Nowt fancy but does the daily duties of work and the stable run.



Custom twin 3" slash cut (the standard oval thing looked wanky )




A silly shot whilst definately not being on the A10 near Bishops Stortford



Not done anything amazing to it, lowered and stuck on some 17's, exhaust as mentioned and a K&N element in a drilled airbox. Lookingat adding the roof rails from the posher models and an RS4 style rear spoiler.

Wanted to get an S4 but having just purchased (hopefully) my first home that may well be on the back burner for a while.

The picture is named M3EvoBrokenCam1.jpg. Apart from the fact the chain looks intact, I'd say the cam shaft has snapped and the chain is intact!

EVO engine mate, and they are fast as fuck!

My brother's was a good example, FSH, low mileage etc

It's an absolute thrill to drive as well. Simply staggeringly good value.
