Hello guys and girls, I thought id drop in and introduce myself. Im Rik, Recently bought a E46 320D Touring. And yes it is the slow 136bhp model, but I can assure you as slow as she is I love it and I have made sure she knows it!! I used to be a VW man but truth be told, after many years of owning so many and spending £££ on them I soon realized that I got to move on to bigger and better German things. I Did own an E46 M3 SMG a couple years back and I loved it!! but at the time and for personal reasons I had to sell it and regretted it ever since. In fact (not sure if the current owner is a member?) but if you own my old M3 would love to know how shes doing? Reg is SP02 CRV. But back to my Touring, I have many plans for it and im looking forward to sharing my build with you all. I do have a very big surprise which I will reveal on Monday. So until then, keep your eyes out for any updates and I look forward to talking to you all.
