Is it RHD Marlow?

DIdn't BMW only sell the ix's on the continent and only in LHD for years?

It's RHD. Wouldn't mind LHD, but the important things for me were that it had to be manual and Touring.

The Alpina B10 Allrad were LHD only though, but those are super rare anyhow.

To crack the 100bhp shove in either an 85 16v or 1.4 100hp inlet cam. It has a higher lift

Personally, I'd remove the cat and keep one silencer but keep it to one side for the en say tay

rizzee

En say tay you say..... 08/15 don't worry about that

cat backs only make it sound faster

stainless steel bolts will make it a handy refit

Thinking about getting new shoes and socks for Christmas...

Have to say think that @Rizzee's Punto looks even better than my yoke beside the castle

Gonna be sad to see this go when it's sold in a couple weeks , 62000 miles in my hands and still feels like the day I bought it

Whats the plan of attack in style?

Aren't those Sporting engines in the GP already about 90bhp? I wonder if you could attach a turbo to it and turn it into a T-Jet?

Gonna get the alloys painted BMW Sparkling Graphite A22 and must look out for decent tyres. Will probably need to be lowered a small bit but mightn't do with the roads around here...will see.

Good choice, make sure and buy the tyres online unless you know a place thats decent on price.

You will save atleast 33% after fitting if buying 4

Offset of the wheels are 35, they stick out a small bit on the front.

Any part of the wheel protruding past the arch is a safety issue and hence a fail. It's actually one of the more sensible things the NCT can fail a car for.

Plus it decreases handling capabilitied in the turns.
