Hay everyone...
Dan is the name, im from Dublin but have just moved to Offaly.
I run a car enthusiasts site called www.directmods.com feel free to join.
I have just bought a 91 E36 316i saloon.

I dont know what u guys are like with modding your cars but i have just
completed a 318i transplant and put in a 97 318i engine for the time
being.

if there is anyone intrested in the performance side and modifications of
their bm i would love to hear from you asap because i dont really know
my way around the car yet so I dont know what to startt with.

As for the restt of you im looking forward to meeting you all at some of
the events and talking to you soon....

-dan

Do you know what you see when you look up the word "Cool" in the dictionary?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You see the definition of the word "Cool"!!!

But it describes you well!

New Person - welcome!

Welcome Daniel. I don't think you're quite the youngest member but your close. 25 myself. What's your insurance like on the BMW? And I presume you have told them and the tax office of the engine transplant.

As for problems with the e36, none. None whatsoever. (sarcasm) You'll soon find out that BMW's are rubbish and need constant attention and €€€€'s to fix the millions of problems that they all suffer with. Of course this forum will help you fix them that bit quicker and cheaper. But they are great cars and we all love them.

Alex.

ps. Your welcome to come Karting with us in Mondello on the 3rd of September. Sign up on this thread http://www.bmwcarclubforum.co.uk/forum_posts.asp?TID=32084&a mp;PN=1

ah sure what we can do if find him and break his computer :P

@flyingalex...
Yes of course i have told them about the transplant, thats y it took me so
long to get the car! i had never been insured on a 1.6 before so they
wouldnt insure me with the new engine!
it was set for 3200 on the 316i but because of the 318 engine i had to go
under one of my parents names no being clever i chose my mother and
now the combined insurance is just 1100 per annum
