yeah dumb !Removed!'s :angry: .....................ooo, is it a french poo 5 gt turbo :mellow: :lol: how long we gotta wait in suspense?

Has anyone ever bought a new reg for a vehicle before? I need to know if it effects the insurance at all (ie: costs etc), and how easy is it to do cuz i just been looking on dvla website and i think you need a degree to understand it all :huh: I fancied a plate with "M3" on, but wasn't sure if it was too much hastle! oh and another question is do you think it would be more sellable if i was to sell the car in the future? ta :D

:blink: get the ps3 controller rigged up and i'd be fine :lol:

well done on purchasing a loverly lookin beemer bud, hope you enjoy it as much as i do mine. looks tidy from the pics.....welcome :D

sorry, but are there 3 ivors from ireland or is this a 3rd welcome? :blink: sorry i got my sarcastic head on again :P :lol: well welcome anyway.............again.............i think??? :huh:

I would definitely do a service on it. If its not had 1 for so long its amazing how much difference it makes. But I wouldn't get rid of it unless you can do without a car, you don't know what you'll end up with if you get another car. If you sort the beemer out you know it shouldn't go wrong again, as long as you keep it up to date on servicing and maintenance. Good luck whatever bud.:)

i was unsure whether to spend 9k on my bemmer, and the mrs actually pushed me to get it :blink: , think i got a good un', either that or shes thinking about finishing with me and taking it off me! :huh: :lol:

nice looking car bud, looks tidy. and a good price for that as well. B)

welcome buddy, good choice of car me thinks. :D

i suppose it depends on how much your talking about, but any woman would say that......i'd try a bribe to keep her quiet ;) :lol:

welcome to bmwoc ivor :D gotta say, thats got to be the shortest introduction i've seen yet on here. :blink: :lol:

sorted. 74mm on rear and 82mm on front and 68mm on wheels. ordered new ones all round. black and carbon effect silver. just fancied a change from blue. it suits it better as its all silver and black on mine. B) :D

Definitely agree with that. Would not let it go.

well, my arm may of been twisted already, i will see wot the weather is gonna be like etc, would be nice to take the car on a long run. ;)

ooh, now it's 100 golden nuggets :o can i join in now :D oh i think i just did :huh: :lol:

well i do believe we need something specific to the southwest, but uuuuuummmmmm did you just plug another bmw forum on the bmw owners club website. :unsure: i'll sign up later :D :lol:

hi, i wanted to know if anyone has ever changed the standard badges on their bmw. the reason for asking is i want to change mine for the black and white as opposed to the standard blue and white ones. i've just done a rough measurement of the front and rear badges and the front seams to be the standard 82mm but the rear seams to be smaller (aprox 73/74mm) does anyone know the true sizes? and are the centre caps the standard 68mm size on my wheels. sorry i know it's a bit of a rubbish question but i dont wanna order the wrong ones. i've been looking on amazon as i have £40 in vouchers to use there and thought i'd use it on my baby :D ;)

:lol: how very rude :lol:

i just have one on the wrist with my mrs name on, i got roped on to doing it really. we have been with each other for about 12yrs tho, and if it all goes to pot then i could turn it into a bracelet or something i suppose. :D :huh:

thats as good an explanation as your gonna get. :) ;)

well thank you guys....does look better now its clean and the pipes are now shiny :D B)

106 miles away for me, so i might have to give that one a miss... :( well...i'll see i think as it might not be too bad to get to and it seems others are willing to go further than me. :)

Well i've done it! I bought some chrome cleaner yesterday cuz i had some seriously dirty exhaust tips :angry: , been like it since i bought it about 3 weeks ago(ish), i thought it would be enough to do the job, but ooooohhhhh no! tried it yesterday and no joy, so today i thought i'd dig out my spark plug gap gauges and got to work with the .20mm one ;) then used the cleaner to finish it up. tadaaa! worked a treat. cleaned the whole car whilst i was at it :D not the best pics as it's done with my phone, but...

:lol: i've done that...... :unsure: luckily enough it was quite a while ago and wasn't much difference between the price and number of litres. :D

welcome to bmwoc paul. :D
