I finally have some photos to put up, I have to say they arent the best, but you can get a good idea of what she looks like :) I will get some better ones up once i get the chance, including some engine bay shots :) Hopefully by then i will have my new number plates! For now. however, these will have to do!

The whitewall tires look good with that white and blue stripe. I like the colout too :) Never seen it before

:shock: :shock: :shock: Beautiful

Air condition, automatic-transmission, sunroof, pop-up rear windows and the colour is... Biscayablau, i think, or is it?

That's enough to make me start thinking about changing my car back to pastelblau again.

Ooooo! Thanks for the nice comments so far about my E21. She is very stock, therefore I didn’t think she would be attract much attention! At the moment, she is just so original, that I think it’s a shame to muck around with her too much until something goes wrong *touch wood*. Except for the twin whitewalls of course, and a CD/Mp3 player - a girl can’t drive without music!

as for the colour - it's Basaltblau :)

It's perfect :D Please try to change as little as possible. The mudflaps, the striping, all very cool 8)

Yep, very neat and tidy. The white wall tires are great too. How much do they cost these days? I dont mean to pry, but they must be really hard to come across.

I always wanted those tires with the writing in white, rather than the white wall, but you never see them any more either. The e12 will look good with them and a set of turbine wheels!

Cheers
Mathew

Thanks again for the comments!

Re: whitewalls - Not expensive at all... I am the Daughter of Mr Whitewalls Himself :) We have a business called whitewalls SA and dad puts red/white/blue whatever colour walls on cars. Costs around $70 AUD for a set of 4... twins and really thick ones cost a little more.

As for just having the car restored, nope, she is how she came out of the factory!
