Brought it home on wednesday. Had a quick wash and since I had to move it from the showroom to the garage today, and the sun was shining, I just had to take some pics

Do you come to the Sharknosemeeting in Holland?

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far you take the wall with you.

Re: Orjans 1979 323i
Would love to be on SM2011, but it's very far - 2069kms.... one way I guess that would qualify for the "Long Distance" prize
Re: Orjans 1979 323i
No problem Orjan. Its just nice to drive, and we can take the boat from Oslo. If there is one meeting you have to go to... Its the sharknose meeting.

Yeah - I guess it could be doable.... If I plan the trip properly it might go... I'll have to see what my schedule (and wallet) says

Re: Orjans 1979 323i
Mounted Alpina steering wheel and gearknob today; looks 10x better now.
Re: Orjans 1979 323i
Absolutely gorgeous! Really beautiful colour and the car is in perfect condition.
Your steering wheel is as new, looks really good.
I too was going to ask if you were coming to the sharknosemeeting

Re: Orjans 1979 323i
This is just gorgeous. Actually there are alot of nice E21's about, but I have never seen one with this colour combination and wheel choice in such good condition! I actually think it looks better without the Alpina spoiler though

Re: Orjans 1979 323i
!!!!Combination of Colour and wheel is VEEEERY tasty!!!!
I have purchased the same wheel from W&N, but still haven't fitted it...what am I waiting???...(well I was thinking of a full interior upgrade with leather all around etc...So I'mkeeping it in order to do all the interior together..
