What was your name?

Get well soon mate.

Yeah, i see see poeple with £10k cars to £100k 911's and think, i wouldn't want to track that. If you crash (which a 911 gt3 rs did at Oulton!) you'd be gutted. If i crashed, id be gutted, but id break the car and probably get most of my money back. Or if not to bad, just buy some used parts and bolt it back together!

I want an e46 M3, i'll get the engine free if i buy the car! Somebody coming to look at the 7 tomorrow... The guy coming today has had a scary letter from the HMRC so cant buy a new car yet.

Id love to V8 the M3. If it went pop, id just get another M52 mate, soo cheap you have more fun. I dont know why, but i have more fun abusing cheaper cars. Maybe i feel bad with nicer cars.. When im on track in the M3, im taking care and being half serious. Got to brake at the right point etc When ive tracked 328's, ive been on a major attack and laughed all the way round! Maybe just because its easier to drive a slower car.

Will post pictures when its done. Haven't 100% decided!

Its getting painted!!

You have to sub to pm mate. Well worth £20 imho.

Hahahahahahaha!

You can take something off ebay at any time. Might have changed his mind and kept it, or sold it outside of ebay.. Ebay sometimes take stuff off if they break the rules.

He sold it..

No!

Footman james insure a jap zed on a classic policy. A £1000 Zed will need work, but you can get them. A £3000 zed will need work, so it depend what you want. Im near Brum too mate, but dont have a zed atthe moment. I know of a nice looking UK car for £1400...

Like this? This is the old one i had in px a few years ago.

Thats a nice colour. Ive got in my head Imola red Estoril blue Ibis White Bright yellow Some people are telling me to keep it the clouor it is, but wheres the fun in that??

Me being impulsive, ive bought another toy. I had a 318ti sport compact a few years ago in a px. Me being a massive Bmw fan, i took it, but it was too slow. I thought about putting a 328 engine in it, but reading into it and it was a pig of a job. It got sold on, then i bought my first M3. I read a guys thread on the M3 forum, he was putting a 328 engine into a compact. He got it on up and running and decided it was going to be a track car. All the interior trims are gone and it has 1 seat! He said he's too busy to use it, so put it up for sale for £1250. Ive bought it. Needs more to finish it that i thought. Still on the stanadard suspension and rear axle. The diff ratio is great, makes it really alive, but its not an LSD so spins up like crazy! Brakes are not up to the task either. Its such a fun car tho, really alive and fast. Weighs nothing too so should be great on a track once set up. All ive done so far, is cahnge the wheels for some i had. Plans are to fit an M50 manifold, this free's the flow up as they were restricted for emmisions. The 2.5 M50 manifold is said to free up 30bhp. Suspension, i'll probably get a set of coilovers. Rear axle on the compacts are the same as an e30 or Z3, so i should be able to pick an e30 325i axle with bigger drive shafts etc and LSD cheap enough. M3 or e46 330 brakes should do the job well with it being much lighter than an M3. I also plan to pain it. Haven't decided what colour yet, but ive got Imola Red in mind from an e36 M3 GT-II. http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTpsbCnx084b9_IaZYbsWqhz2Iy0NdK0svbFEEFkZMkWs164bHKLg He's how i got it. I test fitted my spare from the 7, the tyre was too big so wouldn't fit.. How it sits now.. Ive got BBS wheels to go on the back, but i test fitted them to the M3, and it was too rainy for me to want to take them off!

I can see it going for more than that!

Yeah in Solihull it was bad. Road ive never seen flow before were flooded, trees fell over etc.. The lead on the roof has lifted!

Haha, you had a good time then!

I had 5x100 VW wheels and it had PCD adaptors/spacers. Very expensive to buy, but the best way..

5x120..

25000!!!!! Bloody hell!

It needs some love!

Was close last night for work. MAybe a slight glitch.
