I'd gladly spend a day one weekend giving some forum cars a detail. I wouldn't do any correction or anything, just get it looking glossy.

Feel free to drop me a message if you ever want it doing.

It's been a fair old while since I've posted anything on my build thread, mainly because I haven't done a great deal to the car for a while, I've simply been enjoying it.

The other night, I headed over to a carpark with a young and very, very talented photographer, Niall Lea.

His website can be found here: http://niallleaphotography.co.uk/

And his Flickr account is here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/nialllea/

As I say, he's a very talented guy and he's a lot of fun to be around, always up for a laugh and I can't thank him enough for the photos he has done for me, which can be found below:

I have bought myself a camera and will upload a couple of shots when I get round to editing them, but they're nothing in comparison to the above work.

With regards to the car, it's due to come off the road very soon, so that I can get some work done on the engine/engine bay. So that should produce some updates!

So yeah, today I hired a van and drove to Wrexham, A short time later, this happened:

It's an M20B25, or in non nerd terms, the 2.5l from the BMW E30.

It's recently been rebuilt with all new gaskets and rings etc.

It'll obviously be taking the place of the M10B16 that's currently fitted to the E21, but I'm between either running it with the standard injection, or splashing out on a full 6cyl bike carb conversion from Bogg Bros, fortunately I don't need to make a decision just yet.

So yeah, things are about to go a fair bit faster :D
