I have been infected with the Bimmer

Still for 10k or so, what else is out there with front engine rwd that isn't ancient, M3 you can allow one being 12 years old because of what it is i guess.

Think Jap, man. :cool:

I really liked my E46 and would have another. Before I owned it I had no love for bmws.

Wouldn't be gone on the E46 as such but the M3 is a modern classic in itself.

CSL bootlid 19 inch CSL wheels maybe an Eismann catback = heavenly

Good ones are making mad money though like 12k or so

While I had the poor mans e46 I really liked it and could see the potential. I'd just like an m-spurt with a nice engine next. Maybe in the future

Thats a beautiful example, them bootlids are so nice the way they just swoop around.
Whoever designed them CSL bits needs to be let loose on a whole car and see what he (or she, but come on ) can do!

New top hose for rad, 62 euro incl VAT.

That was money I was not expecting to have to spend this weekend, had planned on buying BBS CH reps for the car, with new tires...but now, I'll be DIYing a new rad.

Blessing in disguise so.

Buy reps and you're gonna have a bad time.

If you are spending big money CSR wheels all da whey

Have been having a decent time with 4 reps on it for the last 2 years! I reckon I'll be okay, not gonna spend 2 grand on genuine BBS tbh.

You probably get away with it coz you're on decent roads most of the time but reps are generally made from lighter / softer materials. I wouldn't spend €2 - €3k on a set of rims either but I would rather a good set of used than a set of reps.
