Re: What did you do to your E21 today?
Well - good question!
Taking advice fm mobster and mark i thought it better to go more standard! Although the bonnet alpina roundal is vg qquality. Have put on ebay!
Do you think it was a mistake to go OEM?
Rgds etc

With all due respects,"advice! reads "opinion".If you like it do it.Sometimes the BMW world can get a bit samey.
Take a leaf out of the VW boys and be different................Thats only my "opinion".

Most of the rear suspension and brakes sand blasted and paint almost ready for rebuilding now if the coilovers situation would sort its self out.

pics or it didn't happen!

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car. 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: What did you do to your E21 today?
Well the van bit the dust 110 miles from home in Wales yesterday. So once again the E21 is being pulled out of semi-retirement to be abused as a daily driver
And it pains me to say it but evil thoughts have been entering my mind and im actually considering selling it soon. The MOT is due next month so im going to get it through that then decide what to do.
Possibly going for around the 2k mark so keep your eyes out if your in the market.
