It's going up on the ramps tomorrow so I'll check then! The battery is getting changed too as it doesn't hold charge. The brakes have corrosion On but feel okay! Will the brake lines be obvious?

Eurgh come to it today, it was tapping its tits off, but 2 year stagment oil, not surprised!! Got it about 100 metres and noticed the temp gauge was past half way, thought I'd see hot far it would go before the light came on, turns out it wasn't far! Popped the bonnet an. The sending water feed was red hot, but the return was still cold. Took it back to the guy I borough it from, turns out it was an air trap in the rad, going to pick it up tomorrow now! Body work wise now I had a proper chance to look isn't wonderful, but there Isn't any dents! Just paint is rough. Colour correction Sunday! What other problems may I run into with a car That's been standing 2 years?

Picking up le zimzimmar at 830 e36 323 saloon in hellrot red. 56k Half leather with 'rare' style possibly! 100% standard, undrifted(I guess)!!!! Booked in for an mot let's see how that goes. Won't be modified until the 24th!

7 more sleeps to a new car

Can somebody link to to the ds3000 pads, found them on egay but I'd rather buy from a UK dealer! Around the 140 mark for front pads that will throw my face into the windscreen sounds like a deal!

Anyone know of any good Brake upgrades to e36's I'd like mega brakes!

Buggery, got the zimmar back today, steering rack is screwed, fuel filters annihilated, wishbones bent, trakrods snapped. But I was talking to my recovery guy and he took me t. A guy selling a e36 323. 50k on the clock. Been stood 2 years, started fine with a little charge and air in the tires, no smoke, drives fine, 1000x better than mine. £550 Buying it on the 20th. Going to put my coilys on it, my obc, and treat it to a Fresh service. Got half leathers too which is nice. But still going to strip it and weld the diff!

May aswell paint Brembo calipers on your drums....

Well Facebook should rename itself to Paul Walker Tribute. I hear his Porsche had complete manifold failure and something happened to his floor?

Must be the fumes of all those car cleaning products!

Yup pretty much. Steering column snapped on me mid skid, wheels straightened,Car gripped and decided to become a beached whale On a pedestrian crossing. The arb was stopping it getting over the yellow/white light box things and ripped the fuel filter off en route. Whilst getting put on the recovery truck the leaked fuel set alight. So was On fire briefly. £250 to get it recovered. collecting it monday,so I'll get some pics. Not sure atm if it's worth fixing, or breaking! It's horrible to.see the shlag dead

Wrote the zimmar off last night. Weighing it in Monday. :'(

Which 3series BMW model is everyone comparing?

So would going through a second hand car dealer be better?

Dealer ideally. So if I was accepted, would they finance me, and then I go to the dealer and pick a loverly gt86 Not entirely sure how the whole process works. Was on my mind but never looked into it.

Righteo, I am looking for a car on finance, 21, I work as a pallet checker as my main job, and a retained firefighter as my secondary job, on about 2000 a month post tax. My credit rating is just under okay, because as a youth a tried to get a loan lots of Times leaving a footprint On my credit rating. I rent (unfinished) if that makes a difference? would I be eligible? Ideallywithout part exing the zimzimmar!

Dear Mr Jardo, can I speak to you in regards to getting a car on finance? If you have a free moment or two!

Argh ny e36 is beeping at me. It's 109% not the memo, speed and temperate warning beep. It started last night and happened about 5 times in the space of an hour. It pauses the music to play three one second beeps! Must admit, the speakers might end up coming out if it continues. Will £800 wax fix this?

Jardo, I can borrow a rotary mop, what's g3/g5 compound (yellow bottle one) like for the job? I have loads of wax and detailer, Never moped a car so need advices Mr J.

Jardo, please clean my e36. Its horrendous. I have tried getting a good finish On the old paint to no avail.

So my diff is welded, interior stripped, momo steering wheel On, rack spacers on, just need an z4/3 rack now. Slidey Times ahoyhoy

Mot advisory for too much wax and clay

Enlighten me please, haven't heard of this one Was going to get it De-limited so it revs up to 8500rmp costs £80 so I'll have to ask them to sort the flat spot!

So this happened: Diff is being welded up on Thursday. M50 manifold On Saturday. Oh the seatbelts are now gone from the rear, picture still has them in.

After the drift day at Buxton, I'm going to strip my BMW and weld the diff. Been out drifting roundabouts in a dead end industrial park. Nearly got the basics, got to try transitions somewhere!
