and had a look lol.

 

[Awesome]

Thank you Hatter the mad.

I must be getting old, Crumpets is correct ! A quick search found them

o rly? where wud that be then?

My 335i looks exactly the same as the last pic in the first post apart from the rear spoiler, is the spoiler the standard M3 one or another aftermarket one? as I may get one for my own car.

the rear spoiler is an OEM M3 spoiler. probably the one of the first ppl to do this in the UK now every man and his dog are doing it .

when i got it the part was about £110 and £90 or so to paint from BMW. Half hours labour on top to fit. i did it myself though. e90post.com is the site for information. wealth of info there for u in terms of modding and e9X queries

Thanks for the nice comments guys.

You cant suspend the OP... he owns a awesome car!

Dear OP: Please get the black alloys posted by MrSix. Thanks

I did contemplate on gunmetal powedercoat alloys as it does look good but didnt want it to look 'tacky' or ebing a chav to the casual observer. Fair enough i should do what i want but when most would consider it cheapens the look of the car i decided to play it safe or safer lets say.


MrSix - Nice photos and website

Had a look at this exhaust valve and found that its already been done. Backbox is looking a little tatty though so a good excuse for something shiney

 

[86JR]

no it's not

do you live in the UK and do less than 20,000 miles a year? get a 335i

Done 10k in three months so far!!!!

Just get the 335i anyway
Since I've had mine I've got a new job in Canary Wharf, which means I don't get to drive it to work every day and I miss it

If you work in one of the towers, do they not give you an allocated parking slot in the underground carpark under the tower itself?

Have you any idea how many people work in those towers?

 

[Ricochet J]

Yup, I'm quite a skyscraper enthusiast!
If you're quite high up, i.e. team leader at least, the company will/should give you a slot. (This is from at least 4 of my friends who work in different towers).

I'm a contractor, so classed as scum

I could get a parking space though, but there is a waiting list, it would cost nearly £200 per month and it would probably take 2 hours to drive to Canary Wharf in the rush hour from where I live so the train is the better option!

Planning on taking the car out for a blast round some country lanes tomorrow on the way to a mate's place in Buckinghamshire though, so it's still worthwhile having the car.
