It's a 2.0l, and yeah I think it has lived in a garage, even the carpets in the boot haven't even a pick of dust on them.


I'm located in Argyll, so let's hope hte crap roads round here don't cause me unnecessary expense as they cost me a fortune on suspension parts for my BMWs.

Watch the alloys on pot holes. They are made by Team Dynamics, are nice and light but also nice and soft. The inside edge will look like a 50p with a few nasty pot holes....

I've had a silver Sport estate. Nice cars!

Kinda gutted sold my last car with 18" Momo WRS's on them, they'd have looked sweet on this. Should've put the old wheels back on before I sold it.

they wouldn't have fitted, 2ltr is a 114.3 X 4 stud, most BMW's are 120 X 5 stud ;)

Oh there is one fault in the car I forgot, the clock on the dashboard appears to maybe have a loose wire, keeps flicking on/off and doesn't hold time.

Nvm stereo has has clock.

Common, common fault! The connections on the clock almost certainly just need resoldering.
