The £900 E36 track project: PHTV

PHer McSam with a great vid on his adventures in a 177,000-mile BMW 328i. Top work that man!

If the American dream is to live off the fatta the lan' (or something similar), then the PH dream must be to live off the enjoyment of a cheap track project. All the fun of thrashing round circuits without the expense of a big bucks circuit toy.

And that's exactly what PHer McSam is doing here in a clip plucked from the Members' Vids on PHTV. Beginning with a bog standard, Shed-spec BMW 328i, he's added a few choice little upgrades to create what looks a brilliant bit of track fun. In the eight minutes you'll see how the car was as stock, the difference all the modifications have made and also when it hasn't gone so well. Credit to you McSam for sharing the less heroic exploits!

Just goes to show what can be achieved with a fairly modest budget and a GoPro. And also how good an old 328i sounds with a new air filter! For more detail on the car, see McSam's build thread in Readers' Cars. Finally, please keep submitting your clips to PHTV, we love to see 'em!
