Well to people like us it is completely normal. Others prefer to buy a brand new car where there is nothing left to do but driveSab wrote:I assumed this behaviour is normal 😀😅😂😜.MCB wrote:I so much understand the love and passion you lavish on this car.

Oooooo very nice indeed. That looks a rather expensive purchase
As I have said before. I really admire the love that you lavish on your car. But then why not! The E36 is one the last BMWs that will become a classic to be enjoyed for many years to come. From 2004 onward the cars are loaded with so much electronics that when they fail will render the cars as not being financially viable to keep on the road. But I know others will disagree with me on that

I don't know, Simon, but earlier E34s buck this trend if they are mega complex biturbo Alpina into touring body projects (but DO IT!)simon13 wrote:do 2005 e46's count in which category?MCB wrote:Oooooo very nice indeed. That looks a rather expensive purchase

I'm still looking down the sofa for the final few £ to buy your M5, absolutely lovely.
Thanks. It's was these guys http://www.brunswickgarage.compolynesian2 wrote:That's some serious Alpina love. Great to see this level of care. Do you mind me asking where you had this work done? Always good to know of good options that might be nearby.
The tech named Barry has now left. He is a walking talking encyclopidia on E36's being a former BMW tech for over twenty years. I'm not sure where Barry is nowadays - Shame!

Hello simon.simon13 wrote:Seeing as the M50 TU is the best/toughest/power/economy engine BMW have ever made combined i'm wondering why you had it stripped at such low milege.
The works and restoration was predetermined before purchasing the B3.
It is all part of the journey to wanting a perfect e36 B3. Nearly there 🤔
