Dat McLaren Honda Renault engine @1:30... So angry, lol. Love it! 

Yeah I kinda did a big loop haha, just like last year when I went from Essex, Manchester>Leeds>York... And back down again  I just took the M1 then M6, there was a 50mph variable limit most of the way up, but I was in no hurry. The byproduct was I got record breaking mileage from a full tank haha
 
I don't mind at all, I snapped them up for £100. They're a set of four BBS RC041, in 5x120 bmw fitment obviously. The cleaned up a little, but I'd say they're still candidates for a full refurbishment. I intended to keep and refurbish them myself, as they're the factory wheel for my 328 sport, buuut they're not a staggered set; It would originally have had wider RC042's on the rear. 
 
So I'm moving them on, and putting any profit into the bodyshop fund. Feel free to check Facebook marketplace, ebay, and Gumtree... But don't be disappointed when you see they're marked up  
 
At the same time, my dream wheels that I told myself I wasn't going to buy because they were too expensive... Have just been reduced in price. EUGH. 

Infact, I found a picture one of the previous owners sent me. This is my car maybe about a decade and 3(?) owners ago, sporting it's original wheels, RC041's upfront, and wider RC042's on the rear.
 

 
And this is the car last summer, sporting different BBS, these are RS740/741 
 

One of my top 10 cars: 
 
 

For the Rick & Morty fans...

Psh, manual labor? What kind of peasant are you?

Car Update(if anyone is interested): Swirl Flaps removed and blanked off. 
 
I can now sleep peacefully knowing that a little tiny flap isn't going write my engine off. Thanks BMW. 
 

I've heard good things about continental ContiSport's but I can't give a firm recommendation on them as I've not personally run them on my car.

Hi All, 
 
First post on here. Been lurking for a while. 
 
My name is Lucas, I live in the Wild Wild West Midlands (United Kingdom). Just recently obtained a BMW 123D (TWIN TURBO), which is a huge change from my MK5 VW Golf 1.6 FSI.
 
Massive F1 Fan (Mclaren) and Motorsport fan in general.

Automatic 
Angel Eye Lights 
Sunroof 
Lovely dark brown leather seats 
Folding electric mirrors 
Msport Trim

Sorry for the long post, tried to keep it short as possible. 
 
 
 
 

You’re lucky, I did mine in a Mercedes A200 2.0ltr NA diesel drove like a slug 

Cheers man, It was either that or a mk5 GTI - the bmw ticked all the right boxes for me 
 
The E36 shape is the best looking one imo. I was looking for a 328i but the prices shot right up before I could gather the money
