Well guys, I've finaly done it. Just home after buying my first "super" car. Its a 1995 e36 M3 in Daytona Violet, black heated leather, AP Racing BBK up front, upgrade stereo, FBMWSH, trip computer, 5 double spoke fully refurbished alloys and 4 brand new Goodyear Eagle F1 tyres. (thank God coz I'm broke now).

Had a nice drive through Dublin city and out to Leixlip do drop reckless home (thanks Phil), and then a good quick blast down the M50 home. I'm going back out for a spin now to get some grub. Can't wait for Mondello.

I guessed you bought that off Conor who works in Phoenix tyre. Great lad and the car is superb. No doubt you will get new tyres considering where he is working.

Thanks lads.

Thats right Kin. I'm very happy with it. It's been very well looked after. Needs a few mods though, rear spoiler being the first I think. And a front strut brace and new brake pads. Thats all I'll have done for Mondello.

Okay, here's a few pics. I had just washed it and polished it when I took the pics.

This had improved to 23.9 by the time I got home.

Go for high performance Ferrodo pads or Green Stuff.

The Road/Race pads need to time to warm up before they work properly and this is scary if you're commuting in the M3.
