if it gets reslly quiet and you cant decide what colour to respray your car........Heres a topical tip.... first cover the whole car in cling film then spray it .If you dont like the colour then just peel it of and start again.....

MMMmmmmmm great idea about sprying your car whilst having it covered in cling film!!! aternatively cover your pride and joy in oven foil for a cheap but highly effective chromium look!!!!

bloody good idea johnny. i think the south west forum is the most quiet here. wessex region have a regular monthly meet, maybe we could join them for a day? or arrange our own (and more local) meet?

When you get a hole in your sock, what happens to the material that used to be there?

Ron, at last a bit of sense to stop this degeneration. I'd love to come to the Bristol meets but unfortunately I'm restricted by two things; I work shifts and chances are I'll be working at the time of the meet. The other is a trip to Bristol is a fair chunk of my 1500 mile a year limit for the insurance on my M5. Depending on the outcome of my attempts to change cars I'll hopefully get there one day.

One date to put in your Diary is May 9th 2004. BMW Sunday at Hestercombe Gardens nr Taunton. Plus our Concours at Athlehampton Dorset both not to far from you. Last year we had over 80 cars at both shows. look forward to see you and ONE of your cars.

I've just changed my 540i Touring for an E46 M3.

I'm still a bit stunned.

Its certainly a pleasant change not to hear a V8 roaring faster than the car's moving, thanks to the steptronic torque converter. 

But - can anyone explain the SMG gearbox....?
