Just though id post some "before and after" pics so i can see its progress from the beginning to now. Pictures dont really do the money and effort that's gone in to it that much justice tbh.
you really can see the difference.
do the wind deflector things actually do anything?
did you get the sun roof fitted?

Wind deflectors block the wind hitting your face when say going down a motorway, ideal for smokers and the sunroof was a rare factory fit option, think the car was an ex demo as it had all the trimmings i.e. leathers, double din sat-nav etc, sunroof etc.
the before and after of the pics with the sunroof up the other pic looks like you dont have one must be just the image.
Heres some old pics of it whe i first got it, you can see it now cause the sunroof's open.
here it is a bit bigger, lights reflecting off it but you can see the line of the sunroof near the roof bar lines

isnt that tomorrow ? wont be making it mate, car needs to much work to be worthy. needs bumpers, bonnet and door spraying to make it look mint.
new n/s front driveshaft gaiter fitted and car passed MOT with no minors.
next job, will be new master and slave cylinder, followed by new windscreen and some panel\body respraying as the paints very poor.

Everyone seems to be selling! What you got? Obviously a diesel maybe a e92 3 series you were looking at?

shame your selling up
but you have a nice replacement there.
remapped and your looking at similar bhp and torque figures to the 335d
i found out the hard way how quick a remapped 330d is coming off a roundabout in my scooby.
it left me for dust lol

Shame you didn't get to experience yours at her full potential though John, but give it a few weeks and you won't regret that! When do you pick the new one up?
