yeah i somehow dont think the E36 would have lasted on a hot day like that - the power steering fluid is still fooked from last months drifting and i think the waterpump/viscous fan is shagged so need to fix them first. Also better service it as we havent done that yet, just been ragging it silly lol.

Did you get the pics off the main photographer - Ian something. I bought the CD he does and there are some quality pics in there. Will upload them when i get some spare time.
