Ive finally got the new addition tucked up on the drive, not the best pics as its dark (also, please forgive the tiny pest trying to get in every picture)

Needs work, and its one of the 6 Ive been chasing for a few years now!

More pics tomorrow when ive given it a clean and wipe over.

Its the 350i 2+2 so its a mega rare beast being 1 of only 6 made.

Its also had 11 previous owners, so Ill be starting the digging for information soon!

Been out for a quick blast and its tighter and torquier than the 280i FHC 2+2 thats in pieces in the garage, and it pulls like a train.

IM WELL CHUFFED!! rotatewoohoorotatewoohoorotatewoohoorotatewoohoo

1 out of 6 and the best colour.
I will look through some of the old sprints to see if I can find anything to help your history trail.
