I admit to being stumped. I can see colour coded grilles (I like) and smoked indi's ( I also like) but that's me, I'm all out..... Please enlighten me! Sorry to hijack Roddy's thread

Somthing i thought i would share with you guys :



Here is the donner car from which my engine conversion will be taken!
Engine was rebuilt for to attend a trip to the Nerburgring Germany, Car made it all they way there and back but during its trip there it end up going backwards into the barier.. Which is the reason i have ended up coming to owning it..

Engine was worked on by CHIZFAB and is currently been held there since it came back from germany till it has been transplanted in to my car!



While i was there i thought id take some pics of other BMW's Kyle and his mates own..

Dakar Yellow M3 4door Drift car :




Toole's 323 Euro Touring :




Kyle's mate's E39 540 V8 Drift car :




Thought it would liven up my thread abit as not much pics of progress lately..

Well I don't mind telling you Neil that it was with much trepidation that I
clicked onto the monkey hanger link however my
apprehension was unnecessary when I saw what it actually contained.

So Roddy, is Kyle's mate from Hartlepool?
