How are you getting away with the black/silver plates?
I flash the lashes
Ah no they are ok on 1990 as far as i am aware. Have them on my e46 as well. Only been stopped once with them have them on nearly about two years. Just said i was at a show and i had a spare set in the boot and they said ok. Never been stopped in the e30 with them on. 0 -
Changed the oil and filter and cabin filter today on the 320d.
Have it down to about 25 mins flat now
So easy with the little cover over to sump plug just coming off with a small screw, all cars should have this.
Changed the droplinks last week for the first time myself too, quite easy and pretty rewarding from a driving point of view, really tightens up the front end.
Also got two new slippers on the front wheels, my customary Falkens, was getting sick of having one 18" and one 16" alloy on the front!0 -

1987 on should be black on the white background (rear plate can be a red background)
1991 on must have the EU shtuff and the county too.
Thems were the rules when I made plates in the 90s 0 -

Ah well rules are made to be broken 0 -
Could you get red plates now on a 1987-1990 car? Something different like :pac:RoverJames wrote: »1987 on should be black on the white background (rear plate can be a red background)

It's the red with steel letters one isn't it?
EDIT: It's red and black, thought I saw one with steel letters before.0 -

Over the weekend there I fitted a replacement clockspring and fixed 3 issues in one go. The right indictor now returns as it should, airbag light is gone out and now a 100% working horn (on the car!!) :pac:
Quick but very worthwhile fix.
Now onto the bushings >.<0 -

Not really, my reading of that is that his own 'horn' isn't working0 -

With glee, no doubt. You've just bought him his Christmas dinner.0
