Hey Mark what's happening? It's hard to keep up with all threads here sometimes but I'm surprised! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261051806863

Did a sprint down in Dorset last Sunday @ Clay Pigeon Kart Circuit.

The M3 is running the V8 from an e39 M5 & has around 500bhp!

Also did Brands Hatch with a few guys inc' Mick from Pristine in an e28. The following week was the Performance BMW Magazine track evening but I have no pics yet.

The e28 is going on an extensive diet and getting coilovers, big brakes & a 3.5 etc.

bloody honda's... should of kept it within the bmw family lol..
i fancie another 540, but mildly uprated for road use e39 this time.. still with space for family life, just very hard to find a manual version.
e21 almost finished now.. back in my garage after respray little bits of trim, new suspension/arch mods and wheel spacing should do it now.. :crazy you should pop over for a cuppa and have a look..

Definitely. I'm just glad you resisted when you had the urge to sell. :)

Making some changes to MIB in the next few weeks.

Fitting these along with Group2 arch kit.

Image

Have been busy with another project lately. A LHD pre facelift e30 / 1986.

Image

Wet & stinky carpets

Image

but very little rust.

Tedious job removing sound deadening.

Once the stripping is done it'll be off to www.questmotorsport.co.uk for a full Group A roll-cage before Pristine Bodyworks install the M3 panels.
