Another year of motoring sorted for the 350i. It failed first time this morning due to both rear tyres just below the limit - Toyos less than 3 years and they've only done 10,000 miles. Two budgets fitted just for speed as my daily diesel driver is buggered and about to be scrapped so the 350i is now my new daily driver! I'll get a couple of decent tyres fitted when I've bought a new "family" car. Anyway a few advisories - rear brake flexibles looking a little tired, steering bulkhead bush slight play (I've got a pukka roller bearing kit in stock ready to fit), worn bush on one of the A frame and slight play on one of the front suspension ball joints.

Plus points - no rust on the chassis and totally solid underneath.

Nothing like an mot pass to warm the heart lol
Yep, as does a hot bath, very large glass of red and What car magazine. So what to buy as the family hack? Do you think the wife would notice a RS6 Avant??

Fill the tank and have fun
As it's been my full time car for the last three weeks I have filled the tank rather a lot recently and just love driving it, more so than the 390SE I'll be honest.
