Thought I’d update with my current dailys.

Both BMW, one more bangle than the other. The 330ci convertible is an auto. It had been accessorised with many m badges and decals, now removed. It’s not one of my favoured colour combos, being period bland titan silver/ grey. It’s a cat d, so was nice and cheap.

The 730d has had an altogether easier life and is a supreme long distance wafter….

That’s a great combo!

Looks like the E65 needs a headlight polish. Very similar interior to my previous E65 730D Sport also…

And oi, nowt up with Titan Silver biggrinwinklaugh

Nice combo.

The E46 is running pre facelift alloys. A nice set of MV2s would bring it up to date. Unless you like the current ones of course.

ETA are those wheels staggered?

Nice combo.

We also have a pair of teenage BMW’s, albeit smaller. Titan silver is a good colour that suits the E46 well. Plus it hides any minor imperfections well.

One day I'll have an e46 - such a good looking thing. Think the 7 series of that era seem to suit darker colours better too...

They look like MV1s to me, in which case they should be staggered. I prefer them to MV2s!

Nice combo, I’m running a similar one albeit with an older 7. I’m assuming your 330ci was in a front end accident when it was written off, as someone has fitted facelift wings and headlamps but retained the prefacelift bonnet. Being a 2002 it would have originally come with the prefacelift front end. It has had a set of facelift rear lights fitted including the third brake light which is a nice touch that not many bother with.

330ci convertibles are fantastic day to day cars and feel rather compact these days compared to most other city traffic! They’re lovely with the roof down all year round, especially if you have heated seats
