i went to the mosque in my e21.

It was gone midnight and very quiet on the roads. I decided a blast was in order. I had a great time.

I can't wait to get the 2.8 24v out of my e36 donor car and into my e21. Hopefully ill change my mind about selling my e21 then.

I might be in a position to get a pair together for you. I was going to keep the best 2 for MIB and then possibly out the pair that's left. If I do, I'll let you know.

had a new exhaust/pea shooter fitted to the 316 after the last back box was in a seriously sorry state and finally let go thursday. had to get a garage to do it as i couldn't get the bolts off for the life of me. on picking it up the bloke said it was an arse of a job to get the bolts out! he said it was a nice car though :)

Gave the Baur a quick going over with some G3 and a rotary polisher, needs doing properly when Shaun gets back from his travels as a digger driver on the railways, but for the time being it looks OK. Bent the exhausts a bit so they don't rattle against the mountings - not happy with the exhaust, may go for a single pipe solution eventually, but it works for now. Fixed the wonky foglight, apart from the squishy brake and clutch I think it's ready to pass MOT. Will be driving it down to bluebell BMW tomorrow where the service manager knows older cars and is going to give it a once over, sort the hydraulic problems, and MOT it on Wednesday. sadly I am working Weds-Fri so won't be able to pick it up until saturday!

Tonight, probably...

Going to meet some other guys at a meeting of a Greek BMW forum I am a member.

Maybe "mikepower" or what's his username in here joins as well (E21 with an M5 motor, I don't know more, but I want to see this car for sure!!!)

As Athens is living its "emptiest" period (August), maybe we'll go for a short drive afterwards...

Will try to take some pictures and post some here as well...
