I put the few bits and bobs of polished stuff on that i got with the car, the lad i bought it off hadn't getting round to doing it and i think he was just going to sell them on E Bay, that was till his dad dropped him in it and mentioned them! ha ha. Cleaned the engine bay up a bit while i was on and sent him a pick when i was finished all gleaming.

S1 - Took it for a long drive, As it wasnt boosting.. the actuator was shagged, so i wound it right in, to get some boost
S2 - Top speed run down the M4, then got chased by a brand spanker M3, only for it to pass, and keep going and going and going...
Maestro - Smashed all the windows, Done a burnout, Blew the Clutch and starter motor - scrapped, all in a day
Mini - Took the horrid mirrors off... sprayed wheels black

14000+ post superhero
the first thing i did was to drop the car off at the 'specialist' for the cosworth engine conversion. the other bmw touring that was earmarked for this was written off on the way down to that specialist for the conversion so this white touring was a hastey purchase to replace the other.it worked out well though as i ended up with a better spec'd car with factory m-tec kit and leather interior. i just wish it wasnt white though as i hate white cars

My EsCos... I've put white indicators on it (front and side), and removed the white rear lights
I remember about 5yrs ago, I wanted to buy a RS2000 Mk5 , before I made a testdrive, I've asked the seller to remove the sticker on the windshield (it was about 8" )
. It was hideous...
