Love that! And the perfect colour...heres my old VX220 Turbo...

How much work you looking at? Where are you located? I know a great guy in Cheshire (used to work at Bentley so has amazing credentials) but its not cheap. You can do lots of things yourself very cheaply with a little time and elbow grease: Wrap the interior aluminium with fabric vinyl for...

A few years ago I had one of these, full carbon CR1 frame stunners. You could pick it up with your little finger. Then realised I spent more time worried about it when it was locked up than actually enjoying riding it. So I bought one of these for £150 about 5 years ago second hand and its...

Damn wish I had logged in earlier to catch that one 🤣 There are also online tools for doing a first pass at grammar etc and many are free, worth pumping your text through those before going to a human eye to pick out all the obvious stuff.

I think it really depends on a car by car basis. Not sure on that red on red combo, the interior looked good in isolation but when you panned back the shiny red paintwork made the red seats look washed out and almost pinkish. Maybe it was just the camera exposure. Ive always been a fan of...

OK here goes ... Ive been reading various threads but also scanning YT and other resources but hey wanted to pull all my questions together in once place as I do think I am going to get one of the above :driving: 1. As I understand it it is the same N20 engine in each car, each can be tuned...

My E86 with 108 wheels and a 12/15 setup Before After Here is 15/20 on my E85 with MV2s (closest to your set up) The 20s on the back definitely sit better in my view, right in line with the arches.

...having sold my second E85/86 looking for the next ownership experience I have gone round the houses and ended up with a Z4 in my shortlist! I have a few other cars in mind such as a 987 Porsche, possibly a 650i, or something a bit left field and french like an RCZ R or Megane 250 Cup. But I...

Intro For sale my 2006 BMW Z4 E85 3.0si with 116k miles and service history. It also has the upgraded HiFi sound system with the extra speakers and subwoofers. I have owned it for 14 months now, purely as a fun weekend car which you will see reflected in the mileage on the MOT history. I am...

Here is my lazy phone mount install. I prefer to have the phone within the dash if you like than perched on top of it. Need to work a way to hide the wire. (scuse the knobbly knee was off to play football!)

Had a go at the roof recently, it wasn't anywhere nearly as green as some Ive seen but thought I would take preventative action rather than let it spread and be a bigger job. Firstly gave it a couple of passes with diluted Gtechniq all purpose cleaner, this did shift some of the green that was...

Who has bought 6 of these little fellas when servicing their N52 3 litre lately? Any recommended online sellers/links? Looked on Opie Oils and already thrown the oil in the basket but the spark plugs listed are 12 quid each, which seems a bit bonkers sending out 70 quid on spark plugs. Ebay is...

In terms of the charts, because the scale is not starting from zero it exacerbates the differences. Your brain will automatically use the visual of the bars to compare, so if one looks ten times longer than the other, it takes ten times longer to do something. The point of charting is to help...

Here is a quick shot of the VX220, considering the interior originally was beige and the steering wheel well worn! I designed the steering wheel myself, mix of perforated leather and solid with an alcantara ring at the top in blue. He also trimmed the two door pieces and did half alcantara half...

Me and a Z4 mate went to this place yesterday morning, despite the damp conditions managed to stumble across a GT86 meet along with a BMW Supra, GTR, Corvette and a few other spicy machines. Cafe is great and is quite cool watching the rickety little planes taking off in the wind :rofl...

The car came with a load of optional extras, but no cup holders. They do chinese ones on ebay for 23 quid so snapped one up for the drivers side. Pretty simple install, although they dont come with a self tapping screw for the back of it so had to source one from the depths of the shed...

Just to keep this up to date, I did a couple of smaller things. Dust shield bolt holes began to rot out and it was having a right old time rattling away so took some great advice from the forum to take the brake disc off and fit some washers, did the job perfectly. Note there are two lower...

All done. Washers definitely the way to go. Got the discs off and was faced with the bolt hole clearly corroded. In fact there is another one just the other side of the hub which I gave a gentle tug off and it literally fell apart and broke in my hands so put a washer on that one too. Anyway...

I have spent a good 10+ years obsessing over keeping my cars as clean and cared for cosmetically as possible. I have spent...well lets not even try and think about that for now! I have done a little write up on the basics of looking after the exterior of the car. I am not claiming I am a guru...
