A fellow M owner in the area, Cb3749, made contact and through that Steph and I have had invite to some excellent runs out with a local ROSPA group (very enjoyable - they certainly 'make progress' and I'm keen to learn from them through further training and the ROSPA testing system )

Cb3749 has recently had Bilstein and Eibachs fitted to his immaculate M and was looking for an alignment. I've used AK before - they are an MX5 racing outfit and know quite a bit about setting up cars for optimum handling. Grumpy Bri put me on to them and I've used them with my 3.0si previously to great affect.
Cb3749 chose to go with AK and I took the opportunity to have a run down and see how he got on . . .

Another excuse to take a photo of my M

Just got to wait for the outcome now . . .

Great to see Paul at AK Automotive when my car was done. Full details on my thread.
Handling is now excellent, where it should be.
