So he did decide to sell it then ?
That is Ashley's car and it is a lovely example, loads of valuable extras on it and worth over £30k for sure well done great carYep he didn't actually list it again but I messaged him and made a decent offer and he was happy to sell, service history is perfect and the seller himself in the short time he had it took it to redish and had the diff oil, brake fluid, windscreen etc changed.
I did pay him slightly more than he paid for the car but I think I still got a good deal in the end especially with all the mods still on it.

That is a lovely car mate. Really wanted it myself, gutted to have missed out!
I was lucky enough to pick this up yesterday after what seemed like ages trying to find a decent one.

It's a frozen silver edition and I absolutely love it, I was unsure about frozen paint to begin with but when I seen it in the flesh I had to have it and it's in good condition considering the car is 10 years old.
I will get a thread up soon as I have a few things planned to upgrade and tidy up.
Nice
What did you use on them ?
I’m sad. Love this attention to detail. It’s what i would look for
Nice work. Looks good
I also admire Sam87 attention to detail and glad to hear I’m not the only saddo, I bought new OEM coolant expansion tank bolts and a new exhaust centre support just to smarten things up. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174797346648 (BMW Genuine 3x Hex Bolt M6 x 20 U2-8.8 07119903995)I’m sad.

Maniac!
You could get them zinc platedManiac!
Just out of interest, did you grease or oil anything afterwards? It might not look as good but surely it would offer some protection? Maybe gun oil or something that will hang about for a while.
