It took some faffery, but I managed to do mine once I got a proper USB stick aha!

I'm Bristol based, what about you? I live about 2 miles from Redish!

I might do actually, sounds like a decent shout.

Sounds good, I am about 4 miles from Cheddar in a small village - having Redish on your doorstep could prove expensive!

Your welcome to tag along, we are doing the afternoon session, have to prebook because of Covid. If you do drop me a line and we can link up.

That’s lovely, is it a Comp Pack?

not my first choice of destination but a friend is visiting his ex wife and kids in frinton-on-sea tomorrow, i have nothing to do so am going to drive down (160 mile round trip) and have a quick beer with him.

Looking forward to the drive in 33oC heat rather than seeing my friend for the first time since march

Haha haha! Any excuse for a drive in the sun, looks like a hot weekend ahead and I am off Fri-Mon so we are good to go!

What have you done to the weather ?

Bit mixed isn’t it! Tomorrow will be better, put roof down earlier to go out, turned round and it was throwing it down!

very nice car. All the little tweaks and fixes make such a difference. I've done the steering wheel retrim, new gearstick, new storage box etc. in my E46. Makes it feel so much fresher.
Personal opinion, keep the chrome grille!

Thanks bud, I am very much about the OEM and am thinking of keeping stock grilles now. Think I will still do chrome delete around windows but leave the rest.

Was looking at Royal for a retrim but since cleaning it, finding it hard to justify.

Yes the chrome delete I think will transform the silouhette of the car and bring it more up to date coupled with an LCi set of rear lights.

BMW are odd with their LCi models - so mine is a 2009 with the updated iDrive but no rear lights?!?

This weather is perfect for demonstrating what a Jekyll and Hyde type car this is. Roof down, shades on with Mrs Sit and Sit Jnr in the car and it’s wonderfully comfy and a joyful way to top up the Vitamin D. On my own after a 10hr night shift, sun coming up and quiet roads it’s into M mode and away we go.
