    My new car (Non Vauxhall)

    Well I have had it just over a week now but not had the chance to get it cleaned properly so did not want to show anybody till it was looking somewhere near its best.

    I spent the best part of the day cleaning and polishing only to find I had lost my camera, so a quick call to a good mate and its Spankee to the rescue.....

    He even finished it off for me with some tyre polish and gave it a once over with the Quick detailer..... What a cleaning god....

    If I could find a bowing Icon I would use it.....

    Anyway over to Spankee for the pics.

    There are no plans for any mods. This is gonna be kept standard. The front bumper needs a respray and it needs a couple of days spent on the bodywork to remove a lot of little scratches but thats it.

    I took it to a specialist this week for a check up and it came out 100% ok. Very satisfying.

    awesome and standard's good, got plenty of poke with that 3.0 i would probably just get rid of the 330ci badge on the back though to make it look abit more cleaner

    Nice Brian.

    Is this another toy or is this the lady wife's normal transport?

    Does it replace another toy you have just sold or do you now have two drop top toys?

    The beemer is not officially a toy, I am under strick orders from her that must be obeyed that it is not being modified in any way.

    Maybe just a new tax disc holder though.... lmao

    Nah, don't like the 6 pot M3 lump too rasspy and not much quicker. Now if you were talking about the new V8 version then that would be a different story!

    I just don't like the e46 M3, think its more the shape than performance, too wide for the length, looks squashed.
    Gimme a 330i with a turbo kit anyday!

    335 turbo deisel for me, almost as much torque as the m5 engine with 45 mpg.

    I was very lucky to be working at BMW when both 335i and 335d were launched. All i can say is my god there fast!!!
    Would bank with Tom out of the two, diesel all the way.
